The Floralique Collection is a timeless series filled with unique elements, great for autumn projects and beyond. Also available as separate packs, but you will save big with the Collection – especially when combined with the ZTAMPF7TH 30% OFF Discount Coupon!

The Nocturn Delights Series evokes magical atmosphere filled with imaginative joyful things, wonderful for various projects. I was thinking of dreamy mid-summer night parties with dancing children and fairies…

And now, for the excitingly spookilicious selection for your Halloween projects!

I created this Ghostown Series back in 2008 and it remains one of my most favorite kits I ever made. I still remember the moment I got the inspiration to create the luminous, wispy ghost overlays and how it then developed into a full grown kit filled with ztampfilicious gothic decadence crafted in fine details. The Ghostown proved to be a versatile series too – great for projects beyond Halloween!

If you’re into pirates… Well, this one is just for you! I vividly recall the joyful thrill I felt when working on this Haunting Pirates Series… drawing the wispy cobweb strands one by one, painting in details unto the gleaming skulls, putting together the floating, ghostly skeletons, forging the swords, dabbing the blood stains… Well… see them for yourself:

The Masqueradia Set is just awesome for costume parties, it is easy to make with fabulous results! I’ve used them myself for a few Halloween parties :)

When my step-daughters were here recently we spent sometimes together making stuff in my studio with my stash of ribbons and scrap fabrics. Phoebe wanted to be a forest fairy so I helped her making somekind of bracelet with swirly ribbon strands. Bene was down with flu, so I made her a Gothic mask. I found a couple of old, full-face plastic masks that my mother got me ages ago. I knew I could make something out of them and the moment finally came. I decided to trim away the lower half of one of them full-face masks and painted it with matt black acrylic paint. Then I sew a piece of slightly ruffled ribbon on the top edges. It was a very pretty ribbon, black organza with silver beading work. I fashioned a rose from a piece of black satin ribbon and tucked a couple of long strands of the same ribbon behind it – then sew everything onto the painted mask, on the left corner. Finally I painted some subtle swirly motif around the eye holes with dark silver acrylic paint and it’s done! Bene loved it and it looked so good on her too! Too bad we didn’t take any photograph either of the mask on its own or with Bene wearing it! I plan to make another one with remaining full-face mask – when I did, I will make sure to take some photos to share with you all!

So anyway… it has inspired me to create a mask kit of my own designs for Ztampf! And here it is… the Masqueradia Print’n Cut Kit:

And thanks to Photobooth, I was able to quickly take some snapshots of me wearing them:

There are 6 shapes: each was designed to be easy enough to trim with scissors. 6 ready-to-print designs are provided; one for each shape so each member of the family would find one to suit them!
