Stempel Spass

      Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. I am creating a calendar with my beloved Katzelkraft stamps. I am so happy with my first page. Looking forward to the next 11 months! I first stamped the branches and the trees, doing some generational stamping and spritzed the second and third impressions with water before I stamped to get those fluid colors and impressions. I did a bit of light sponging (distress inks) to add some background color. I colored and fuzzy cut the little guy and added him to my scene. Stamped the birds and added the sentiment as well as the little calendar. In the end I also added white accents to the trees and a bit of "snow" to the ground - to make it more wintery. The stamps I used are from the following sets: Winter Wonderland  - KTZ280,  Les Pabos 1 - KTZ211,  Bords de Mer - KTZ256, Branches - Solo099  ( FRANCE)  Winter Wonderland - KTZ280,  Les Pabos  1 - KTZ211, Sea Side - KTZ...

Hi Everyone,  The new October release is now available in the  Funky Fossil Designs shop !  My favorite set is Pug Life .  Clearly there is a story that comes with all those stamps. And I made it into a little book: I colored with Inktense pencils and markers. Did some masking for the background. The words I made up myself and printed them with the help of my computer/printer. If you are wondering how I did the white on black - I selected a black background and white font. What's not on the set I drew by hand. The narrow sleeve to hold the little book together is made with the new FFD Washi tape . I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge - not a card As You Like it - favorite non-card project (totally my favorite, love what you can create with stamps)

Hi Everyone, Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from   Little Art Cottage   and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 2rd Sunday of the month and this is our ninth transatlantic get-together! This time it was my turn to pick the requirements: no card, no tag Now you can admire it from all directions ;) I took one of those little framed canvasses and stamped the adorable kittie on it. The other stamps are from Basik&Co - ancient stamps.But the kittie needed some friends..... You see that the bird and the mouse are hiding on the sidelines - they don't want to end up like those fish, LOL For coloring I used anything I had on hand - mixed media, if you will. I sprayed it with varnish - hopefully the colors won't come off. Lets check out   Tanja's artwork! Happy Stamping! Linking up w...
