Sweet Friends ft. Pajama Crafter Stamps

 

Hello everyone!  Summer is in full swing!  Hope you are having fun

and enjoying some nice warm summer weather!  Today I'm sharing this cute 

card using products from

Pajama Crafter Stamps

High Five Stamp/Die Bundle

Birds of a Feather Stamp Set

Where Hope Blooms Stamp Set

Spring Plaids Paper Pad

This little cat from the High Five Set is so sweet!  And she's playing with

her little bird friends!  Let me show you how I made my card.  I chose my

background paper first from the Spring Plaids paper pad and die cut a panel 

using a stitched scallop rectangle die from my stash and then die cut an oval 

out of white card stock using a stitched nesting oval die.  I stamped out my 

cat image and the 3 little birds onto white card stock. 

I die cut my cat before I colored her.  This cat is only about 2" tall,

and the birds are about 1/2" around, so the coloring was quick.

I colored up the 3 little birds and then fussy cut them.  I stamped the

sentiment onto another smaller oval die cut out of the aqua card stock

that I cut to fit the background of the card which was 1/8" smaller.

I adhered the aqua card stock to the black white card base.  I did round

the corners first.  Then I adhered the plaid piece which was die cut with a

scalloped rectangle die and wrapped around the middle with some 

pale pink and white twine and popped it up on foam tape.  I also used the

foam tape to adhered the cat, birds and sentiment.  I finished with a few

pieces of confetti and some tiny black dots around the birds.  That

finished my card!

This is such a sweet card...the cat is my favorite!  I hope I've inspired

you to make one for yourself to give to someone!  You can find these

Friendship Isn't a Big Thing...ft. Pajama Crafter Stamps

Hello everyone!  I'm here with a very cute card and using spring

colors!  I'm using products from

Pajama Crafter Stamps

Birds of a Feather Stamp Set

Where Hope Blooms Stamp Set

Scalloped Circle Die

Scalloped Circle Nesting Dies

Coal Card Stock Panels - A2 Size

These 2 stamp sets work together well.  And the dies...the Scalloped

Circle Nesting Dies coordinate beautifully with the single Scalloped

 Circle Die.  Let me show you my process.  First, I found my background

paper.  This was a panel of splatters on white card stock using Distress

Oxide Inks.  I used a rainbow of colors, but this panel is so old I don't

know what the colors were.  I chose some card stocks that were a good

match to the colors and used the circle dies to cut graduating layers.  

I added some fairly light blue glitter card stock as the middle of the

focal circle.  I used a 1 3/4" die from my stash to die cut this with.  I

stamped out my images onto white card stock.  I wasn't sure how I was

going to cut the bird image - as one piece or separately.  But I cut

this little panel in half and concentrated on the birds.

I painted the little birds with Distress Ink.  Even though I wasn't

using watercolor paper, the card stock was fine with such little images.

I layered my background using the same card stocks as the focal

circle with the exception of the black.  I used a fancy scalloped edged

die for the splattered panel to make it stand out.  I also used some

shimmer spray on the splattered panel the layers for the die cut circles.

I backed my sentiment with the same blue glitter card stock and also

die cut a border of hearts with a die from my stash.  I cut out each of the

birds, and left a white white margin around them.  I popped up the

sentiment on some low loft foam squares.  I popped up the birds with

a much higher loft foam tape so they really stand out.  I scatted a few

Purple Heart sequins and that finished my card!
