Just Go For It with Katzelkraft

Hi Everyone,

as you all know, Wednesday is Katzelkraft day on my blog. I clearly did get inspired by the Library Challenge (see picture below) for this card. I basically "recreated" the cover....



My stamp supplies:



I made the background first with a MFT stencil on black paper. I sponged white gesso over the stencil and then added distress oxide inks once it was dry. I stamped the cat and used Inktense pencils for coloring. I die cut the window frame with MFT Dienamics dies. I used an Exacto knife to cut the paws and slid the frame under the paws. Stamped the sentiment and used Inktense pencils to match up my window color. Added a thin strip of glitter paper.


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

Happy Stamping!

Good grief. You really have recreated that book cover. How come I never thought of stenciling over black cardstock...I'm such a dunce because it looks awesome. And I see you're using your favorite, beautifully colored, puss. (Actually, I'm still giggling over the "Show Us Your Pussies" challenge, too.)

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

Some more Christmas Cards...

Hi Everyone, there still are some Christmas cards  I made awhile ago and have not yet posted.... This one I made for the  Runway Inspired Challenge . The inspiration photo is below. I found it a little tricky to make this into a Christmas card, but with the help  of Neat&Tangled stamps it worked....The stitched dies are by Simon Says. Added some Washi tape on top (the headdress) and silver glitter paper at the bottom (the floor and silver shoes) and voila a Christmas card! My second card I made with an iStencil, gold embossing paste, faux pearls, an enamel dot and lots of splatters. The stitched die I cut the Kraft panel with is by Simon Says. I love this stencil and stenciled cards are just so quick and easy to make. I used this one for several cards this year, on of which you can see HERE . http://www.istencils.com/store/products/22-00029 I am linking up this card with: Stamps and fun=Creativity - Christmas U...
