Katzelkraft - Le Gambit des Rats

Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post.
I had actually made that background for the card I showed a little while ago, but I did not like it - it was too busy for it. But I figured I used it for a different card and here it is!
I heat embossed the chess figures and loosely masked them. I made the background with Infusions (Sleight Blue) and Brushos (Ost. Blue). Moved the colors around a bit.

I colored the rats and cut them out. Added them to the card. The sentiment is from the set Whatchamacallit. It is heat embossed as well. 

The stamps I used are from the following sets:
Le Gambit du Roi- KTZ279, Rats - KTZ179, Whatchamacallit - KTZ276 (FRANCE)
 The King's Gambit - KTZ279, Rats - KTZ179, Whatchamacallit - KTZ276 (USA)

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

I love this background...think it's perfect for these rats. Hope one of them doesn't get caught in the Queen's Gambit.

Könnte aus einem Krimi sein. Die Ratten sehen etwas verschlagen aus, als ob sie noch was aushecken wollen (auch wenn wie keinen Plan haben).
Danke für deine Teilnahme bei den "Nachteulen schaffen schönes".

Und wieder mal ein geniales Cornelia-Projekt, bei dem man den "fun" am Stempeln absolut spürt! Ganz anders, ganz große Klasse und den Ratten steht der Regenbogen-HG mehr als gut.
Vielen Dank fürs Mitmachen bei den Nachteulen und wie immer viel Glück. LG

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. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fiftee...
