I masked the hanging one. Used a die cut circle to mask the other one. I brushed the background. Stamped the branches on it. Brushed the inside of my moon a bit.  Added the sentiment. Trimmed the card and mounted it onto black card stock. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration.

Hi Everyone, This week we are featuring Crafty Individuals Stamps on the  Topflight blog .  I felt like creating an under water scene - it's cooling I hope! I first made the background with sprays.

  Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. Today I used one of the older stamps. Its actually a set of three Kois, but I cut it apart and used only one of them. I first stamped the Koi onto scrap paper, colored it and cut it out. I then stamped the shadow Koi onto blue card stock with the little bit of ink that was left on my stamp and colored it in grey. I used the  Ripped Fishnet stencil  for Visible Image stamps for my background. Glued the cut out Koi onto the card. Stamped the sentiment. Love that shadow effect! The stamps I used are from the following sets: Koi   - KTZ221 ,  Enjoy Quotes  - KTZ291   ( FRANCE) Koi Fish   - KTZ221,  Enjoy Quotes  - KTZ291  (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!
