SKILLFUL STAMPING: "Wildly Happy" for this Stampin'Up® Set

I am always in need of a baby shower card or a card for a wee one and the Wildly Happy stamp set from Stampin'Up® is simply adorable. Do not let the animal images intimate you because you do not need to watercolor them in or do anything fancy at all. I did simple stamping and came out with beautiful cards to give. The secret..... Stampin'Up® Artisan Textures background stamp and Petal Label Dies to create a delicate frame.

Ink: Melon Mambo, Coastal Cabana, Soft Suede, Memento Black

Whisper White Cardstock

1. Cut a standard A4 card and a piece to fit the top measuring 4 1/4 by 5 1/2 all in Whisper White cardstock.

2. Using the largest die in the Petal Label die, center it on the cardstock top piece and run through your Big Shot or machine of choice. I used a piece of tulle ribbon and tied it around the edge of the card before I glued it down with Multipurpose Tombow® liquid glue from Stampin'Up®.

3. Using the largest solid texture stamp from "Artisan Textures" I loaded the stamp with ink but stamped off once on scrap paper BEFORE stamping on my card to give a softer look. Then I stamped the foxes in Memento Black ink on top. (You may want to play with the shape of the texture stamp and the alignment of the fox stamp to see what way works best for you. I did this on scrap paper before I stamped on my project.)

4. Stamp a sentiment of choice in the inside.
