PANDA PARTY TIME !


I warned you I could not get enough of these cute guys !  Tonight I want to share 2 more cards I have created today .
The first card I cased from BJ . Peters . I love that when you join Stampin Up  everyone is more than happy to share their creations . BJ even has a tutorial on her blog here . I decided to use Flirty Flamingo for my card - although I love this colour I neglect to use it often . I also , being a lazy stamper decided to use my 2 1/2 inch punch instead of a 3 " circle framelit . When i put my card together I realised why I needed the larger circle but heck I told you I was lazy so I went with it and adjusted my card to suit ! I was putting away my stamps from a previous crafternoon when I saw the ground stamp from Sheltering Tree and decided it'd be perfect for my ground ! I adore this card !What do you think ?


For this next card I stamped the leaves from the Petal Palette set onto my  Lemon Lime Twist matt , ran it through the big shot with the Woodland Embossing folder , stamped and fussy cut my pandas and placed them in the trees ! The sentiment is die cut with a cute label die in the new Petals and More thinlits . Notice how I stamped the back of the envelope with those gorgeous leaves - a tip I picked up while watching endless you tube videos as I rested my sore back a couple of days ago ! I'm sorry I cannot recall which lovely demonstrator it was . If you are reading this and it was you I thank you so much !

Tonight I'd like to share with you two baby cards I have created using this set .
For the pink card I used In Colour DSP , layered my design and stamped and snipped out my panda .The cute greeting comes from the set called  A Little Wild , in the annual catalogue . The greetings were die cut using one of my favourite framelits , Stitched Framelits , I  layered this onto a Powder Pink  die cut from the layering circles framelits .



I have used the gorgeous DSP called Sweet Soiree , don't you love it ! At first I was afraid to cut it but then I remembered Kylie Bertucci's catch cry , LOVE IT ,CHOP IT ! So I did exactly that ! Can you spot another new product ? It is the Whisper White 1/4 " Organza ribbon , easy to miss on page 23 of the Occasions catalogue .
