Seas the Day with a Fun Walrus Card

 

Hi crafty friends!

Today I’m excited to share a playful card I created for the This or That Instagram Hop. Our Fire or Fireworks theme this week inspired me to bring out this adorable walrus and have some fun with bright colors and festive details.

Supplies Used:

• Walrus Die – Spellbinders Small Die of the Month (last month’s kit)

• Sentiment – Spellbinders Clear Stamp & Die of the Month

• Background Stenciling – Kristina Werner’s Celebrate Stencil Pack

I started by die cutting and assembling the walrus in his cozy red coat and knit cap—he just makes me smile! For the background, I wanted a celebratory feel but realized I didn’t have a fireworks stencil on hand. Instead of waiting for the “perfect” supply, I decided to improvise. Kristina Werner’s Celebrate stencil pack was the perfect solution for adding bright yellow stars and colorful dots that mimic fireworks.

The sentiment, “Seas the Day & Make it Amazing,” seemed like the perfect finishing touch to cheer someone on.

Happy stamping,
