RainyDay Stamper

See what happens

when you don't put away the stuff you were working on yesterday-  you make another card with the same stuff!  The colors are the same as yesterday's card

but I did change more than just the image. First for the scalloped rectangle I used the Scallop Square Bigz Clear die (115950) and used a small piece of Wild Wasabi, cutting only three sides of the paper.  I then moved the cutting so that the die would then cut the remaining fourth side and one of the bottom sides to make it shorter.  It sounds complicated but it is so easy to do with this die as the center is clear.  The background DSP is Certainly Celery-I do have alot of now retired paper so you will be seeing it for awhile.  The Wild Wasabi circles are punched with the 1/2" small circle punch (119869) and then Certainly Celery circle are punched with the circle punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch pack (118309).  I will tell you that these little punches really work good, not like some I have tried in the past from other companies.  I used So Saffron brads to add some contrast and to attach the two circles together.  The Welcome Baby is from Short & Sweet, one of my favorite sentiment sets, just love the writing and I punched that with the Word Window punch and layered it onto a Wild Wasabi piece that was punched using the Modern Label punch.

Don't worry, I cleaned my desk after I finished so tomorrow I will not use green!

Happy Stamping,

Happy Tuesday

Hope you all had a great Monday, I know I did.  I didn't have to work so did some housecleaning and I found my missing Mojo along with a missing cookbook so it was a good day!  I have a baby shower to go to this coming weekend, have the gift just have to make up the packaging and of course, I needed a card. 

I used three different stamp sets to make the card, using one stamp from each set. I have had Animal Stories for awhile and have never used it or even mounted it for that matter so decided it would be perfect for a baby card.  I also used a a la carte stamp from the Occasions Mini A to Z and Full of Life for the sentiment.

What do  you think? 

The card base is Wild Wasabi and then I used Certainly Celery and Whisper White.  I stamped the sentiment and the A to Z stamp with Certainly Celery and the Elephant with Wild Wasabi. The Whisper White is ran through the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka Dots impressions folder and I used the Scallop edge punch on the Certainly Celery and then my white gel pen to add the dots.  The sentiment normally looks like this

but it did not work with this card so with a bit of Scotch tape and my Stamp a ma Jig, stamped it in a thin strip that suited the card.

Happy Stamping,
