Zoo Crew
I love the Zoo Crew 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper from the Annual Catalogue because one side of each paper is black & white and I love black & white! However, I did not to buy the co-ordinating Zany Zoo Stamp Set and Dies. I decided that I do not make enough children’s cards and this paper has so many gorgeous images so today I have four cards to share using this Designer Series paper. I cut card panels in Pumpkin Pie, Pool Party, Lemon Lolly and Lemon Lime Twist (I got the colours from the Designer Series Paper). I cut up the four bases in the same manner and added one of each colour to four pieces of Basic White card. I made the Basic White card the same size as the card panels so you don’t see any white but it lets me align the pieces correctly. I used four different embossing folders – two from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders, Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder and the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder.

I attached each of the embossed panels to scored and folded Basic Black card. I cut Basic Black and Basic White card using the Deckled Circle Dies. I cut four of the cute animals from the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper and attached one to each Basic White circle. Each one is attached to a Basic Black circle and then the card front using dimensionals. I stamped the greeting from the Charming Sentiments stamp set onto Basic White card four times using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the co-ordinating Sentiment Silhouette Die to cut out the greetings before attached them to each card front using dimensionals where necessary. To decorate the inside of each card, I stamped the greeting from the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp set onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I embossed a piece of each of the four colours using the embossing folders and attached each one to the bottom of a stamped panel.

I love how cute these cards are and will have to come up with some more ideas to use these cut little animals.
Bye for now,
Kris
