Muse Christmas Visions #102

Hi Everyone,

it's my term for the next two weeks to be your Muse at Muse Christmas Visions.


Wondering how I made this card?

I started with a bag I got in Chicago - had to turn it into a card, no way around it.....


I choose an uncrumpled section and did a lot of masking....
The  sentiment stamp is by So Suzy, as is the Santa stamp. I also added some water splatters, sequins and colored some of the windows yellow.



Have fun CASEing this - you can even go with the recycling theme....The options are limitless ;)


So come and play along! You'll have lots of time, the linky list closes at 7:59 AM EST on Monday, June 25.

See you at MCV!

Linking up with:

Time Out - Holidays (it's a one layer card)

Talk about painting the town red! It is so fun! The white moon and those yellow and white lights just glow! I've been on their architecture boat tour before and learned so much!

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
