THIS IS KNOT GOOD – A GIRAFFE WITH A SORE THROAT

This is the third card I have made using the Back on Your Feet Stamp Set. While I thought the sloth and the turtle were totally cute, the giraffe with its knotted neck is the sad winner.

All three cards featured a Basic White card base. For this card, I added a Misty Moonlight layer that was embossed using the dots from the Checks & Dots Embossing Folder.

Thenk I stamped the giraffe and coloured it with the Stampin’ Blends I have listed below in the product list.

I think that “SIGH … OUCH!” is the perfect for the front of the card – it really says everything.

For the envelope, I stamped and coloured the giraffe from the knot up.

For the inside of the card, “This is knot good” was the best way to finish the message.

I coloured some of the silver circles from the Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials using Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blends.

Now I am down to six stamp sets that I need to use before the end of the year.

Until next time, happy stamping.

HOPE YOU’RE BACK ON YOUR FEET SOON

Today’s card, using the Back on Your Feet Stamp Set, features the image of a turtle on its shell with its feet flailing about in the air.

I chose a Basic White card base and decided Mossy Meadow would be a great colour for this card.

The Mossy Meadow layer was given texture by using the checks folder from the Checks & Dots Embossing Folders.

The turtle was stamped using the Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and then coloured using Stampin’ Blends. I used one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut out the image.

I also used the Dark Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blend to colour some white Baker’s Twine from the Essentials Pack. The twine was then wrapped around the Basic Whiye layer and tied in a knot.

The sentiment was stamped and cut using the same Stitched Rectangle Die but was cut a second time to make it a smaller size.

‘Ouch’ was stamped inside the card and on the envelope.

I used coordinating Stampin’ Blends to colour the some of the round silver Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials. They were then added to the front of the card.

It has been fun using this stamp set because the images are perfect to bring a smile to the face of the person in need of cheering up.

I have a third card to share with you tomorrow and I hope that like it.

Until then, happy stamping.

FACEBOOK LIVE CARD

Hello and welcome to my Saturday post. I’m pleased that you have been able to pop by.

Yesterday I shared a card using the birds image from the Classic Cloche Stamp Set. During my Facebook Live, two days ago, I used the same stamp sets and layout to create a Christmas card.

This is very quick post today to share that card with you – no backdrop behind the card for the photos and no product list – I know, very cheeky!

I chose to use Balmy Blue, Basic White, Real Red and Shaded Spruce for this version; as well as a few Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels. The ribbon is the Real Red Mini Ruffled Ribbon.

As you can see there is no backdrop today just my very messy desk.

I hope you like this version of the card.

Until next time, happy stamping.
