STAMPlorations Things with Wings Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

we at STAMPlorations are having a spring blog hop featuring the new stamps and dies - you are going to love them!

 
The theme is Things with Wings - even if there are no wings on flowers....


I have two cards for you. For the first one I used those pretty trendy flower dies. I sprayed watercolor paper with Dylusion inks, let it dry and die cut a bunch of flowers. Arranged them on my card with a dark grey panel under neath. Added the word die - also brand new. I used fun foam for it.
For the grey panel I also used the stitched nesting die to give it more interest.

For my second card I used the butterfly row die and stamped it with Versamark black ink. Added watercolors and let it dry. I also used the  largest of the Stitched Nesting Dies and added the word die sentiment - love those different fonts!

I think your flowers do have wings, because they've flown straight to my heart! LOVE your bold blooms! As for your butterflies...swoon! Apologies for falling behind yet again, but this time the 'big move' is to blame! LOVE x LOVE my new house! Still so much to do, including the back-and-forth drives to deal with the townhouse. Anyway...a dynamic duo here! I'm so glad to be designing alongside you for this hop!
Hugs~c

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

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
