Winter Striped Tree

 Hi Everyone,

I played with my iStencils - this beautiful tree stencil is one of my favorites


It's called Winter Striped Tree. So clean and modern, yet the swirls add a  lot of interest.


 For the white card I stenciled twice - once in lime green. Then I moved the stencil a smidgen and sponged again with a darker green. Then I splattered gold splatters with Fine Tec and let it dry. Die cut the sentiment from the card and with fun foam and put it all together. Added the little "wishes", Washi tape and enamel dots


The second card is essentially the same, except that I stenciled only once (I actally made that card first). Twice is better. Did not splatter (another mistake)


The die cuts I used are from Papertrey. this card got some little gems and of course Washi tape.


Happy Stenciling everyone!

Beide Karte sehen toll aus, wobei mir die türkis noch besser gefällt.
Warum - kann ich nicht sagen.

As you know, there are no mistakes in crafting. Besides, both these cards are truly gorgeous. Can't figure out why you'd think there is an error. Love this stencil, too. And the double stenciling does give the first card more depth but I'm crazy about both of them.

That’s one amazing stencil and I love how you’ve made it have a shadow in a different green. The splatters add the required amount of bling for a Christmas card. Gorgeousness! Xx

Ahhhh, here it is, Cornelia ... and how stunning those trees are ... in both versions! The kraft one with the single stencilling is a rustic delight ... and I love how you took it up a notch on the white one with the double stencilling and gorgeous gold splatters ... elegant and beautiful! Thanks so much for the shout-out, my friend ... so delighted to have you playing along with us at Time Out! Hugs, Anita :)

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
