#stampinup #saleabration2018 #faithfulinkspirations Today’s card is the last of the cards we made with the “Party Pandas” stamp set at our Stampin’ Up group’s new catalog gathering–but it’s probably not the last card I’ll make with this set because it’s adorable! Remember, you can earn this set for free during Sale-a-Bration with a qualifying order. Contact me today for all the details!
We stamped the panda in Basic Black Archival Ink onto a Whisper White oval that had been cut with one of the Layering Ovals Framelits. We stamped just the balloon from the same stamp onto a Whisper White scrap and colored it with a Dark Bermuda Bay Stampin’ Blend. I love how these alcohol markers give such a smooth, blended finish. Then, we fussy cut the balloon and adhered it to the oval with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
Next, we inked the Diagonal Stripe Background stamp with Lemon Lime Twist Ink and stamped it onto the front of a Lemon Lime Twist Card Stock card base. We adhered a 4″ by 2″ strip of the Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper (also a FREE SAB item) and then a 4″ ‘by 2″ strip of the same DSP–the stars and stripes!
We adhered the panda-oval to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. We stamped the “happy birthday” sentiment in Basic Black Archival Ink onto a Whisper White scrap and punched it out with the Classic Label Punch. We punched another label in Bermuda Bay and adhered these to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. For a finishing touch, we tied a bow in a length of Whisper White Baker’s Twine and adhered it to the base of the balloon with a Glue Dot.
These panda cards are super, super cute! I hope you’ll peruse the Occasions catalog and put together a $50 (or $100) order so that you can earn either the “Party Pandas” set or the Bubbles & Fizz DSP–or both. You know you’ve gotta have ’em!
