Wild About You is another stamp set that is retiring this month and one that I think is so much fun. It works for cards, great for kids stuff and great for scrapbook pages too. Today is the last day for the Late Night Stamper’s challenge to use one retiring stamp set and create three different cards with it. So I just finished doing that with the Wild About You stamp set. We will make atleast one of these card at my Last Chance Stamp-a-Stack class on Friday.
The first card was an idea from Wendy that we made atleast 2 years ago and used the same 3-d layering technique that I did on the watercoloring cards I’ve shown lately. The lion gets stamped three times and you cut out his mane and his face seperately and layer with dimensionals.
The second card is a design from Stampin’ Up! and uses the In Colors – Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss, Tangerine Tango and Pacific Point. The heart is punched with the Heart to Heart punch. The corduroy button in Pacific Point adds a little pop. The Tangerine Tango edge is done with the scallop border punch. Punch the edge once then slide it over and punch again and it gives it a jagged look like the teeth of the alligator – also a good way to cover up when you mess up aligning the scallop punch – you meant to do that!
The third card was my design – I have collected elephants since I was a little girl and love this little elephant. 
Not sure why but I decided to do a pink and brown card and make it a new baby card. I don’t have any baby girls but the pink and brown seem to be popular for decorating these days when it comes to baby girls. I wanted the card to be a little frilly since it was a girl card so I added the eyelet border punch and the organdy ribbon. I also ran the littl close to cocoa piece through the big shot to give it some swirly texture. The Pink Pirouette DSP and the white layer of card stock are sponged on the edges with the Pink Pirouette ink. The elephant was edged with the Regal Rose marker before I stamped it but it is hard to see in the picture.
I have a new Class Kit to Go ready and will send that information out to my email list later today and post on my blog tomorrow. I hope you are having a good weekend.
Hey did you notice that I am a PRINCESS now? See the crown at the top of my side bar…
