Day of the Month Card Challenge - Duster

Hi Everyone,

may I introduce Duster to you.
He is sadly reading the Daily Beast - his favorite newspaper, but what he is sad about you will hear in the near future - my friend Darnell has brilliantly concocted a story about him - keep posted!


I just wanted to again remind you about our little Day of the Month Card Challenge  - its national Puppy Day until the end of the month. I hope you will have time to link up. It also is our 1st blog birthday and we have fabulous sponsors lined up.


Nor sure from what company Duster is - Darnell gifted him to me. The cute  fire hydrant is by Crackerbox & So Suzy Stamps, and the cityscape stencil is by Altenew. The newspaper I drew. 

Happy National Puppy Day and stay healthy!

Ja, was man im Augenblick in der Zeitung liest kann einen nur traurig machen. Aber es ist halt wichtig, sich an die aufgestellten Regeln zu halten, will man/frau aus dieser Zeit heile und gesund heraus kommen.
Also: basteln ist angesagt, basteln ohne Ende, denn Material hat wohl jeder von uns genug, sodass wir eigentlich noch eine gaaaaanz lange Weile aushalten könnten.
Liebe Grüße, Flo

Duster looks bereft, poor baby, but he also looks as beautifully colored as any bassett hound could be. Can't believe you drew that newspaper...you have such amazing creative skills. I am in awe. I will wait for Darnell's tale with bated breath

So traurig wie er schaut, kann es nur ein Thema sein: Der Preis für Hundefutter wurde erhöht. Toll gestaltete Karte (ich liebe den Skyline Hintergrund)!! Danke auch für's Verlinken ... ach nee, das brauch' ich ja nicht zu schreiben .. *grins*

Duster and his background turned out to be just what I had in mind, Cornelia! Thank you! If you haven't already done it, now you can say you are a commissioned artist! Of course, I only paid you in thanks, so I don't know if that is really considered a commission, lol! As for the story, considering what's happening in the country right now, what I had in mind for the "news" in the paper seems very trivial and inappropriate. And changing the news to current events is just more sadness we don't need. Of course, basset hounds always look like that, even with good news ... I will have to give this some deep thought, but at least the artwork is done and in the queue now and that's a good thing. Be safe and thank you for all you are doing at work to help your fellow human beings! Mwah! Hugs, Darnell

Er denkt wahrscheinlich auch, dass die Nachrichten nicht sehr erfreulich sind. Cool die selbsgezeichnete Zeitung!!!

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
