Happy Holidays with a Silly Snowman

Hi Everyone,

I am in major Christmas card mood and I thought I give the color combo from JUGS a try. Its green, navy and purple. I could not upload the picture - ever since blogger changed I have a hard time with that. I am wondering if I am the only one who has problems.... Probably not.... 


I took the circle die from My Favorite Things out of hiding and added the jolly snowman from Funky Fossil Designs to the center. Colored him with navy and purple, but I couldn't resist giving him an orange nose.


This was super easy to make. Perhaps I'll make a few of them, in case my card stash won't be sufficient.

Happy Stamping!

Your snowman is adorable Cornelia! I actually saw purple carrots last Christmas, but the orange nose really did make it pop! I hope you and your family stay safe, hugs Kate!

Ich vermute mal, Dein Kartenvorrat ist übervoll und so viele Weihnachtskarten kannst Du im ganzen Leben nicht verbrauchen. Aber Karten sind auch sehr schöne persönliche Geschenke. Wenn ich zu viele davon im Vorrat habe, werden immer mal einige gebündelt und verschenkt.
Liebe Schneemannsgrüße
Super cute and fun with that snowman.

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

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
