Forest Friends... OH so cute!

Recipe:
Stamps: Forest Friends, Lovely as a Tree, Oval All
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Old Olive
Paper: Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Close to Cocoa, Ski Slope DSP
Accessories: Old Olive grosgrain ribbon, Oval punch, Scallop Oval punch, sponge daubers

This set is so adorable! To create the main image, I stamped the tree image using Choc Chip on Whisper White cardstock then I used sponge daubers and ink to create the background. To create the clouds I sponged Bashful Blue around a scallop edge circle I had punched out. I stamped the deer using Choc Chip and cut it out, sticking it onto the scene using dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the new Oval All set and punched out with the new punches (these are sooo great!). The background triangles are from a new paper pack called Ski Slope. It is actually a Christmas pack but you can use so many of the papers for other occasions... it's actually my favourite of all the new paper packs in the mini catalogue.

Bunny for You...
Recipe:
Stamps: Forest Friends, Oval All, Mr & Mrs
Ink: Basic Grey, Certainly Celery, Almost Amethyst
Paper: Tea Party DSP, Certainly Celery, Almost Amethyst, So Saffron, Whisper White
Accessories: Scallop edge punch, oval punch, So Saffron striped ribbon, nestabilities
This card is a bit of a different colour feel for me. I normally like Earth Elements but this is very Soft and Subtle! The bunny was stamped with Basic Grey and highlighted with Pretty in Pink and a blender pen. The layers underneath the bunny were done using the circle from Mr & Mrs. The patterned paper is the new Tea Party DSP set from the mini catalogue. The ribbon is the new So Saffron striped ribbon. The corners of the white panel were punched using the scallop edge punch. The greeting is from the new Oval All set.
