Katzelkraft - Broken Crayons

Hello everyone!

It's Tuesday and I'm back with a new Katzelkraft creation, for which I used stamps from the "Les Mordants" set, and a sentiment from the "Relax, Citations Anglaises" set.  (see below)

After a lot of masking, stamping and coloring I am now quite satisfied with the result! I made some color scribbles with the edge of an old credit card and added two narrow strips of Washi tape at the bottom. 

This is my first version - I prefer the portrait format! Which one do you prefer?

See you next Tuesday with a new Katzelkraft inspiration!

Santa's List Day - DotMCC Challenge #22

Hello everyone!

Time for a new challenge at Day of the Month Card Club! This month we are celebrating 

Santa's List Day

December 4th

Santa's List Day is the day each year when Santa makes his list of children that have been naughty or nice, so he knows what to bring them for Christmas. Santa learns who has been naughty or nice after hearing from his elves. They visit people's houses from just after Thanksgiving, until Christmas Eve, and report back to Santa each night about who has been naughty or nice.

Presents or coal? 

What do you think you’ll find under your Christmas tree in 2020?

Apparently you've been nice, because it says on my card that you're on Santa's good list! 😉

I stenciled thick blue snowflakes on the background. Then I stamped Santa and the gifts on cardstock, colored them with alcohol markers and cut them out fussy. Actually, the presents were stacked, but I didn't like it that way, so I cut them into individual packages and stuck them next to Santa. 

Santa's list is hand drawn. The sentiment was found on Pinterest.

Hope you will all be on Santa's nice list!!

Have Fun!

Katzelkraft - The best is yet to come

Hello everyone!

It's Tuesday and I'm back with a new creation from Katzelkraft. 

Today, I dared the little, big-eyed thing of the series "Les Scargots". (see below)

Frankly, I don't know what kind of creature it is, maybe you have un idea??

For the background I sponged the edges of the card and stenciled stars with Distress Oxide inks. Stamped the sentiment, the little monster and the Christmas tree. I had to mask a little bit for the Santa hat. 

The scarf and the baubles were stamped on cardstock, fussy cut and glued on. I colored with alcohol markers and finished the card with a narrow strip of black cardstock.

Whatever this animal is, I hope you like it!

See you next Tuesday with a new Katzelkraft inspiration!

Life is a book ...

Hello everyone!

It's half time at the Dream Factory, and I want to remind you of our current challenge "You've Got Mail"

Thanksgiving, Autumn, Christmas, Books and Love are the keywords for this challenge.

!!!...we also have a DT call until the end of the year and we hope to find some new members to reinforce our team.

Found the sentiment on Pinterest and thought it would fit well with the pile of books!

I stencilled the background with Wild Honey Distress Oxide and stamped then the sentiment, the light bulbs anf the books. I colored with alcohol markers. Hope you like it.

You can still play along until December 15th.

Have Fun!!

Joyeux Noël - Rouge ou Noir?

Hello everyone!

It is Saturday, and Saturday is for 52 Christmas Card Throwdown on my blog! 

For this week's challenge we would like to see Gilding Flakes or foil on your cards.

The stamp and the gilding are quite imposing, so I kept the card very simple. 

Just a few golden splashes and a sentiment on the plain background.

I stamped the image with Essential Glue Pad (Tzukineko) and applied ultra fine gold glitter 'cause I don't have gilding flakes, then I gently removed the excess with a blush brush.

I made a second version in black - which one do you prefer?

On this one I used VersaMagic Cloud White for the sentiment 

and a darker gold glitter for the snowflake.

...not easy to capture the golden shine!

Happy stamping and have fun with all those golden things!!

Magical Merry Christmas

Hello everyone!

This week I am invited as a guest designer  at C.R.A.F.T. Challenge. The theme is: Winter.

For this guest designer event I got a digi stamp from their sponsor All Dressed Up, 

which I of course used for my card. 

My idea for this challenge was a shaker card. 

I used blue cardstock for the background, heat embossed the sentiment in white, and stenciled stars all around. Then I cut out the frame, covered it with acetate and added 3D adhesiv foam. Filled it with all the glitter stuff and glued it to the background panel. I colored the little girl with alcohol markers and crayons, cut it fussy and glued it to the card. Replaced the snowflakes with blue rhinestones.  Voilà, isn't that beautiful?

I hope you like it and you will have a lot of fun with the winter theme!
