Dinosaurs

Here's another of the Stamp-a-stack cards. I really enjoyed making this one, mainly because when I saw it I thought I wouldn't like making it. It looks so arty, with the sponged sky and grass, and I thought mine would just look a bit rubbish! But I hope you'll agree, mine came out looking pretty good in the end. It's great trying new techniques that I'd have shied away from initially.
The stamp set Dinoroar was used on this card, it's a perfect set for children's cards.  The sky and the grass were really easy to do, using the sponge daubers, and the key way definitely doing a little at a time and building it up until it looked right. It's really effective, and does look harder than it was.

Celebrate


Here's the second card from the Stamp-a-stack class. It's another bunting card, there's quite a few of them appearing on my blog! The colour combo is Tempting Turquoise and Real Red. The flags were punched from the Petite Pennants Builder punch, and the Celebrate stamp is one of the Sale-a-bration sets Outlined Occasions. The mini brads were used between the flags, and the Real Red Glimmer Brads were used on the sentiment, which was punched with the Large Oval and the Scallop Oval Punches.
