Green Christmas with Funky Fossil Designs,

  Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Christmas card. I am playing along with 52CCT - the theme is use a stencil. I combined with with Just Add Ink, which has a beautiful mood board for our inspiration - see below.
I started with a light green card base and used the stencil Festive Words to add more interest to my background. I die cut two of the Tree Silhouette tree dies with white and green card stock and glued them together with a bit of off-set, to mimic some snow. Stamped the deer form the set Winter Wonderland (sadly no longer in the store). I trimmed the side and added a strip of paper (Neutrals paper pad). I also added a brad and some thread.

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
