Stempel Spass

 Hi Everyone, The new challenge at  52CCT , where I am honored to be guest designer for this week. The theme is Green and Red  - very traditional colors, so I went with non-traditional stamps, LOL! I used a left over background from a prior project (water colored). I stamped the monster and dog (Stampotique) onto scrap paper, colored them with alcohol ink markers and cut them out. Stamped them again onto the card base and added the cut-outs. Added the sentiment (Ellen Hutson). I trimmed the card and added my favorite strip of patterned paper at the bottom. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting! and don't forget to kink up your card with  52CCT ! Happy Stamping!

 Hi Everyone, I am back with my weekly Katzelkraft post. It's my last Easter cards from me, for sure! I got inspired by Rosi from Daeny's Creations , who made a similar card a while ago. I just loved everything about it. So I modified is slightly.... I stamped the rabbit and colored him with alcohol ink markers. Masked him.  Sponged the background and did some stencilling (Alexandra Renke).  Lastly I stamped the sentiment. The stamps I used are from the following set: All Mad Here  - KTZ298 ,  Holiday Quotes  - KTZ207     ( FRANCE) All Mad Here -  KTZ298 ,  Holiday Quotes   - KTZ207    (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting!

Stamped the hare onto water color paper and used water brush pens to color it. Stamped the sentiment. I then took a rectangular die and cut a frame out of the card base and underlaid it with black card stock. I hope you liked this.

Hi Everybody!   Crackerbox Stamps  has a new release!  There are beautiful flower stamps in it as well as some snark - of course! I went with flowers this time!  Alex, our old design team member who lives in Ukraine, has drawn the flowers. When he had to leave Kyiv, he grabbed his pen and paper. They only had a little time to pack when the soldiers knocked on their door. We will run the new release for a week, and the money from the flowers will go to Alex. But go and check out all the wonderful cards the DT made with those awesome new stamps.   Some of the products I have used have been provided to me from various companies I design for.

Added it with foam tape. Also added some dew drops and small dots with ...

Hi Everybody!  Funky Fossil Designs came out with a stunning paper pad and a wonderful new stamp set called  Grow Positive . I stamped the leaves and cut them out. I stamped the sentiment and also cut it out. You don't need to be accurate here, just kind of give it a wavy border and it looks just fine. Added the cut outs to a page of patterned paper from the paper pad  Bright Botanicals . I did add some white accents to the paper and added a bit more shading.                          Supplies I used: Grow Positive Bright Botanicals I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting!
