Week 3 of Sunny Challenges

Can you believe it, this is our third challenge at Sunny Challenges and Creations.   We are very excited by the support that you are giving to our new site.  It is quite fascinating to see how differently each creation is.   This week the sketch is supplied by Vicky….

…and the stampset is Fox and Friends.  I have to admit this one had me stumped for a while.

I decided to use Pacific Point for my base card and added a piece of Very Vanilla card which I embossed using the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder.  I stamped the whale from the Fox and Friends stampset using Pacific Point ink onto Very Vanilla card and added a little sponging around the whale to look like the ocean.  I embossed the very bottom section of the image panel using using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  I wrapped a strip of Pacific Point card with Very Vanilla 3/8″ Taffeta Ribbon and then attached it to the card front over the image panel, concealing the top edge of the Square Lattice embossing.  Lastly I stamped “hello” from the Pennant Parade stampset onto Very Vanilla card using Pacific Point ink and punched it out using the Word Window Punch.  I punched Pacific Point card using the Modern Label punch to create a mat and attached the greeting to the card front using dimensionals.

I must admit to being slightly in love with the Stampin’ Up! embossing folders.  I just love how easy it is to get extra dimension onto my creations.

Don’t you think that whale is the cutest !  I will try and post another sample later in the week using another image from this fantastic stampset.

Now don’t forget to pop on over the Sunny Challenges and Creations to see  Gwen and Vicky’s fabulous samples for more inspiration, then add your gorgeous creation to Mr. Linky.

Bye for now, Kris.
