Katzelkraft - Merry Everything

    Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post.
Halloween is over - now its major Christmas card making season!
I first stamped the Christmas tree using my Misti. I first stamped it with peeled paint and then again, not inking up the entire stamp with rustic wilderness (distress oxide inks) . I stamped the penguin on a piece of scrap paper and cut it out after I lightly colored it. I brushed the background with distress inks. I added dots of Stickles to the tree. I added some snowflakes to the background. Heat embossed the sentiment, cut it out and added it.


The stamps I used are from the following set:
Christmas Trees - KTZ303, Funny Penguins - KTZ239, Christmas Sayings - KTZ302, 
 Christmas Snowflakes- KTZ282 (FRANCE)
Christmas Trees - KTZ303Funny Penguins - KTZ239, Christmas Sayings - KTZ302, 
 Christmas Snowflakes- KTZ282  (USA)

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

Happy Stamping!

What a cute penguin! I like the beautiful background. Thanks for joining us at S+F=C.
I love how artsy your tree looks having only loosely inked it in two colours. What a great technique! I'm not sure if your penguin is relaxing after having trimmed the tree or if he has had a little too much hot spiced wine but he is a cutie! We are glad to see you enjoying the challenge at Stamping Sensations this month. Hugs, Lesley

You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg.

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!
