Katzelkraft - Time To Make Merry

Hi Everyone,

as you all know, Wednesday is Katzelkraft day on my blog. 
For today's post I got inspired by the current 52CCT challenge - the theme is under the Sea.


And as I am terribly behind in Christmas card making I thought I take advantage of that.

I stamped the Santa hat, masked it and then stamped the fish and masked it. Made the background with distress oxide inks and a stencil. The light chain is from the set Noel sleigh. I used bleach to get the stripes lighter. The sentiment is by Ellen Hutson.

So cute and clever to put the Santa hat on that fish. I love this idea.

That fantastically colored fish looks so pleased to be wearing that Santa hat...not! Despite that, the card is simply brilliant. Love the sun rays in your beautifully blended sea. The sentiment tied in with the string of lights is perfect for adding a festive note.

The Santa fish doesn't exactly look merry. I hope that changes soon. I like your take on our theme Under the Sea. Thanks for playing along with us at 52CCT.

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! Mirror Image stamp ,  Two Cats in a Tree If you want a video tutorial on how to do this I can highly recommend you watch THIS VIDEO on youtube. Explains it all in very little time! Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
