Hello and welcome to my blog
I know, two posts in one day!! I haven’t gone made but I nearly missed the deadline again for this weeks Global Design Project which is a CASE the Designer challenge. The card being CASEd is by Emma Goddard, a member of the GDP team and otherwise known as the Coastal Crafter – check out her blog here.
For my card, I decided not to use any of my flower stamp sets and opted instead to use the Pampered Pets Bundle. It’s the first time I’ve had a chance to play with it and I just love the grins on these two furbabies faces.
The faux watercolour background is so easy to create with Stampin’ Write Markers, an acrylic block and water. I used Coastal Cabana and Pear Pizzazz but you can use whatever colours you have to hand. It doesn’t show but I also sprayed the panel of whisper white with some of my homemade shimmer spray – I do love a bit of sparkle!
The cute dog and cat were stamped in memento black in on a scrap of whisper white and coloured with Stampin’ Blends before being die cut. The dog is adhered using multipurpose glue with some foliage from two Sunflowers dies tucked behind and the cat is added with dimensionals. The sentiment is from Forever Fern and I used another stamp from that set to create the speckled tone on tone background on the Smokey Slate base. The Coastal Cabana ribbon is from the Playing with Patterns Trim Combo pack and basic rhinestones add the finishing touch.
Inside has a few more speckles in opposite corners and the sentiment is from the Pampered Pets stamp set.
