Katzelkraft - Never Feed The Monkeys

Hi Everyone,
It's Katzelkraft time!


I used the monkey from the set Les Jungles. the stencil is an iStencil and the sentiment is from Dylusions.

Les Jungles - Rubber stamp - French Style

Isn't that a fantastic set? 

If you feel the urge to buy it you can also order it on the US from those companies: Topflight StampsFrantic Stamper or Lost Coast Designs)

I started with stamping the sentiment first. I colored the monkey with Inkense pencils and Stabilo markers. I lightly sponged the stencil, which I had masked and only used the sphere. I did not mask the monkey - not necessary with that light sponging. I did mask the sentiment. Added a strip of patterned paper at the bottom.


Happy Stamping!

Das ist wohl wahr!!! Manchmal kommt man sich wirklich wie im Zoo oder Kindergarten vor, nicht wie im realen Leben.
Wer ist wohl der Affe in diesem (Welt-)Zoo???
Ich wüsste einige, die sich dieses Tier teilen könnten.
Liebe Grüße

I don't know about your monkeys but mine are total nutcases. Anyway, this is the perfect card for my life right now. No tragedies, just crazy. Love the coloring of course but really love your design elements. So cool.
Great stencil background for that nutty monkey! A fun card design.

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
