Twofer #33 - Stars

 Hi Everybody,

it has been ages that I played along with the Twofer challenge, but this is the last challenge this year and I just needed to be part of this!

The theme is stars.


For my first card I used a background paper by Funky Fossil Designs and stitched stars by Lil Inkers. The sentiment is from Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. I heat embossed it. I added little bells on silver thread and some sparkly gems.





For my second card I used the leftover stars from card #1 and the delightful Funky Fossil Designs stamps from the set Christmas Characters


I colored them with Inktense and markers and added splattered "snow".

Both Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps and Funky Fossil Designs  are generous sponsors for this challenge. Please check out those companies and support them, if you like what you see!

Two wonderful ways of using the stars. Gorgeous card designs.

Brilliant Twofer and you used up all your leftovers. Those bells on the first card are a lovely touch. The scene is is such a sweet one, especially with your charming reindeer's expression.

Two excellent Christmas card Twofers, Cornelia, filled with lots of shine and schparkle! I love that blue bg paper on your first design and how you added those sweet little jingle bells! And your second design is a fun and funny scene! That bug-eyed reindeer just karacks me up! (I love that those stars are double-stitched.) Thank you so much for playing in TCC #33! Keep well! Hugs, Darnell

While I know Twofer #33 is all about the stars, and yours are wonderful, I adore those little jingle bells to bits!! I would have never thought to do that on a card, and they play among your stars' centers so well. Such a pretty (and jingly) Christmas card! LOVE those characters on your second card. That reindeer cracks me up! Those leftover stars fit perfectly in your design, too. Great cards! Thank you so much for joining us at The Twofer Challenge. Stay safe. Bev

Great Twofer set. I love your coloring card with a snowman. This reindeer looks perfect. In the first tab, the background looks stunning. Both cards are unusual.

What a fantastic twofer, Cornelia! Great choice of yummy DP backing the stars on your stylish, graphic first card ... love those tiny jingle bells hanging into the negative space! What a fun, cute scene on your second design ... those images are brilliant (the reindeer with his red nose ... hilarious!) ... who wouldn't be merry around these guys under a starry snowy sky! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer! Hugs, Anita :)

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...
