Katzelkraft Rat Hole

Hi Everyone,

It's Katzelkraft time!
Playing with my favorite rats and a hole...... A rathole, if you will!


This card required a bit of masking. The rest was easy - Inktense pencils. The letters are die cuts (Papertrey) and the tiny sentiment is from STAMPlorations.


You think you need those stamps?

You can get them directly from France: rats, paper hole
or in the US at Topflight Stamps, Frantic Stamper or Lost Coast Designs


Happy Masking!

Craft Stamper TIMI Challenge March - take a stamp

Hahaha!! Oh, I adore this rats!!! I wouldn't want them crawling anywhere near or inside my house but, I can't help but smile at these group of pals just living it up in a hole somewhere!!!!!
Fabulous coloring Cornelia and extraordinary masking!! I must go check out that hole image, I've never seen it on Katzelkraft, but then again, maybe I haven't look carefully enough.
Thank you for sharing.
XO,
Maria.

Oh. My. God. Pure, unadulterated genius. What a wonderful family in their rathole home. I am suitably impressed with your masking and coloring. Bet these rats smell the same winner I do.

Diese Karte ist mal wieder ein absolutes Sahnestück! Das könnte auch ein Kinoplakat sein.
Ich bin total begeistert, obwohl ich Ratten nicht wirklich mag. ;)

Love that torn stamp, perfect home for those rats. Have to say I'm not usually a fan of the furry quadrupeds, they make rather a mess in our hay barn but these are quite fun.
Thanks for linking up at HLS CAS too. :)

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
