I'm back with another animal card to inspire you! And today I'm going retro with one of my favorite ever animal stamp sets:
Thankful Forest Friends! The bear has made LOTS of appearances over the years on both cards and scrapbook pages, and the fox has been inked up a lot too. (For some reason I don't use the bunny as much.) I wasn't sure what to do for a sentiment on the card, but then I saw the May Paper Pumpkin kit stamps and ding ding ding! LOVE ose big bold word stamps! The outline on "hey" started out as an accident--I recently re-inked my Daffodil Delight ink pad so it's ridiculously juicy right now, and when I stamped the "hey" the edges were a little blotchy because I had puddles of ink on the stamp. So I got my blender pen and started smoothing out the edges and I got an outline effect. Happy little accidents, y'all!
I used the Into the Woods DSP on a scrapbook layout last week, and it was made to coordinate with Thankful Forest Friends, so I pulled my colors from that DSP though the pattern I chose only has Mossy Meadow in it. The Rich Razzleberry panel is from another DSP pack, International Bazaar; I used it instead of another piece of Into the Woods paper because I had a scrap the right size and I didn't want to cut into a new sheet of paper.
I'm entering this at Retro Rubber:
Thankful Forest Friends is five years old, so nice and retro for their challenge :)
Hope you enjoyed this week's Creature Feature! I had lots of fun with it, and of course I have lots and lots of animal stamps I didn't use this week so...maybe I'll do it again! Cheers, y'all!
