Katzelkraft - Minuscule

Hi Everyone,

as you all know, Wednesday is Katzelkraft day on my blog. 
This card I made for the current Traumfabrik challenge - the theme is Minuscule.



I had to create this little insect scene with the humongous grass - an ancient Stampin' Up stamp to shrink those insects down to size....

If you don't know the movie you should at least watch a compilation HERE. It's definitely worth it!

My Katzelkraft stamps:

Les Nounounes KTZ234, English Quotes ktz139(FRANCE)
 Bugs and Insects  KTZ234 (USA)

Stamped the grass in two different greens, although they look quite similar here. Stamped the insects. Used bleach to get rid of the grass in the insects and once it was dry colored the insects with water brush markers. Stamped the sentiment. In the end I decided to sponge a bit of green at the bottom.



Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration! 

If you feel the urge to buy any Katzelkraft products, you can also order them in the US from those companies: Topflight StampsLost Coast Designs, or Frantic Stamper

You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
