Smart Ass

Hi Everyone,
It's Katzelkraft time!


I got a big, fat Hermes catalog in my mail. Not sure how they got my address. but they must be utterly confused as high fashion is not ever on my radar... but it had some pretty pictures in it and I hate to throw things out. And the only thing I ever think of is how I can turn things into cards....Well here we go!
I added the pig and the donkey from the new animal set. Colored them and fussy cut them. The sentiment caused me a bit of a headache, but I finally settled on the word smart and not having one in my huge stash of stamps I printed it out on my computer....



If you feel the urge to buy any Katzelkraft products, you can also order them in the US from those companies: Topflight StampsFrantic Stamper or Lost Coast Designs

Happy Stamping!

First...LOVE the sentiment. I have a serious crush on both the donkey and pig so this card is right up my alley. Clever to use the catalog page for the background. Really makes those animals pop.

Great recycling, Cornelia. The stamped, coloured and cut creatures are great and have great humour. Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players this week.
Love this Cornelia - fabulous layering of images to create your picture, it reminds me of a scene from Animal Farm! Thanks for playing along with my theme challenge over at The Paper Players this week!

So cute! I often wonder how my name got on the DeBeers mailing list. Maybe there is a Da Beers list out there that I was supposed to be on.

Great way to use your images and so nicely executed. Thanks for sharing with us at Shopping Our Stash!

Hugz,

Very cool card! Great use of the catalog... isn't is weird the way we get certain catalogs? These stamps are awesome, and I love the funny card! Thanks for sharing at SOS this week.

What a great way to upcycle those fancy catalogs! Love this card, and not only because it has 'just' a touch of snark on it! LOL! Thanks for joining us at Shopping Our Stash!

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.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping.  This event is going on for the ENTIRE  MONTH! We are demonstrating the  Mirror Image Stamp    which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the  Mirror Image Stamp .  In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the  Mirror Image Stamp  on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The  mirror image stamp  is  a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
