Chalkboard Technique with Katzelkraft

Hi Everyone,
It's Katzelkraft time!


My stamp supplies:


I stamped everything with Versamark and heat embossed it in white.


 I colored the stamps first with white paint



Used white ink and smudged it around the stamped areas. Gives you that chalkboard effect.


Colored the stamped areas with water brush pens.


Added a strip of patterned paper at the bottom after I trimmed the black card base. and glued on a bow made with Bakers Twine.

Your card is awesome and I love that sentiment used on it.

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.
