This is my 2nd post on this new blog platypus krafts... the reason why its crafts with spelled with a "k" is because.. 1. platypus crafts with a "c" is taken and 2. because my name is Kate which stars with a "K" : )
I was going to use a rainbow ink pad for the candle stick but it was dried out so I had to use the pink and purple ink pad which I put directly onto the paper. I drew the wick with a fine black marker and the flame is stickles. The celebrate stamp is from Hero Arts.
Love those stickles flames, Kate ... they look as though they're flickering and dancing on top of that celebratory cake! Fabulous! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE those grungy candles, Kate! Great idea to use a multi ink pad. Well done you on starting your own blog, and I love your profile pic :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new blog!! I love the name.
ReplyDeleteHow fun you've decided to create CAS cards, like your mum. I can always use some inspiration creating my own CAS projects.
Greetings from the Netherlands!
I love your name for your blog Kate. So creative. I love the candles...so fun!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours for the candles Kate. Now I have two Percy-Robb's to get inspiration from!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new blog. I love the name. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat card. I love the candles.
Congrats on your new blog Kate, I am loving the name! You card is wonderful! I love the colors and the candles. Very clever and so festive! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteLove this, Kate! Such a fun use of ink pads! Thanks so much for playing with us at CASology. May
ReplyDeleteYour card is fun and funky :) The Stickles flames have a nice pop.
ReplyDeleteHey Kate~
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new blog. Looks like you are off to a great start. I can see you take after your talented Mom! Looking forward to seeing more of your ideas in the future.
WOW! This is soooooo cool! Great colors! I love the effect of stamping the ink pad directly to the paper! The 'stickled' candles create a fun & festive look.
ReplyDeleteYour blog name is perfect....and I love the picture your posted. Have you thought about adding a "Follow Me" feature to your blog? Sure don't want to miss any of your great creations :)
Lovely card my dear! Glad you joined us at CASology! love Mom xx
ReplyDeleteKate, you never cease to impress me! You have a blog AND a watermark for your card photos! (It took me YEARS to figure out how to do that!) I think you are wise not showing your "real" photo online -- a good choice as a young lady -- and who doesn't LOVE Perry the Platypus, right? My daughter (age 12) really wants a blog, too...now you and your lovely mother have me thinking about it. You'll have to let me know what you think of it after a while...I'll be curious to see if you like having one!
ReplyDeleteYour card is absolutely wonderful and I might have to CASE it...I have that same "celebrate" stamp and I think it is a brilliant one-layer design. The Stickles add some fun interest as flames, too! Well done, Kate!
This rocks, Kate! I love the pink and purple candles with the sentiment layered over them. And those Stickles are awesome - they add the perfect touch of dimension and sparkle!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your blog, Kate. Love your profile pic! And your Stickles flames. That was a great idea. FYI, "kraft" in German means "strength" :)
