Katzelkraft - Inspired by Karl Valentin V

Hi Everyone,

I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. This is another one of my Karl Valentin inspired cards. He was a Bavarian comedian that has become famous well beyond the Bavarian borders. He said a lot of funny as well as profound things. The saying on this card translates into "Everything was said already, just not yet by everyone."

I used a background from my stash. I stamped the meerkats onto scrap paper and colored them with alcohol inks. I stamped them again onto the card and added them. I stamped the lightbulbs onto the card. I printed out the sentiment, drew a box around it and cut it out.

The stamps I used are from the following sets:
Suricates- KTZ216, Lightbulb set- KTZ288, Spiral Borders - KTZ286 (FRANCE)
Meerkats- KTZ216, Turn on the Light - KTZ288, Spiral Borders - KTZ286 (USA)

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

Thanks for visiting!

Happy Stamping!

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes.... Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.

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!
