Stampin’ Up! Playful Pets
Monday is here. Are you ready for another great week? Have you been making one Christmas card a day to get ahead of the rush. I think it is only 316 days until Christmas so you have 300 days. If you make two-three a week, you will be finished early. Use a simple stamp set that you know will be returning next Christmas season.
My design inspiration for today is the TGIF Sketch Challenge for the week.
Since all my little creatures are fussy cut from DSP I believe it would qualify for Crafty Hazelnuts Pattern Paper Challenge.
Since my card is lots of animals, I believe I am eligible for the Crafty Animals: Challenge #47.
And 2 Crafty Critter Crazies Challenge.
My cute critters are from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper as is the background panel with all the writing. My card is a CASE of Krista Cleary-Yagci’s card. You can see her card here.
The card base for my critters is Real Red card stock. The black and white stripe mat you see is from the True Love DSP. The red stripe is from the Playful Pets DSP.
All the little critters are fussy cut from the Playful Pets DSP as are the hearts that surround them. The Love is cropped from Real Red card stock using a dies from the Well Written Dies.
The sentiment panel has a strip of the Playful Pals DSP applied at the bottom of the Basic White card stock panel. One of the little critters wants to play with us so she is hiding and only showing her tail.
The medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the Playful Pets DSP adhered to the envelope flap. Multipurpose glue and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals are the two adhesives used for adhering the critters to their places on the card front.

This was an easy card again to make, just a few snips and cuts and a bit of fussy cutting and it was finished. The card base is Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock with a mat for the art pieces that has been embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder.
The art pieces have a Basic Black mat and a Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake art piece that has been sprinkled with Tuxedo Memento Black ink using the sprinkle stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Waterfront Stamp Set.
The feathers are fussy cut from a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Bird Ballad DSP. The feathers make me think of Fall leaves that have changed colors, therefore, I am also playing at 
I cropped the word “thanks” 4 times using the die from the Stampin’ Up! Well Written Dies, three from Basic Black card stock and one from Stampin’ Up! Cajun Craze card stock.
After cutting the circle, I placed it aside for the moment and placed the negative portion left, over my panel of Whisper White card stock. Using a Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Sponge and Stampin’ Up! So Saffron ink I sponged inside the circle creating a large moon. Finishing with the moon, I pulled the moon mask from the card front and using the circle I had cut out, I placed the circle over the sponged moon.
Using the branch die from the Stampin’ Up! Silhouette Scenes Bundle, I cropped the tree, to make the tree trunk longer, I did not place my cutting plate over the entire tree branch die, so it would only cut a portion of the tree branch. After cutting the branch with the die, I drew a tree trunk on the Basic Black card stock and fussy cut it—thus extending the tree trunk.
I placed the tree branch on the art panel over the moon so I would know where to stamp my little girl, using the little girl stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Silhouette Scenes Bundle I stamped the image at the bottom of the panel as if she was standing on the ground. Now that the art panel is finished it can be adhered to the Stampin’ Up! Basic Black card stock base using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Now that the image is stamped, I can adhere the tree branch using Multipurpose Glue. I stamped the greeting in the lower corner of the art panel again using Tuxedo Memento Black ink.
Have you ever seen a blue poppy? I haven’t. I understand they are a rare breed, they are not the everyday flower that you can pick up in a bouquet at the grocery store. I believe the flowers on the card I am sharing today are blue poppies. My card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper and Noble Peacock Specialty Designer Series Paper.
Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock is the base with several layers of mats all from the Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ up! Nobel Peacock Specialty Designers Series Paper.
