Imagine... La vie Parisienne

Hello everyone,

and welcome to my weekly blogpost for Katzelkraft. Today I have a card to show you. I have used somewhat older stamps because I still really like these..

The background is a gelli print from my stash. I added the swirl and sentiment and heat embossed it with powder that went well with the background. I then added the script and white embossed it. I stamped the Zebra on a piece of pattern paper and cut him out. I tore the bottom to make it look more seamless. I adhered him over the sentiment and lastly added the word "imagine" which is a sticker by Tim Holtz and  a doodle line around part of the card. The panel then was glued to a card. 

I have used the following stamp sets:

KTZ141  - Les Anthropomorphes Zebra

KTZ142 - Les Anthropomorphes - Rabbit

KTZ180 - Baroque

Thank you so much for stopping by today !

Wonderland

Hello everyone,

For my second post for UmWow Studio Creative Team, I have made a postcard.

This was so much fun to make ! 

I used a gelli printed background and added just one stamp at the bottom as 'ground' to put my scene one. I then added black lines and stitching around the edges of the card and wrapped some twine around it. 

Next I started on the chip boards. The stars were heat embossed with a light yellow embossing powder by Lindy's Stampgang. The stem of the flower was coloured with Copic Markers. The flower head was white embossed and then coloured over the top, partly with Copics partly with Faber Castell Big Brush Markers. The whole think was then clear embossed. 

The little rabbits were painted with gesso and then coloured with coloured pencils. Aren't they cute....

I arranged everything on the card until I was happy and then glued everything down. 

Lastly I stamped the word 'Wonderland' on a piece of paper and stapled it to the card.

That was it ! 

I used the following chipboards:

Hare

Daisy

Star Confetti

All stamps I used are by VivaLasVegaStamps!

Thank you so much for stopping by ! 

Wot???? No colour ??

Hello everyone,

and happy Stampotiqe Challenge Day ! It is Nellie's turn today and she challenged us to only use black and white. As you can imagine that is a real struggle for me as I love, love colour !
This is what she said :

"I challenge you to use only black and white in your project or card". 

Here's mine:

In the end I had fun making this postcard although it wasn't easy. I started with a piece of black card stock and heat embossed the script on it with extra fine white embossing powder by WOW. I made some flags by sticking black and white washi tape on card stock and cutting them into shape. I stapled these to the card with my tiny attacher. Next I stamped 'Checkers', and cut him out leaving a small white border all around so he would stand out more. I adhered him onto the card. 

Lastly I typed the sentiment, went around it with a fine tipped pen and adhered it to the card too. The black panel was then adhered onto a white postcard base. 

I only used two stamps for this :

Checkers

Romantic text
