Party Birds

Hi Everyone,

I thought I take a break from card making, but then LIM asked for birds for their current challenge and I had to play along. How can I resist that theme....

For now I am sick and tired of Christmas cards - don't you feel the same way??? So I made a general card  - suitable for any kind of celebration.


I took my Katzelkraft birds and made them hold a banner, which I drew by hand - you see my drawing skills are rudimentary, LOL!
I colored them with Stabilo markers. Added a strip of Washi tape at the bottom. One layer CAS it is...


Absolutely love those birds!
You can get them directly from France HERE
or in the US you can find them HERE and HERE

Happy Stamping!

Fabulous, those ready-to-party birds of yours! I'm running out of steam with making Christmas cards but now I'm fretting that after all those, I won't know what else to create! I foresee a lot of staring at my other stamps, wondering what to do! AND, super thrilled to see you in the HLS CAS Challenge gallery!

Love this, Cornelia! I am laughing out loud! They look like an old married couple! She's the one all perky and ready to party and he's sour on the whole idea! Those expressions on those stamps are the best!! Happy Holiday Hugs! Darnell

Your drawing skills are quite a bit better than rudimentary. I love this card so much...those birds always make me laugh as do all the Katzelkraft critters. They just beg to be colored in bold, vibrant color.
I'm sick of Christmas cards, too but still have a few special ones to make, darn it. Personally, I'll be happy when all this hubbub is over.

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...
