Hopping by to Just Say Hi

I've been waiting to share today's card with you for a long time! In April, my team leader did a fun creative challenge with our team. Those who participated were split into teams, and each week she gave us different criteria for creating cards. We got points for each of the items we included, and sometimes there were extra challenges like this one - a slimline card. This was probably my favorite card that I created during the entire challenge. Take a look!

 

I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut out some "windows" for my kangaroos. I was inspired by Erica Cerwin, who did a peekaboo card like this, although hers was not a slimline card. 

 

Here is a full list of my supplies:

Stamps: Kangaroo & Company

Ink: Coastal Cabana, Memento Black, Stampin' Blends Markers: Cinnamon Cider, Petal Pink

Paper: Coastal Cabana, Basic White, Flirty Flamingo, Pattern Party Designer Series Paper

Embellishments: Snail Mail Twine Combo Pack

Tools: Versamark, White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Tasteful Labels Dies, Kangaroo Dies, Layering Circles Dies, Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal+, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

Happy Stamping!

#GDP277: Love You Lots

I am so honored to be a guest designer for the Global Design Project this week! This week, it's a color challenge:

 

These colors instantly made me think of the new Kangaroo & Company Bundle, so that's what I used!

 

The Heartfelt stamp set from last year provided the sentiment, and the heart is from the Stitched Be Mine Dies. I love how all of these different Valentine's products coordinate so beautifully! 

 

For the kangaroos, I stamped on Sahara Sand cardstock, and then added a little bit of shading with my Light Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends Marker. I also added a few details with Light Rococo Rose. And did you know the mama kangaroo die cuts her pocket so that you can stick the baby right in?! How fun! 

 

The finishing touch is a few of the white Resin Hearts Embellishments colored with Dark Rococo Rose. I hope you enjoyed my card - thank you for stopping by!

 

Here is a full list of the supplies I used:
