Creating Another Classic Guy Card Using Stampin'Up! Wildlife Wonder Stamp Set
August 24, 2023
Today we're Creating Another Classic Guy Card Using Stampin'Up! Wildlife Wonder Stamp Set. Tuesday we used the wolf stamp from this set...if you missed it check it out here Click here to see Tuesday's card.
Here's today's card...
And a bit closer look...
The primary color in today's card is Blueberry Bushel...as I mentioned Tuesday August is my son's birthday month and blue is his favorite color...thus we're using a dark blue-- but one with a lot of life in it.
This stamp has so much detail and depth built into the stamp itself we don't need to do any further coloring or enhancement...it's perfect as stamped in Blueberry Bushel. One of the useful things about using a single color for a card is that you don't need to worry about coordinating with just the right complementary color!
After cutting the focal point circle in the top layer we ran the layer through the 'crosshatch' folder (one of the 3 folderes in the Basic 3D embossing folder set that is an Online Exclusive). This folder is nearly universally useful...it's so good for many cards and works perfectly with this design.
To top it off we used the Blueberry Tinsel Gems (3 pk) that add that little touch of class pushing it to the next level of design.
I'll give you step by step directions for today's card below followed by the supply list.
