Stempel Spass

  Hi Everybody,  Some of the products I have used have been provided to me from various companies I design for. Affiliate links may be used in the links provided below. It's July and that means time for Christmas cards!  I made this with stamps by  Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps   I have made similar cards in the past, but this is too good, not to repeat. I stamped the poinsettia into the upper corners using Versamark and heat embossed them in gold. Sprinkled Brushos on them and spritzed with water. After it dried, I added the sentiment with Staz-on ink. Here are all the stamps I used: Poinsettia Merry Christmas Brush I made this card for the recent Christmas in July sale - same technique, different Brusho colors. I hope you liked this.

      Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  This week we are featuring stamps by Carabelle Studio .   I have a thing for fish, so I couldn't resist this awesome stamp set. It's linked below. I stamped the fish and colored them with water brush pens. Cut them out. I used a distress in reinker to make my background. Stamped the water drops. Lifted the ink off with water and a paper towel. Added a little white accent to the drops with a white pen. Added the fish and the sentiment. Lastly  I added a few clear dew drops to some of the water drops.

       Hi Everyone, Today is the third day of the stamp reveal at  Funky Fossil Designs !  I didn't have time to make a blog post every day, so I am combining them here. If you follow me on Instagram you will have seen the first two cards already. Day 1 set:  ​ Garden Days. I masked a strip and sponged with distress oxide inks in rainbow colors. Stamped and lightly colored the images tone on tone. Day 2 set:  ​ ​ Nordic Noel, Merry & Bright papers, washi and dots. I used one of the Washi tapes, an older stencil ( Elegant Tree ) and a sentiment from an older set called Festive Phrases . Added some Stickles for some glitz. Day 3 set:  ​ ​ Toucan Talk That maybe my favorite set from this current release. Those toucans are just my thing in all their quirkyness! I used a stencil for the background and some Washi tape from the last release at the bottom. Friday will be the release day. There will be five new sets, new dies, paper pad, enamel dots and Washi tape. Don't forget to

  Hi Everyone, I am playing with my  Funky Fossil Designs  stamps.  I used this set called  " ​ Geo Bugs "  as I needed a buggy birthday card.... I used a page from an old dictionary and gessoed it.

       Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  This week it's anything goes, so I decided to use this beautiful stamp from Crafty Individuals  and turn it into a Christmas card.  I sponged the background with distress oxide inks, using blender brushes. Stamped the stamp and did some light coloring of the bird and wood post, staying mainly monochromatic. I cut out the stamped image with a square die and mounted it onto white card stock. Stamped the sentiment. Trimmed the cardstock and mounted it onto a dark blue card base. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.

   Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. Today its going to be racoons - yes, racoons. I discovered, that you can easily turn those cute foxes into not so cute racoons, LOL! That way you get more out of your stamps, right?! I stamped the garbage can on a piece of scrap paper, colored it with Copics and cut it out. Cut off the lid. Stamped the back part of the fox upside down, so it fit into the can. I masked the fox a little bit and stamped the other fox. I colored them with Inktense pencils and gave them the racoon coat. Glued on the garbage can. Added the sentiment. Trimmed the card. Added a strip of paper to the side and an enamel dot at the bottom. The stamp I used is from the following sets: Les Lapins  - KTZ271,  Garbage can  - SOLO107,  Relax sentiments  - KTZ222  ( FRANCE) Foxes  - KTZ270, Garbage can - SOLO107, Relax sentiments - KTZ222   (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!
