Joy to the World

    Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Christmas card. I am playing along with 52CCT - the theme is "pale blue and red".  

Those are pretty colors! I used a background stencil (Simple stories) and brushed it with speckled egg distress oxide ink. Used the same ink to stamp the sentiment (Tim Holtz). I added some red die cuts (Alexandra Renke and Impression Obsession dies). 

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.

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
