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.

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...
