Gilded Embossing Folder

Hi Everyone,

I need to increase my Christmas card production.....just doing them all year long is apparently not enough....


So I pulled out my favorite Dixie Drafts dies (Santa and Reindeer), a 3-D embossing folder and a so far NBUS German sentiment set from Inkystamps. This was really quick to make. I embossed dark blue card stock and smeared Delicata ink on top. Die cut the Santa, deer and stars (Memory Box) from gold card stock. Assembled everything with some Washi tape . The sentiment I had put in my Misti and stamped it on both cards.

First of all...those diecuts are beyond awesome. Secondly, your use of the deep blue paper to enhance the dry embossing and Delicata is brilliant.

Love them both, Cornelia ... the texture-y backgrounds are gorgeous enough with the gold highlighting ... though it's how Santa and Rudolph that take the proverbial cake (or carrot!) for me, you've used them brilliantly! Hugs, Anita :)

I love this card. With my diminished capability of using my left hand this is something I could do. What is the name of the reindeer die cut? And is it memory box or is it Dixie craft I? I have just got to have one! I absolutely adore all of your work!

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
