Counting Sheep
Today’s card was again created using the Counting Sheep stamp set and Sheep Dies. Both the stamp set and the dies are available FREE with a qualifying order during Sale-A-Bration. For my card today, I cut Basic White card using the largest rectangle from the Scalloped Contour Dies. I masked across the panel and added Soft Sea Foam ink to the bottom half using a Blending Brush. I changed the orientation of the mask and used a Blending Brush to add Pool Party ink to the other half of the die cut. I also cut some scrap card using the Basic Border Dies and used it as a mask to add a bit more depth to the colour of the sky.
I stamped the greeting from the Counting Sheep stamp set onto the upper left hand corner of the die cut using Memento Tuxedo Black ink before attaching the panel to scored and folded Thick Basic White card. I cut Early Espresso card twice using the fence die from the Sheep Dies and attached them across the coloured panel. I stamped the two sheep images from the Counting Sheep stamp set onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I coloured the images using the Light Smoky Slate and Light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends. I cut out the images using the co-ordinating Sheep Dies and attached them to the card front using dimensionals. I stamped the grass image from the Counting Sheep stamp set around the sheep.
I stamped the birthday hat image from the Counting Sheep stamp set twice onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I coloured the hats using the Dark Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blend before cutting them out using the co-ordinating Sheep Die. The hats are attached to the card front using a mini dimensional. I cut the Basic White card using the cloud die from the Sheep Dies and attached them to the card front. I cut Flirty Flamingo, So Saffron and Balmy Blue card using the balloon die from the Sheep Dies and attached them to the card front, tucking them under the sheep’s arm. To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the sheep image from the Counting Sheep stamp set onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I coloured the image using the Light Smoky Slate and Light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends. I cut out the image using the co-ordinating Sheep Die and attached it to the inside of the card. I stamped the greeting from the Counting Sheep stamp set to the right of the sheep using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
