For my sample card today I used Doodle Pantry's Quirky Skunk digital stamp set, I think she's really cute! I made my card in a rather unusual way for me this time and thought I'd go through some of the process with you, just for fun.
I first printed my two sheets of digital papers that come in this set, then went to my dies for a shaped card. I cut out the Stampin' Up! Taken With Teal panel using the largest Cheery Lynn Designs French Flair scalloped die then cut out the striped Doodle Pantry digital paper with the French Flair regular die so I could layer them. I wanted a strip of my Doodle Pantry polka dotted digital paper on there too so I cut a strip to fit. I have a photo of how I did that below.
I taped my strip of paper face down on the cutting blades of my regular French Flair die to keep it in place.
There's the other side up for you before I ran it through the Grand Calibur.
I next decided how big of a circle my card would accommodate and used two of my Spellbinders circles to cut it out. Then I could work on figuring out how large or small I wanted to print my Quirky Skunk. In keeping with the scalloped theme I picked out my Spellbinders Eyelet Squares to see if one might fit inside my circle and it did and also a regular Spellbinders Square, it started coming together for me.
This photo is of my card in the process of being worked on, nothing is fastened down just laid out but coming to life.
I thought brads in the corner holes of the Eyelet Square die would be fun and I was pretty sure I could match the colors. I then added black organdy ribbon and tied a bow using a couple of my Copic markers for a "bow easy" and for a finishing touch I used part of a Fanciful Flourish die made by Cheery Lynn Designs.
Be sure to make your next stop Doodle Pantry so you can see all the fun new digital stamp sets Laurie has for you and all the wonderful sample cards our design team has made!
