Waiting for the Last Minute

    Hi Everyone,

I am playing along with the Instagram Artpoetry challenge. this week is about shopfronts. I choose THIS by Rob Bentley. I liked the surrealistic feel of it and I thought I just have the right kind of stamps to get the feel across. 

the background stamp and birds are by Lost Coast Designs, the claw is from 100 Proof Press and the sentiment is Dyan Reaveley (Dylusions). I heat embossed the background. The rest I stamped and fuzzy cut. I smudged the card edges with Versamark and did some more heat embossing. Also sponged a bit on the upper and side part of the card in white, gives it more depth, but does not really come out in the picture.


I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. 
Happy Stamping!

Deine Karte sieht ja richtig gruselig, aber auch originell aus.
Ich freue mich, dass du sie bei den Nachteulen zeigst.
Viel Glück und alles Liebe für dich!

Now this really is a piece of art. You've achieved the surreal vibe perfectly and the drama is so effective.

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
