Take a peek at this FUN, party animal, exclusive Stamp set only available during February 2016!!!J
Are these guys ADORABLE or what? What a cute stamp set, and I LOVE the word phrases that are included in this set!! J
I like the colors in the Zoe paper collection, and decided this was the paper collection I would use to create my party animal card.
Take a look...
I used the ink colors of Sorbet, Glacier, Whisper & Sweet Leaf.
Did you notice the yellow behind the rabbit? I used our FUN Watercolor Paints to highlight the background of each rabbit.J

This stamp set DOES coordinate with our Artistry Cricut collection.
The Happy Birthday frame was cut at 1 1/4" but then the mat, I changed the measurements from inches to tenths. Yes, I change my measurements to tenths quite often!! You can find this option under the "Settings" button of your Cricut Explore. When you change it from inches to tenths - your pieces cut smaller than 1/4" increments. I cut the sorbet cardstock mat at 1.4".
Here is the difference from a 1.4" mat vs. the 1 1/2" mat....amazing how that little setting changes it so much.
I hope you are enjoying this blog hop & getting LOTS of ideas for when you have your OWN February Stamp of the Month (SOTM) stamp set in hand!
Happy Crafting to EACH of you! J

Adorable card! Love the polka dot texture on the base - really adds a lot of dimension!
ReplyDeleteSO SO CUTE!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute!
ReplyDeleteThose colours are so dreamy and I love the repeated bunny stamping!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card, Krista! Love the watercolored background for those bunnies :)
ReplyDeletevery cute! I looked on my explore for the settings to change to tenths. I could not locate that type of setting! Is that no longer on the machine settings? or where is it hidden?!
ReplyDeleteI was using the Expression for these cuts shown above. You press the "Settings" key on the left side of the Cricut Expression machine (over next to the mini screen). Next press the "OK" button...this will move you through the setting options. When you come to measurements section, then use your + and - signs to move the setting from inches, to tenths.
DeleteI hope that helps you figure it out! :)
Nice card. Great splash of watercoloring, and great tip on matting!!
ReplyDeleteCute card! The watercolor behind the balloon animals really makes them pop.
