The Less is More challenge, this week is yellow and grey. So what better than a rat with cheese? I did allow for rosey cheeks and tail, I hope that's ok. I used a new Katzelkraft stampset called Les rats des villes. I chose the grumpy one as I thought that was funny with the sentiment... I stamped him on Crafter's Companion Neenah paper with Simon Says Stamp Intense black ink and I colored him with my Spectrum Noir markers. I did the sentiment in Photoshop, I started with those and then cut up the sheet and then stamped. I free handed the block of cheese. I then mounted the panel onto the cardbase with tape runner. For more information on the Less is More challenge, see this. Updated May 9th:
Altijd leuk om te maken: grappige kattenkaarten. En de katten van Katzelkraft kun je ook zo heerlijk inkleuren. Ik maakte er twee kaarten mee. I love to to make funny cat cards. And the Katzelkraft cats are great to colour too. I made two cards with this stamp set. De eerste is een box card, gemaakt voor een jarige buurvrouw. Ik heb hier gewerkt met design-papiertjes voor de onderste helft van het doosje, iets wat ik zelden doe. The first one is a card-in-a-box or box card, for a neighbour who had her birthday. I made the bottom half with design paper, something I rarely do. Op de achterwand zijn cadeautjes, een cupcake en een muis gestempeld. Het is toch wat lastig op de foto te krijgen, de details en lagen op zo'n 3d kaart. On the background I stamped presents, a cup cake and a mouse. It is difficult to get it all on a picture, all the details on a 3d card. De tweede is een kaart voor mijn nicht. Elk jaar als onze oma jarig is, krijg ik van haar een zelfgemaakte kaart. Deze heb ik onlangs naar haar gestuurd. The second one is a card for my cousin. Every year on our grandmother's birthday she brings me a handmade card. I sent her this one in return. En bij de kaart maakte ik een een versierde envelop, dat is leuk op de mat én voor de postbode! And with the card I made a matching envelope. That is nice to find on your door mat and for the post man as well! De mini-bloemenstempeltjes zijn van Art Journey! The mini flower stamps are from Art Journey! Bedankt voor je bezoekje Thanks for looking! Groetjes, Ellen
Pets is the name of the game this time at Twofer Card Challenge! We've always had dogs in my family, so I'm partial to dog stamps. Our dog, Remmington, is a little mix breed that we got ten years ago when our girls were 6 and 4. He was supposed to be a family dog, but he's really a mama's dog. I wanted to use many of these fun dogs on both cards, so the way I changed them up was patterned paper and ink blending verses white with water coloring. More obvious is the difference in colors and positioning. This pyramid of dogs was colored with Copics and fussy cut. Clouds were stenciled in the sky, and the fence is a piece of dp that I zig-zag cut and shaded a bit with a Copic marker. The sentiment was printed from the computer onto green cs, inked a bit, and die cut to create the ground. On this next card, I moved away from traditional dog colors. Each dog was colored with Copics, but the balloons and ground were painted with Zig CCRB pens. I tied a string to each of the dogs, cutting slits if need be, and adhered the end under each balloon. The strings that "tie" to the balloons were just glued to the balloon back and wrapped around the end part to look as though the entire string was tied there. Here's our little Remmington: We cropped around his photo to mimic a print we found to go in our daughter's room. So what's your favorite pet? I hope you will join in the fun with us. You can find all of the information and much more inspiration from the rest of the design team over at the Twofer Card Challenge blog.

Hi everyone! New Tuesday and new Katzelkraft project! For today's card I used one of the quirky dogs, designed by Dainius Šukys. I am sure you have seen some fabulous creations with his funny animals by now! I stamped the dog on a paper colored with PaperArtsy Infusions. Colored it additionally with watercolors and lightened some spots with a white pen. I doodled the areas for the sentiment, colored them slightly blue and stamped in the text. Inked the edges of the panel with black and adhered it to a blank card. Hope you like it. - See you next Tuesday with a new Katzelkraft inspiration! ;) I used: ...just click on the images to go to the store and see them in full size.

Happy Friday Friends! This weeks challenge over at Just Add Ink is all about colour! Jo has come up with this unusual combination, but l have to say I Love It! I would never have thought to combine these colours, but l really enjoyed inking up the 'Snailed It' images and colouring them with Stampin Blends! For the Coastal Cabana, l used a somewhat dry old original and smoothed it out with the closest colour l had which was Pool Party. I also couldn't resist using another "Picture This" diecut to display them on. Lots of lovely inspiration from the design team, so don't forget to click the link and have a look at the projects they have shared. Thanks for stopping by! All supplies used are Stampin Up!
