So Suzy & Crackerbox Stamps

So Suzy & Crackerbox Stamps - Harry Christmas

Hi Everyone,

I have been playing with the new So Suzy & Crackerbox Stamps release.
Using some of those Harry Potter stamps and turned them into a Christmas card......
I must admit, I saw something similar on Pinterest and "recreated" it

My Crackerbox and So Suzy Stamp supplies:

Glasses and Lightening Bolt, Owl with letter, Christmas sentiment

I first gessoed a page from a dictionary, let it dry and ironed it, as the Gesso wrinkled the paper.

Before I started stamping, I masked of the "ME" from the word Merry on the stamp with a piece of Scotch tape (after I had inked it up)

I drew in the Ha - to turn the Merry into Harry.

Stamped and tore the paper to fit an A2 card base.

Attached the dictionary page to a piece of designer paper (Alexandra Renke)

Added some gold string and a little gold brad.

I had also colored the letter with Finetec Mica colors and added a few white gel pen accents to the glasses and the sentiment.

Our current promotions:

All Christmas Stamps are 15% off in the month of November

And this wonderful sentiment is 50%off in November

Too clever by half. LOVE that you altered the sentiment and included all those Potter icons. And, of course, you know I'd love the colors. You're really good at this, girl.

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...
