Stampotique Art Coins

Hi Everyone,

have you seen art coins yet? It the new thing to do - at least for me. I was not familiar with that until now...Stampotique has an art coin swap and mine went all the way to the Netherlands


I had so much fun making those. They are 2.5 inches in diameter - small, but hey pack a punch ;)
I used a background I made with my gelli plate. The little monsters are colored with Inktense and fussy cut. I also added some words to two of the coins.
All stamps are by Stampotique and the monsters are designed by Kira Nichols. The blah blah stamp you find HERE, the sentiment is  HERE.


Changed my background - which one do you like better?

Happy art coin making!

The recipient must have been thrilled with these fun coins. The white background makes the creations look like three coins...The blue background make them look like they have been stuck onto a blue card (which would look great sent as a card, I might add)....if that makes sense?? x

Think the blue background makes the coins pop more and brings out all the details, which by the way, are incredible. As usual, the coloring is out of sight.

They are fabulous, you always know how to draw our attention. Those monsters look so cool, exchange coins, what next. I love love them. Which background ,well for the coins the darker background looks better but who knows with the next, next thing you know it will be different colours for each card, then pearls and blooms and lamps and accessories lol. xx Aileen

Such cute monsters, Cornelia ... and so fun ... the detailing on these tiny works of art is brilliant! My first viewing of Art Coins ... and a super one! Think I prefer the first background ... the colours seem to pop off it better ... though I do like the drama of the deep blue! Hugs, Anita :)

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...
