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.  You may be familiar with the new card kits that  Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps  carries in the store. They are fabulous!  For this card I used the sentiment and crown from the new  Card Kit 4 . Below you can see the details on the two new kits.   I used an ancient patterned paper for my background and heat embossed the sentiment in white. I colored the crown with markers and added tiny pearls. Fuzzy cut the crown. It can't get much easier than that!  Here are the new April card kits: Card Kit 3                                                                                                         Card Kit 4 Each kit comes with 10 precut and prescored white card bases with envelopes and two stamps, as you can see in the picture below.

       Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  This week we are featuring Time For Tea products.  This is a British company that makes really cute stamps. I choose the  Pandamonium Party  - Pandas are great - no coloring involved......just like Zebras, LOL! I started out stenciling the background first. Then I added the bamboo.  I added the climbing Panda. I stamped the head again on a piece of scrap paper and cut it out. Added it to the climbing panda. His belly I treated with bleach, to get rid of the stenciling. Stamped the sentiment and the second panda - this one again on scrap paper and cut him out. Added him with foam tape. Trimmed the card and added striped paper at the bottom. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration. Here are the stamp supplies I used: Use code  F UNSTAMPING   to get 12% discount at  Topflight Stamps Time for Tea - Pandamonium Party ,   Lavinia - Elegance ,           Time for Tea Blender B

       Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. I saw the the Time Out challenge has "Pets" as a theme. And what better pets than dogs?  Besides those Katzelkraft dogs have been collecting dust....they really needed some ink.

The stamps I used are from the following sets: Les Chiens - KTZ161, English Quotes   - KTZ139 ( FRANCE) Katzelkraft Dogs - KTZ161  (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!

Hi Everyone, I got that awesome pigeon die as part of my birthday present from my sister. Naturally I had to make a thank you card. I got inspired by a painted utility box, that I found on one of my recent trips to Hoboken, NJ. I thought it would be perfect to transform into a card: I used a window die I had in my stash and scraps of rainbow paper - since I also wanted to play along in the current Day of the Month card club challenge. The stamps I used are from STAMPlorations and Funky Fossil Designs. Hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. Happy Stamping!

       Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  This week it's anything goes and I let myself be inspired by Hermine Koster from Hermine's Place - I admire her card style and thought I give it a try, using my Lavinia stamps.  I drew a light circle with pencil on my card base. Stamped the half wreath and snail. Added the tiny berry branches and the ferns and colored it with water colors. I drew in the visible circle with a black Micron pen. I heat embossed the sentiment and added it with foam tape. Looks as I had hoped for. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.

    Hi Everyone, I made this card using two of the new release sets from  Funky Fossil Designs !  Here are the two sets I used:               Heartfelt Tree                                      More Furry Friends                                                       I wanted to get more stamping on this card, so I decided to have the designs wrap around and continue on the back. It's pretty simple. I did a bit of masking and just stamped. Colored with water brush pens  and then I decided to add the grass - made myself a stencil with a grass die I had is my stash. I just love the little scene I created. Those two sets are made for each other - since dogs always want a tree, right..... ;) I hope you liked this and thanks for visiting. Happy Stamping!
