Stempel Spass

 Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. I am having so much fun with my Katzelkraft calendar. I am sure you can tell.... September is getting into fall and fall means mushrooms for me! Of course animals like mushrooms as well, so they are completing my scenery. I first stamped the foxes and then added the mushrooms. Colored with water colors, Inktense and some markers. The insect and mouse are stamped directly onto the background. Added some greenery and in the end added white highlights. Some different angles on my calendar.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Mushpignons  - KTZ277,  Les Renards  - KTZ270,  Les Nounounes  - KTZ234,  Les Chats Russes - KTZ152,  Herbs Folles  - KTZ256  ( FRANCE) Mushrooms  - KTZ277, Foxes - KTZ270,  Bugs and Insects   -KTZ234,   Cats  - KTZ152, Weeds  -KTZ272  (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Avenue 613  - an

Hi Everybody!  I made this card with some of the older stamps from  Crackerbox Stamps . They are still fabulous and just need to see some ink every once in a while.   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. I first stamped the pig twice. Colored them with Copics. Added the wall - a stencil from Altenew.   Added the sentiment, but wiped the ink of the "U" in Hugs and then turned to into an "O". Used a stitched die to cut the card a bit smaller and mounted it onto a black background. Added two enamel dots. The stamps I used: Pig hanging on Hugs, Kisses and Wishes I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping!

 Hi Everyone, This week we are showcasing  Janes Doodles stamps on the  Topflight blog .  And since it's only 4 more month until Christmas I made a Christmas card. this adorable set comes with two different stamps, where you don't really have to do anything besides color the images. Very convenient! I stamped the little animal group and colored them with Copics. Although that took a while.....Added the sentiment. Trimmed the card and added a strip of patterned paper at the bottom. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration. And here are the stamp supplies I used:  Be Merry , Paper Pad from Paper Favorites   (I used a different one, but that is no longer available, but this one would work as well) Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  -  Traumfabrik/Dream Factory -  Basteltraum  -  Simon Says Monday challenge  - 

 Hi Everyone, I have the great honor to be Guest designing for the Christmas Craft Creations challenge in the month of August. The theme is Winter activities. How much fun is that?   I decided to ink up some of the older Funky Fossil Designs sets. As so often I made a one layer card. I sponged the background with distress oxide ink (Uncharted Mariner) and stamped the trees from the set Winter Wonderland. Stamped the cute little penguin and colored it with Copics. The sentiment is from the same set. Added lots of white splatters for some snow. I hope you will find time to play along and join in the fun! See you at  C hristmas Craft Creations !

I got inspired by the current  Sunday Stamps  Challenge and thought that set is perfect for it. I used shimmer paper for the card base. I stamped the mushrooms and colored them with water colors. Smooshed the background with distress oxide inks after I masked the mushrooms. Stamped the sentiment. Used a white Posca pen to highlight the sentiment. Trimmed the card and mounted it onto grey background paper before I added it to the card base.

Hi Everyone, I have the honor to be guest designing for the current  Dream Factory/Traumfabrik challenge  this month. In case you are not familiar with this challenge it is all about movies. Every month one film serves as inspiration for the challenge. Really neat, right? So this month theme is Three colors: BLUE - Drei Farben: BLAU. You don't have to have seen the movie, but you may want to use 3 different shades of blue, monochrome, water or underwater scenes. Black and white are allowed. No worries, I have not seen this movie either, but I love ocean related themes. So without further ado - here is my card: I used the Shibori paper pad from Funky fossil Designs as well as the set Weird Fish . I colored the fish with Copics and cut them out. Added the sentiment. Really simple. I hope I have inspired you to play along! See you at the   Dream Factory/Traumfabrik challenge This is the movie poster: Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - summertime blues
