I got a monkey on my back - Zoo Babies

 

I busted out the monkey and elephant from my Zoo Babies stamp set, which I haven't used for some time, for my 20-card class last weekend. That's what happens when I rearrange my stamp area - I "discover" stamps I've neglected for awhile.

 

I used Soft Suede and Wisteria Wonder ink pads and card stocks, along with a banner cut from Elegant Eggplant, and a retired designer brad (another discovery!). The birthday sentiment is from the Petite Pairs stamp set.

 

I've got nine more designs to show you in the coming days. Tomorrow is Tuesday, which means Weekly Deals, so come back to see those! I have an order going in tomorrow, so if there's anything you'd like, let me know and shipping will only be 10% instead of the minimum $6.95 (local orders only, and you pick up at my house).

Zoo Babies birthday card

 

My customers made two birthday cards for kids using the Zoo Babies stamp set and the Apothecary Accent framelit that fits the sentiment. They could add whichever color of candy dots they wanted. I love that these just stick on! No holes to punch.

Zoo Babies with Crushed Curry

 

How cute is this giraffe? It's one of the Zoo Babies in a new stamp set you may purchase in the big catalog.

 

 

I can honestly say I'm not a fan of Crushed Curry. It's a hard color for me to use. So I grabbed my Color Coach and found that Coastal Cabana and Pumpkin Pie complement Crushed Curry. I like those two colors! So here we go. I love the Scallop Border punched strip of Coastal Cabana with the 1/8" Pumpkin Pie taffeta and the little punched tag with "hi" from Fabulous Phrases.

 

 

I started planning my card with last week's sketch challenge from Try Stampin' On Tuesday. That's why I added a "tree" in Baked Brown Sugar ink from Take Care. It's the second design today I used for my 10-card class. What do you think?
