Oh Snap - You Croc My World

 Don't you just love this adorable crocodile? I paired him with the Oh so Ombre Designer Series Paper you can earn for FREE during Sale a-bration (January 5 - February 28, 2021) with a qualifying order of $50.00. I like the Bermuda Bay pattern to emulate him being in a lake. When I googled crocodile images I saw that they can also be gray which looked a lot better with Bermuda Bay Paper. All supplies used are Stampin' Up! and available at my online store. 

 Directions:

1. Cut a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock in half at 5 1/2". Score at 4 1/4"

2. Cut a card front out of the Bermuda Bay Designer series paper 4" x 5 1/4" and glue to card.

3. Using Black Momento ink stamp the crocodile on the Designer Series paper and on a scrap of Thick 

White cardstock. The reason you stamp on the designer paper is to get his eyebrows. Color the croc with the Light Gray Granite Stampin' Blends and then around edges and scales with the Dark Gray Granite. Fussy cut out using your paper snips. Using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals add crocodile to card front making sure when placing  dimensionals to leave opening for heart. 

4. Die cut a heart out of Thick White cardstock using the Stitched Be Mine dies. Use the new Blending Brush to add Rich Razzleberry ink to your heart. Stamp sentiment on heart using Momento Black ink. 

Add a dot of Tombo Multi Liquid glue to bottom on heart and place under the bottom jaw of the croc.

Add a dot of glue to the top jaw to hold heart in place.

Kangaroo & Company -Valentines Day card

I love this kangaroo stamp set with all the fun things to put in her pouch. It wasn't until I stamped, colored and die cut it that I realized that the slit in her pouch cut with the die cut. Goodbye Exacto knife! It also had to look at the catalog samples to figure out what the one die was. When I saw it was to put things into the pouch I was in awe. Whoever designed the stamp and die did an amazing jog in my opinion. When I saw a card by Cindy Brumbaugh using the Stitched hearts dies with the Kangaroo I had to make this card. I changed the color of cardstock, the embossing folder used and put the hearts in the pouch. I also put the sentiment on the pull tab instead of on the front of the card. All supplies used in this card are available in my online store here. Supplies used are listed below.

Forever and Always

I love the Forever and Always stamp set on page 13 of the January - June mini catalog. I have paired it with the coordinating Always dies and True Love Designer series paper. I really like the pop of pink on the black and white card. I cased this card from a card done by Brian King you can see here. I used Flirty Flamingo instead of Blushing Bride and put my stamped image at the top since I used the Forever & stamp instead of the Together stamp Brian used. I used the die cut love and  shadow on the inside to coordinate with the Always on the outside. I also stamped the smaller flower up in the corner and a sentiment under the love in black.
