About three months ago, Dani of danipeuss.de contacted me and offered me to join her new Klartext stamp design team. With regard to other commitments right now, I usually would have declined politely but with some brands the answer simply is a resounding YES!! and you damn sure make time for it.

Quite honestly, I have ogled at a lot of Dani's stamp releases in the past years since they are right on trend, have cute images and many of their sentiments just make me laugh. Klartext (meaning: plain language) is definitively my thing - even more so, the older I become ;) Also, my first Klartext stamp purchase dates back to probably 2010 (!) and I still like to use it. So, long story short, you will get to see quite a few projects with new Klartext stamp releases and I also want to dust off some neglected stamps and papers in my stash this year. 

A card I made with the most recent June release, is a slider card to celebrate the arrival of a little baby boy. I remembered an older PTI set with a little airplane that would pair well with the Klartext sets "Großes Glück" and "Interaktiv" for the baby card theme.  

Despite the slider technique, I kept the design relatively clean and simple just how I like it. For the finishing touches, I also got out my beloved Mister Huey Shine. Ha, another item from the ever growing stash in use 🙌

What's on your desk right now? I'd love to read and see it.
