Intrigue atc

I am once again feeding my atc addiction ...

An atc I created to the theme of 'intrigue' using the crocodile from the Mis. Anthropomorphs set. 

Not often you see such a finely dressed fellow is it :

He is colored with inktense pencils. The background is zentangled, the wording added by hand. A thick layer of UTEE is added to make the atc very shiny and hard.

Thanks for stopping by

A birthday card

hello Lost Coasters Friends:

HERE BIBIANA....

I made this card using one of the mini flying ladies stamp  from "Lost Coast Designs".
This is the clown stamp and this particular  set comes with 6 mini ladies and they all are so pretty and whimsical
I decided to use the clown one for a birthday card...but the other "ladies" are so pretty too!

I used the "Paper Piecing" technique 
which consists in  stamping first the image on a piece of paper with black ink.
then stamp a second time on a piece of pattern paper, and a third if you want on a different colored paper, cut the pieces that you like to piece,
in my case I stamp on purple paper the hat, cut it,
stamp the base in green, cut it  and place both pieces on top of the main stamped image...

the result is a raised image with lots of interest and dimension!
I added some "Stickles", a ribbon and Voilà! and cute birthday card!

You can enter "Lost Coast Challenge"  and this month the theme is faces , so go to the post for the challenge # 6 here at  "Lost Coaster Review blog" to enter your card for this challenge #6  using one stamp from Lost Coast Designs for the chance to win a $10.00 certificate to use at their website...

And today, I will be at a stamp show in Newark, CA

Hi there, this is my first blog post here :-)

I made this postcard with the lovely cat stamp. I love the way he (or she) is enjoying just by sitting on the floor.

 

To color the cat i used distress markers: spiced marmalade, wild honey and worn lipstick. 

Used stamps: more cats plate and perspective floor.

XXX Yvonne.

You talkin' to me?

Hi, Corrie here.

I have made a postcard for today's post. I used one of the Three Birds as a background stamp and Boxer as the main image.
For details how I made this, please visit my blog: www.MadeByCHook.blogspot.nl

Multicolored Stamping

Hi everyone, making my debut as a design team member for Lost Coast Designs :)

My card features Feather Bird and the technique of multicolored stamping :

The background and bird were done in the same colors of distress ink, ink applied to my craft mat and spritzed lightly with water. This became my new multicolored stamp pad, as shown :

There is more info on my blog.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day. Nikki x

Owl in Tall Trees

Hi Coasties!
Popping in to share a fun card with you today.  I started with a hand made  background created with a stencil.  And then stamped over with a large background stamp--Tall Trees.  For a touch of whimsy, I added a cute owl from the Owl Set.  I finished up the project with a metal embellishment and sheer ribbon.

For more pics and instructions, see the full post on Dreaming and Creating.
Have a super day!
