Katzelkraft - Frog Olympics

  Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post.
Did you watch the Olympics? I did only a little bit. But I liked the lack of advertisements in the ice rink. Refreshing. Also liked the blue colors of the backdrop. So in honor of the Olympic games I made this card:

I started with making the background. Made myself a stencil for it and sponged or better brushed. Added the sentiment. I stamped the frogs and podium and colored the frogs with water brush pens and markers. Brushed the podium. Cut them out.

Glued the podium and frogs to the card. I trimmed the card and added a strip of patterned paper on the side.


The stamps I used are from the following sets:

Grenouilles- KTZ235, Accessoires - KTZ 156, Adventure Begins - KTZ203  (FRANCE)
Frogs - KTZ235, Funny Accessories - KTZ 156, Adventure Begins - KTZ203  (USA)

Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration. 
Thanks for visiting!

Happy Stamping!

These frogs make me smile every time I see them...so clever of you to place them on the medal podium.

Der 3. Platz ist doch nun wirklich nicht so schlecht, da muss man nicht so griesgrämig gucken. (Es sei denn, es waren nur drei Teilnehmer ... *hihi*)

Diese Karte passt zur Olympiade, schade, dass dieses Ereignis schon zu Ende ist. Vielleicht schickst Du diese tolle Karte mal Herrn Bach *hahaha* - in der Hoffnung, dass daraus evtl. eine Breifmarke zur kommenden Olympiade wird?
Danke, dass Du bei den Nachteulen wieder dabei bist. Meine Daumen sind gedrückt.
LG Flo
Super süß und ganz entzückend! In die kleinen Fröschchen habe ich mich gleich verliebt. :)
Danke, dass du dieses tolle Werk bei den Nachteulen zeigst. Ich drücke dir die Daumen für die Auslosung und sende liebe Grüße!

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping.  This event is going on for the ENTIRE  MONTH! We are demonstrating the  Mirror Image Stamp    which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the  Mirror Image Stamp .  In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the  Mirror Image Stamp  on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The  mirror image stamp  is  a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!

Or you can see the same thing on my photo tutorial. With mirror
