Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps - Thanks for Making Me Smile

  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. Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps  had a  Mini Release  this month.  I like cards you just can send out without a specific occasion. And this is one of them. Sometimes we just want to send a card and not wait for birthday or Christmas to come around. I already used two of the new stamps, you can see them  HERE  and HERE . So this time I reached for the  Smile . I paired it up with  Spot the Dog . I think they both go very well together. That dog always makes me smile when I look at him! I used a wonky frame, going with the wonky circles of the designer paper on the side ( Funky Fossil Designs ). Here are all the new stamps:  Thanks for visiting!

Katzelkraft - Chocolate is the Answer

       Hi Everyone, I wanted to play along with the Dream Factory challenge , where the theme is "Chocolat" - it was such a great movie - if you didn't see it, you should! You can see the movie poster below. I so happens that Katzelkraft has just the right sentiment for this - its from the set Be Batman. Needed something to accompany it and thought this cheeky meerkat is just right. I also managed to squeeze in the cake from the set Tea Time. The stamps I used are from the following sets: Suricates  - KTZ 216,  Be Batman  -  KTZ204,  Tea Time KTZ200  (FRANCE) Meerkats - KTZ216,  Fun Quotes  -  KTZ204, Tea Time KTZ200  (USA) I colored with Inktense and markers. Added my favorite strip of patterned paper on the side and also added some Nymo thread for more interest. Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration. In the meantime I wish you a Happy New Year and all the best for 2021...

Funky Fossil Designs - New February Release Day 4

    Hi Everyone, Today is the fourth day of the stamp reveal from  Funky Fossil Designs !   We are introducing " ​ Feeling Sheepish" designed by the wonderful Donna Gray. Now you may think sheep and yes, those are all sheep on this set, but I turned one of them into a cow - I only hope is Donna (who designed this set will forgive me......) I masked and stamped the moon. I made a water color background.

    Hi Everyone, Today is the third day of the stamp reveal from  Funky Fossil Designs !   We are introducing Engine Room,  ​ Patina Paper, Washi and Cogs Dies .  This stamp set is very Steampunk and vintage - both not really my thing.
