Hi and Welcome to Day 3 of my GIU week.
I love the variety of stamps that Unity has, there is something for everyone's stamping fancy.
Today I'll be sharing a card that makes me smile and I hope itmakes you smile as well.
I have a love for squirrels and enjoy leaving peanuts out for them to eat. They are always so comical to watch. So when I saw the stamp set: Stay Squirrelly I just knew it had to pop into my shopping cart.
Here is the card that I created using it:
This was a easy card to put together. I started with a base of Early Espresso (SU) cs. Then a piece of designer paper and pieces of Old Olive and Balmy Blue.
I used a leaf embossing folder (Paper Studio) and embossed the leaves on just a portion of it. Then I layered the designer paper and the strip of old olive down the center.
The squirrel was stamped with Memento Tuxedo black on White card stock and cut with a Grunge Tag. I colored the image with Pencils blended with Gamsol and blending stumps. I distressed the edges with Balmy Blue ink.
I added brown embroidery thread after punch a hole in the tag and mounted it on the card with foam tape.
The small acorn is from the current September KOM . I added some Wink of Stella for a little shimmer on the acorn. The sentiment was cut with a fishtail die. Green enamel dots were added.
I think this will make a fun card to give to someone when you forget their birthday.
Be sure to leave your name in the comment section for a chance at the $20 Gift Voucher for some Unity goodies.
See you again tomorrow for another fun card creation. Thanks for stopping by.
