Savanna Safari Cards with Lynn and Ashley

Hello there! It’s Lynn here today and I’m excited to be sharing a card I created featuring the fun Savanna Safari stamps and coordinating dies.

To create my card, I started out by stamping some of the adorable animal images from the Savanna Safari stamp set and coloring them using Copic markers then I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out. I also used the Tropical Scenes stamp set and coordinating dies and used the palm tree and vines images.

For my background I die cut a piece of the Summer Splash patterned paper using the Frilly Frames Retro Petals dies and matted that piece with some green cardstock. I used the Stitched Semi-Circle dies with white cardstock and blended on some Carved Pumpkin and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide ink along the top and stamped the bottom with the water/hill image from the Tropical Scenes set which I colored using Copic markers. 

I stamped my sentiment onto a banner and added some tropical leaves from the Radiant Plumeria stamp set and coordinating dies. After that I adhered my animal images, popping up the lion and toucan bird with foam tape.

Hello friends! It's Ashley with a clean and simple card using the adorable critters from Savanna Safari! 

I knew when I first saw the set that I wanted to make a sunset scene. I blended Distress Oxides in Worn Lipstick and Dried Marigold for the sky and added Scattered Straw for the grass. I stamped a few trees from Savanna Safari in Memento Tuxedo Black on top, then added grassy details with Copics. I die cut the overlapping circles from Snowflake Circle Frame from metallic gold cardstock, then cut down my ink blended background to fit inside. I added the circle piece to a white card base.

I stamped the animals from Savanna Safari in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics before cutting them out with the matching dies. I used foam tape to add them to my card. I then stamped the sentiment from Savanna Safari in Memento Tuxedo Black on the white card base to finish.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Guest Designer Spotlight: Sealiously Sweet Cards with Keeway Tsao

Hello friends! It’s Keeway Tsao from Kiwi Koncepts and I’ll be sharing some summer inspirations with you today. This year has been tough for all of us and never before I have I be so thankful to have this hobby to help me stay sane indoors and continue to reach out to my friends and family through cardmaking!

My projects will be focused on the recent summer release, particularly the Sealiously Sweet stamps! These adorable seals caught my eye immediately and I can’t get enough of them. I colored the entire set with Copic markers and die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I also used the Tropical Scenes stamps to help me set this fun tropical scene for my adorable seals. I did some simple ink blending with distress oxide inks to give it that oceanic look and then I stamped my sentiment in the top right corner.

I added my colored island onto the card and then all the different seals for this fun, tropical party! Don’t you just want to jump in and party with them?

This next card uses the remaining seals and accessories that didn’t quite make it to the first card! This time, I decided to go for an oceanic shaker card. I used the Stitched Arch dies and Subtle Grey Tones 6x6 paper to create my frame and added a layer of acetate sheet behind it.

I created a simple backdrop with ink blending again and lightly splattered it with water and paint. I added some layers of foam tape around for the shaker frame and added lots of iridescent blue, green, and clear sequin into the area to give it that ocean sparkle. I then added my frame to close off the shaker area.

I usually like to shake the card at this point a couple times to make sure I had a good “seal” around the card so that sequins aren’t falling out. Then, at last, I can add the rest of my images to the card with foam tape.

I hope you enjoy today’s inspiration. Have a lovely summer!
