Animal Outing – Stampin with Shirley G

Animal Outing with Part of My Story

January 25, 2019 admin

I received the Animal Outing stamp set at OnStage Atlanta in April 2018. I have used it very little but think it is time to use it more as we now have a stamp set that has the perfect greeting for this (Part of My Story) free with $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration.

The card starts with a Lovely Lipstick card base. There are two large layer panels for mats, one is Basic Black, the other is cut from a panel of the All My Love DSP. They are adhered together using Liquid Glue then adhered to the card base using the same Liquid Glue.

My inspiration comes from Tuesday Morning Sketches.

Two smaller panels are cut one from Basic Black, the other from Lovely Lipstick. The Lovely Lipstick one is embossed using the Subtle’s TIEF. They are layered together and adhered to the large heart panel using Liquid Glue. A strip of the heart paper from the All My Love DSP is cut along with a strip of Basic Black card stock to make a banner across the card.

The kangaroo is stamped in Soft Suede on a panel of Crumb Cake and cut using the kangaroo die that comes in the bundle saving 10% if that is the way you purchased it. The kangaroo was masked so the little bear in the pouch would not show. A Lovely Lipstick heart cut from the All My Love DSP is adhered using a glue dot on the hand as if the kangaroo is holding the heart. The cute little hippo is stamped in Soft Suede on Gray Granite card stock and cut using his die. This little hippo wants to be different so he has a Coastal Cabana heart balancing on his nose.The greeting is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a stitched circle and has a Basic Black mat. Several Epoxy hearts are scattered around the card front. The front is finished. Let’s try for the inside sentiment.

The part of the sentiment is from the bundle called Well Said. It has been cut using Lovely Lipstick card stock. The “I Just” is printed by me. I didn’t have a stamp that says I Just Miss You so I used the two words from the Well Said bundle. The heart flourish is from the Forever Lovely stamp set and is stamped in Lovely Lipstick ink.

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you like my card and that you have found encouragement and inspiration for your own creations.

Stampin’ Up! Spirited Snowmen

October 25, 2018 admin

Welcome!

I hope you have had a terrific Thursday, doing all the things that make your heart sing. I hope you like my snow couple. I think they are precious. To me they are on a date and looking at the stars. Did you ever go on a date when you were young and look at the stars? How romantic. Or maybe now that you are an adult you look at them often and think what beauty.

The stamp set is the Spirited Snowmen set. The snow couple was stamped on Thick Whisper White card stock and then fussy cut. I stamped three so I could adhere the other two to the art one for depth and not use Stamping Dimensionals. It was Liquid Glue all the way.

The starry sky is a panel cut from the Twinkle, Twinkle DSP and adhered to the Whisper White card base that was embossed using the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. The snow bank was cut from a scrap of the Thick Whisper White card stock. It extends almost all the way across the embossed panel. It would probably look better if I had embossed it with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder also.

The “Together We Make A Great Pair” greeting is from the Animal Outing stamp set. It is stamped using Night of Navy onto the snow bank.

The inside sentiment is panel of Whisper White adhered to a mat of Night of Navy after the Whisper White panel had been punched with a retired Stampin’ Up! heart punch. You can use any punch you like or leave it plain. I wanted the hearts, since I wrote the word “LOVE” using the Night of Navy Stampin’ Write Marker.

My design comes from Inspire, Create for today
