So Suzy Tulip Background

Hi Everyone,

to day we have a special feature at So Suzy Stamps - the wonderful Tulip Background stamp!
Such an intricate stamp and full of possibilities, as you will see from all the fabulous cards the DT girls created!



I myself made two cards out of one background.


My stamp supplies:




I started out heat embossing the background in white onto water color paper.


Sprinkled Bushos on it and spritzed with water:

That's how it looked like:

Move the color around with a brush and let it dry.


Stamped again in black onto white card stock: 


Lined up both panels and die cut a circle - you want to make sure the pattern lines up, otherwise it looks funny....

And that's what you get: 


Backed up the water colored parts with fun foam and mounted them onto card stock


Adding the heat embossed sentiments and some enamel dots.



Now have fun creating your own background cards! 
But don't forget to check out all the other wonderful creations and leave some love behind ;)

Happy Stamping!

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Some more Christmas Cards...

Hi Everyone, there still are some Christmas cards  I made awhile ago and have not yet posted.... This one I made for the  Runway Inspired Challenge . The inspiration photo is below. I found it a little tricky to make this into a Christmas card, but with the help  of Neat&Tangled stamps it worked....The stitched dies are by Simon Says. Added some Washi tape on top (the headdress) and silver glitter paper at the bottom (the floor and silver shoes) and voila a Christmas card! My second card I made with an iStencil, gold embossing paste, faux pearls, an enamel dot and lots of splatters. The stitched die I cut the Kraft panel with is by Simon Says. I love this stencil and stenciled cards are just so quick and easy to make. I used this one for several cards this year, on of which you can see HERE . http://www.istencils.com/store/products/22-00029 I am linking up this card with: Stamps and fun=Creativity - Christmas U...
