Rainbow Stripes

Hi Everyone,

a quick card made for Less is More - the theme is one layer stripes. Couldn't miss that....


Thankfully I visited Coni's blog to be reminded, that Mr. Linky is about to close.....So up in my craft room I went and pulled out the Impression Obsession striped background stamp, heat embossed it in white and sponged a rainbow over it. That in itself was a bit bland, so I stamped the Ellen Hutson rainbow and stars over it. The sentiment is from the same set.

Love how you've made the rainbow going down the stripes rather than across ... so clever and effective ... what a delicious, whimsical card! I'll have that Cyndi Lauper song in my head all day ... thank you! Hugs, Anita :)

**GASP** You did this in no time at all. I bow to your expertise, imagination and skill. Such a fabulous card and so quickly. Using Ellen's stamp set over those rainbow stripes is just plain brilliant. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

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
