Sending Birthday Wishes

Hello there! Today I'm sharing a card I created using this fabulous sketch over at Sunday Stamps Challenge:

This card features the new Wildlife Wonder stamp set and New Horizons DSP from Stampin' Up! These goodies are so gorgeous!!!

 

I love that the bear is a single stamp and achieves so much detail! There aren't any coordinating dies for this set, so I actually fussy cut him out. It's been AGES since I've fussy cut anything and I'm totally out of practice, but I think it turned out okay.

Sending this card off to our nephew for his upcoming birthday. Hope he likes it!

Thanks for visiting! Have a great day!!!

Happy Holidays

 Today I'm sharing a card I created for Week One of the "Bringing the Cheer Challenge," a super fun month-long holiday card challenge that's happening over on Instagram. Click HERE to learn more details about how  to play along :)

As you can see above, the prompt for Week One is to create a holiday project from non-holiday products. Here's what I came up with:

I made the background panel by stamping the Sketched Stripes Background (Concord and 9th) in Grass Skirt (Catherine Pooler). Then, I turned the background stamp 180 degrees and stamped it again in Rockin' Red (Catherine Pooler). To finish, I turned the background stamp 90 degrees and stamped it in Tuxedo Black Memento (Tsukineko). The bear is from the Floral Print Silhouette Dies Set (Concord and 9th) and the sentiment is from Happy Happy Happy (Lawn Fawn).

I had so much fun making this card!!! Thanks to Karen, Kelly and Amy for hosting this challenge! So grateful for the encouragement to think outside of the box!

Hope you're all enjoying your weekend! Stay safe and healthy!
