I'm going to miss this stamp when June 2nd arrives, so I'm using it wherever I can!  This will probably be one of the stamps that will stay in my collection, at least for a little while.  I'm not ready to part with it!




Recipe:

Card Base: Basic Black - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score at 4 1/4"
Whisper White 5 1/4" x 4"
DSP - Adventure Bound Stack 5 1/8" x 3 7/8"

Stamp From the Herd onto Whisper White or Watercolor Paper and color the critters you want to use.  Fussy cut them with your Paper Snips - leaving extra paper at the bottom so you can attach them to the inside of the wood grain.

Punch holes into the wood grain DSP with the 1 3/8" Circle Punch.  Attach Stampin' Dimensionals on the back of the DSP - remembering to include Dimensionals around the circles you punched as well, so they stand up and don't sag.

Stamp sentiment of your choice onto Whisper White and then use Word Bubbles Framelits to cut out the sentiment.  Be sure you have the "pointy thing" facing towards one of the circle punches.



On this card, I tried to color the eyes a darker blue and they came out really scary!  Since I'd already cut them out, I had to find a solution.  I remembered I had googly eyes.  To the rescue!  I also had bigger borders on this one downsizing 1/4" each time - White 5 1/4" x 4"; DSP 5" x 3 3/4"





Remember the inside and stamp the whole herd at the bottom of your inside card stock (5 1/4" x 4")


Thank you for looking in today.  Have a great week!!
