Stamps Well With Others: Meerkat Silhouette

I'm not sure I can pick a favorite from our weSTAMP event on Saturday, but I can say that I really love how this one turned out. Every card turns out different because of sponging, everyone sponges differently, so they never look like any other. Thank you to Lorri for giving us these great projects!

This is a FREE Sale-a-bration Stamp Set! Don't miss out - free with any $50.00 purchase!

Recipe:
Basic Black - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Gorgeous Grape - 3 3/8" x 3 3/8"
Basic Black - 3 3/8" x 3 3/8"
Whisper White - 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" (for a bigger border - make it 3" x 3")
Whisper White - 4" x 5 1/4" - inside panel

Spritz the front of the card with Frost White Shimmer Paint mixed with rubbing alcohol. Set aside to dry.

Punch a 1 1/2" circle from a Post-it Note (be sure to punch where there is sticky on the back of the circle). Place it on the Whisper White square as shown. (we actually used a 1 1/4" punch, but that is retired, so you could use the 1 1/2")

Using a wedge of your Stampin' Sponge, ink up around the Post-it Note with Gorgeous Grape and Blueberry Bushel. Add a bit of Memento Black around the outer edge.

Before removing the circle, spritz this piece like the front of the card.

Remove the Post-it Note and stamp the Meerkats and the Bumble Bee over the sponged cardstock. Color in the Bee and the Meerkats in using a Black Stampin' Write Marker. Stamp "from all of us" in the upper corner.

Attach the Gorgeous Grape to the front of the card at an angle with your adhesive of choice. Attach the sponged piece to the Basic Black and then pop the two pieces together over the Grape with Dimensionals.

Stamp inside greeting with Gorgeous Grape and the Bee with Memento Black.
