The Gangs All Meer

Posted on by

Today I am sharing a cute, quirky card made using a new Sale-A-Bration stamp set from Stampin’ Up! called The Gangs All Meer.

To recreate the Gangs All Meer card you will need:

Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” for the inside
Whisper White – 3” by 3”
Mossy Meadow – 2⅞” by 2⅞”
Whisper White – 2¾” by 2¾”
Scrap Whisper White

I die cut three squares from the three square panels of card stock.

The cactus image was stamped across the bottom of the card front in Crumb Cake ink.

I stamped the adorable group of meerkats in Soft Suede ink onto the smallest Whisper White square and coloured them in using the Crumb Cake combo of Blends Markers. The ground was added with the light Mossy Meadow Blends Marker.

The background sky was added with So Saffron ink and a Sponge. The three squares were adhered together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive then mounted on the card front with Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink onto scrap Whisper White card and trimmed down using my Paper Trimmer. It was added to the card front with the liquid glue.

Sweet Animal Outings card featuring the Giraffes by Stampin' Up!

Animal Outings gorgeous Giraffes

Posted on by

Today I have been playing with the quirky Animal Outing stamp set. I was lucky enough to go to OnStage in April and this was an all attendee gift ……..lucky me. For those that don’t know OnStage is the fantastic twice yearly event  for Stampin’ Up! demonstrators where we get together to try out new product, new techniques and generally have a fantastic crafty time. This is the first time I have had a chance to play with this fabulous set.

Making the Card

I started by stamping the circle from the Swirly Frames stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock 3 ½” by 3 ½”. I then cut this out using the Layering Circle dies and my Big Shot. I masked off the edge of the die cut circle and stamped the sweet leaf image randomly on the inside of the circle. Using a Blender Pen I pulled in the colour from the edges of the leaves to give them a little depth.

Taking some scrap Whisper White cardstock I stamped 2 giraffes from the Animal Outings stamp set in Momento Tuxedo Black ink and die cut both images using the Animal Friends dies and my Big Shot. I coloured both images using the Light and Dark Daffodil Delight and the Light and Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends.

I added the stamped circle to a panel of Whisper White measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” and placed the giraffes onto  the circle, one with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and the other on Stampin’ Dimensionals…….. they looks so cute.

I rounded the upper left and lower right corners with the Detailed Trio Punch and added the panel to a layer of So Saffron cardstock  5⅝” by 3⅞” with identical rounded corners. I then added the panel to a Granny Apple Green card base with the same rounded corners.

I punched out a number of leaves from Granny Apple Green cardstock using the Leaf Punch and tucked them around the circle.

This is such a sweet card. I hope you like it.
