Thankful Forest Friends Birthday Greeting from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Morning crafters.

I have another of my birthday makes that I created for my sister to share with you this morning.

This is a 6" square card. I used a piece of scrap green cardstock for the base layered with the striped print from the Go Wild Designer Series Paper Stack. 

I created my bear layer with the Lots of Labels Framelits Dies. I stamped the bear and fox from Thankful Forest Friends. Then coloured the Autumnal swirl direct on to the stamp and created a frame around my animals.

I finished my card by adding the Celebrate sentiment from the Expressions Natural Elements. I also added Into the Woods Elements details at the top of my card.

Reason for the Season meets Thankful Forest Friends from Stampin' Up! UK Demonstrator Sarah Poulton

Happy Friday crafters.

What will your weekend have in store? I am hoping to put my feet up with a cuppa and get some stitching done. I have a few Christmas cards to finish stitching as well as a couple of practice embroidery kits I got at the Kirsty Alsop show a couple of weeks back. Fingers crossed I get a few minutes to have a go.

Today I have a Thank You card I made by combining Thankful Forest Friends and Reason for the Season stamp sets.

I created the background by layering the outline and leaf/petal stamps in a random pattern over my Whisper White layer. I used a 21cm x 14.9cm card base (scored at 10.5cm). I then created a WW layer 10cm x 14.4cm.

For my sentiment layer I cut the Cherry Cobbler layer at 7cm x 4cm. The Whisper White layer which I punched in the corners with the new Trio Corner Punch was 6.5cm x 3.5cm.

I wanted a simple Thank You sentiment to accompany a Hostess Gift so I used my Stampin' Write markers for some creative colouring. I changed the Thankful Forest Friends 'Thankful for You' stamp in to Thank You simply by selectively colouring my stamp. I used the same direct stamp colouring for the multicoloured finished image (leaves and flourish).

I finished with Regals Candy Dots and mounted my sentiment layer on to Dimensionals.
