Combining AAA with LIM

Hi Everybody,

there are two challenges out there that I wanted to really play along - one is Less is More with pick a triangle and the other challenge is AAA Cards - made in minutes. 
I figured I need to combine the two.


I gathered my craft supplies - an embossing folder by Alexandra Renke, a cutting plate from Neat&Tangled, my favorite reindeer from Dixie Crafts and an already made background from my stash. I also used a Sizzix triangle die and a little star die from Lil Inkers.


Once I had my supplies making the card really only took a few minutes - way under 30 minutes. I even added a bit of sponged around my die cut trianglular tree. I did die cut the deer 3 times and glued it together - goes very fast, too.

Linking up with:
Less is More - pick a triangle
AAA Cards - made in minutes
CHNC - anything goes, option something starting with "R" (reindeer)

Cool Christmas card design. Sounds like it went together quickly too. That is my kind of card.

Simply splendid, Cornelia ... think this reindeer must be related to your tip toe-ing Santa ... and he's equally fun! Great texture and dimension! Hugs, Anita :)

Love that swag stealing reindeer and the triangle works brilliantly for a tree. Thanks for playing at AAA Cards, hope to see you join in with future challenges too.

Thanks for sharing at Perfectly CAS. :)
Such a clever and funny and Cornelia-esque design!! Love that greenbackground and that sneaky, jolly moose. Thanks for joining us at Less Is More.

Fabulous Christmas card, Cornelia ! This reindeer is so fun, he looks like stealing Santa's bag ! Gorgeous green background to highlight him too. I just remind you that at LIM we love to see large areas of clear and clean space with no texture, so, although I love this falling snow texture, it is may be too much to be eligible for our challenge. Anyway I DO love your card and we thank you for sharing it in the Less is More gallery. See you in January with our new challenges !

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...
