Get Well Wishes with Katzelkraft

Hi Everyone,

a friend asked me to make a get well card for her - so I grabbed the deflated elephant from Katzelkraft - my go to stamp for that occasion. Its from the set Les Jungles - I copied a picture below.




  See all those fun critters? 
Les Jungles - Rubber stamp - French Style

I love them all - each one is so expressive!

I stamped, water colored and Brusho'ed. Added the sentiment (Honey Bee). I first did not add splatters (card above), then I changed my mind. I like the splattered version better.


Happy Splattering!

Stimmt!!! Die Version mit den Spritzern gefällt mir auch besser, die Karte sieht nicht so leer aus.
Der arme Elefant scheint unter eine Dampfwalze gekommen zu sein. Sooooo platt kann man nicht von allein werden, auch nicht, wenn man krank ist.
Diese Katzenkraft-Stempel sind einfach nur herrlich.
Und du machst so schöne Karten damit, da müsstest du einen Extraorden bekommen.
Liebe Wochenendegrüße

Oh je, den hat's ja wirklich schlimm erwischt. Scheint aber ein männliches Exemplar zu sein, wir Frauen können uns gar nicht so hängen lassen .... ;-)

The most perfect image for the sentiment and loving the splats x

You know this is my favorite elephant, right? And today, it looks like how I feel so it really appeals to me. Perfect for a "feel better" card.

Adorable...what a sweet card, so in love with that fabby elephant!
Fun card but that elephant looks pretty well worn out. You do great fun card designs always. They are a joy to see!

He's my fave, too, for get well cards, but you are way more talented with watercolors and splatters than I am, Cornelia! I aspire and I love this!! Hugs, Darnell

A perfect get well card, Cornelia! That poor elephant ... he really does look so under the weather ... though he's sure to raise a smile and lift the spirits of the recipient! Hugs, Anita :)

Oh my goodness, Cornelia, what a darling elephant image--and he looks so out of sorts. Poor thing! Wonderful colouring! I, too, like the splattered version better. It seems perfect for the state the poor elephant is in. Great card! Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.

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
