The Back Stories With Darnell and Cornelia - #9 Debra


Debra


When she agreed to be on top as the lookout, Debra didn’t realize there would be such a strong breeze that day. She hated having her ears blown back, especially since she had just been to the salon.



Now that she had managed to climb to the top of this pack of imbeciles, Debra realized that she could spin any kind of yarn she wanted to about what was happening on the other side of the fence. How would the other three know what was true?

In that moment, Debra fully understood the meaning of faith.

She had faith that Louie, Bruce, and Herbert would not let her fall and they, in turn, had faith that she would tell the truth about what she saw.

As she stared at the neighbor’s house, suddenly a shadow stepped into the light from the porch.

Love your stamped critters with the purple background and washi tape grounding. All goes perfectly with Dolly's tale. Does the tale come after the illustration? Hope the story has a happy ending:-)

TFS Cornelia. Hugs...Nancy

You've brilliantly illustrated Darnell's little story...and you used those fabulous Cats in Appletrees stamps. Lovin' the pink ink blending and those yummy stripes.

Oh nein ... ein Cliffhanger!! Und wie geht es jetzt weiter?? Na super, jetzt zermartere ich mir hier den Kopf und kann nicht mehr schlafen.
Zuerst dachte ich, es wird die moderne Geschichte der Bremer Stadtmusikanten.
Klasse Geschichte, super Karte!!

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
