Katzelkraft - Hungry Rat

Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post.

With this card I hope I can stimulate some of you to play along in our little Day of the Month Card Challenge, that is still ongoing until 8/31. And I have not used my favorite rats in a while....

This rat normally hold a slice of cheese, but it easily is turned into a slice of watermelon....

My stamp supplies:

Les Rats des Villes- KTZ179 (FRANCE)

Les Rats des Villes - KTZ179 (USA)

I colored the rat with water colors. The sentiment is by Rubber Necker, but I change it a bit - the last line should read "bought it". I trimmed the bottom and added a watermelony strip 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 Stamps, Lost Coast Designs, or Frantic Stamper.

Girl, you are freaking brilliant. Making that cheese into watermelon is a stroke of genius. You know, how much I adore these rats and this really is perfect for this great sentiment.

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... 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. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

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.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping. This event is going on for the ENTIRE MONTH! We are demonstrating the Mirror Image Stamp which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the Mirror Image Stamp . In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the Mirror Image Stamp on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The mirror image stamp is a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!
