Too Wonderful Zany Zoo


Hey Stampers!
I have another card to share with you today.  This card was made with a sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday, but I am posting about a week too late to be part of the challenge.  🤣
I used the Zany Zoo bundle for today's card. 

I just couldn't pass up on this on bundle and all of the adorable images to color.  I used Stampin' Blends to color this image.  I love using the Stampin' Blends because although I am far from being an artist, I am able to get enough shadows and highlights to get results that I think look pretty good.


I used the Stylist Shapes Dies for the sentiment, cutting off one end of the banner to turn it into a flag shape.  And of course I added a few rhinestones for bling.
 

Happy Stampin'!

A Pumpkin Harvest of Blessings


Stampin' time has been short lately, but I made some time today to make a card for this week's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches.  
I used the new Pick of the Patch Bundle.  The bundle includes the stamp set and a coordinating punch that punches two pumpkins sizes, the stem and a leaf.


I stamped the pumpkins in Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Flirty Flamingo. I punched them out and attached them to the velum with Stampin' Dimensionals.  I stamped the small leaf trio in Crushed Curry on Crushed Curry Cardstock to create a simple monochromatic background piece and layered the vellum piece on that.  The sentiment was stamped in Pecan Pie and die cut with the Stylish Shapes Dies


The Pecan Pie layer was embossed with the cross-hatch design from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders.  This is a set of 3 embossing folders and is a great addition to your stash!  The embossed piece was layered on an A2 card base.
For bling I used the 2023-2025 In Color Dots.  While the dots are not the exact same color, the Wheat Wheat dots are a pretty close match to Crushed Curry.  

Happy Stampin'!
