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 StampsLost 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.

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!
