Advent Calendar with Cats on Appletrees

Hi Everyone,

remember the advent calendar I made a while ago? I promised to show you the inside, once all the doors were opened.

Here it is all assembled:


 And here is the inside, before I covered it:


It took me a while to figure out all  the colors. Occasionally I used a stencil for the background -like for the peeing dog, the jumping reindeer, the llama and the goat.


And here it is once more in all its glory ;)

 I had so much fun making it. But it takes time.....time well spent!
Here is a picture of its outside, so you don't have to go back to the original post. But If you want to know how I made it, you will have to go there.


I will definitely make another one next year!

Happy Stamping!

Ich kann mir sehr gut vorstellen, dass dieser Adventskalender sehr viel Zeit in Anspruch nahm, als Du ihn hergestellt hast!
Aber es hat sich gelohnt. Er ist sehr schön geworden - und mal nicht in den üblichen Weihnachtsfarben.
Liebe Grüße

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...
