It's Irrelephant!

Hello Crafty Friends!  

 Today I am over at the Craftin Desert Diva's Blog sharing a cute birthday card I made using It's All About Zoo, Bring on the Cake and Stitched in Circle Dies.

I just love this cute lil elephant!  I colored him with Copic Markers and popped him up on top of the white stitched circle, which has the sentiment stamped directly on it.  I stamped the numbers from Bring on the Cake and layered them onto a circle, except the first number that is coming out of his snout, which is a teardrop shape.  I cut all of this with my Brother Scan n Cut.  I cut the large black scallop circle and white stitched circle using Stitched in Circle Dies.  The pattern paper is from the Doodle Bug Design's Take Note.  I also used the Gelly Roll White Gel Pen for the highlights in his eyes.

This concludes my post for the day.  Thank you for stopping by!

Hello Crafty Friends!  I am over at Craftin' Desert Diva's blog today sharing a birthday card for Throwback Thursday, where every Thursday we showcase and older stamp set!  I am showcasing It's All About Zoo stamp set and several dies, Mix It Up dies, Stitched in Circles dies, Fancy Frame dies, Outdoor Landscape dies, Stitched Scallop dies and 2 sequin mixes, Couture sequins and Trick or Treat sequins.

This stamp set has the cutest lil critters in it!  I just love this lil monkey!  I colored him with Copic markers and cut him out with the Brother Scan n Cut 2 but there are matching SVG's to go with this stamp set.  To make the scene I used my Tim Holtz's distress inks to color my white cs then die cut out the grass, tree and stitched circle dies using all the above dies.  I dry embossed the tree trunk with a Paper Studio embossing folder with my Cuttlebug.  I embossed the sentiment in Tinsel Gold embossing powder.  Added a few sequins and gold ribbon and it was done!

Thanks for stoppin' by!

CDD Two for Tuesday-It's All About Zoo

Hey Crafty Friends!  Today is Two for Tuesday over at the CDD blog and DT sister Theresa, from Theresa's Crafty Creations, and I are using the lil elephant from It's all about Zoo stamp set.  I did a lot of masking on this card with the balloons.  I stamped all images in Versafine onyx black ink on watercolor paper then colored the images and background with Zig Clean Clear Colors Markers.  I also used the Outdoor Landscaping Dies for the hill cut in watercolor paper and colored with Zigs.  I love how bright this card turned out!
