So Suzy - Festive Landscape

Hi Everyone,

I am loving the new release from So Suzy Stamps. The stamps are simply beautiful! And you can stock up on new Christmas stamps to get you into the mood of making them! I hope that this year I won't have any problems (like I had all the previous years...) - I have been diligently making them throughout the  year! And now I have another one to add to my growing pile.


My So Suzy supplies: 



Lets get started on this card:


I used red masking tape to mask of a strip of card stock - you can see i have used those quite often by now - no need to throw them, as long as they are still sticky. 



I used distress inks and sponged in an ombre pattern.


Added the silhouette stamps with my Misti and afterwards some water splatters (its better to do that beforehand....)


Die cut another piece of card stock, using a landscape die, because I decided some trees would be nice, but the house was in the way, so I just cut it off. 


Glued it on and added the sentiment. Trimmed the card and added a small strip of PP on the left.



How is your Holiday card making going?

Look at how clever you are. These silhouettes look amazing behind the die on your inked strip. Unique and fun and another Christmas card to add to your ever growing stack of them. I'm so jealous.

Striking card with fabulous blending. Fun idea to use the white die cut and then cut off the house. The black silhouette looks amazing and really must get going with my Christmas cards x

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...
