Beautiful You Silhouette

Ok...so, I'm loving the See a Silhouette Designer Paper! I'm telling you, if you don't have this yet, you should get it! It is so vibrant! I used the watercolor side of one of the designs for this sympathy card. I think the bold color has such an uplifting feel.

Sending Hedgehugs Your Way

 

Happy Wednesday! Today's project features the cute Hedgehugs stamp set. This stamp set has some fun animal images and I've been wanting to use it for awhile. Last week I had a "Critter" challenge for my team and I figured this would be the perfect stamp set to use.

Hedgehugs Stamp Set

Project Measurements

Early Espresso card base 5.5" x 8.5" scored at 4.25"

Real Red layer 3.75" x 5"

Gold Foil layer 3-5/8" x 4-7/8"

Wood Textures DSP layer 3.5" x 4.75"

Helpful Tips:

• I used the Wood Textures Designer Paper to add a more realistic feel to this card. 
• Using my Stamp-a-ma-jig helped me get perfect placement of my hedgehog. After stamping him in Crumb Cake, I used a blender pen to lightly spread the ink over his belly and face. I also used a blender pen to color the flower in Real Red ink. 
• I finished the card with a bow using Linen Thread. This added additional texture and an earthy touch.

On a side note...yesterday, we celebrated my pup Watson's 2nd birthday! His actual birthday is April 6th but since I was out of town for Stampin' Up!'s OnStage event that day, we decided to celebrate when I returned. He had a great time playing outside and going for a walk. We had planned to also let him take out his swimming pool and splash around a bit but the evening went by too fast. Maybe we can give him some pool time later this week or on the weekend. We finished off his birthday celebration by singing Happy Birthday and giving him a delicious (I assume it was delicious...he sure ate it like it was) Pup-Pie! I love how happy he looks in the picture with his pie! ♥♥♥

Stampin' Up! Swirly Sympathy Card

So, this card took me what felt like forever to create! I had to create a card using the colors from my team color challenge this week:

Smoky Slate

Soft Sky

Tempting Turquoise

Pumpkin Pie

The addition of Pumpkin Pie in this combo was really blocking my creativity. I don't use orange,except for Peekaboo Peach...actually, I usually forget about orange unless it's fall. Anyhow, I finally came up with this idea and after lots of fuss this is the finished product! What do you think??

The edges of the smoky slate layer have been inked in smoky slate to help give more dimension. I also adhered this layer using dimensionals.
