Ink it! Stamp it! Design Team Blog Hop | Theme: Kids


Welcome to the Ink it! Stamp it! Design Team Blog Hop. This month we will be sharing projects inspired by our Kids theme. The full line up below will guide you through all the projects.

My project today was inspired by a couple of creative challenges. The layout was inspired by this weeks Sunday Stamps Sketch Challenge #230 and my card also fits in with the latest Casing the Catty Challenge #269 where you are using/caseing your favourite retiring bundle - I have used the Bonanza Buddies Bundle.



******************************************************


My adorable kids birthday card uses products from the retiring Birthday Bonanza Suite. I'm quite sad about this suite retiring as I find all the images in the stamp set fun and adorable - plus I just LOVE the Koala :)




The colours used in my card are Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight and Mango Melody. Plus Basic Black and Whisper White.

I stamped the adorable lion from the Bonanza Buddies stamp set using Daffodil Delight and Mango Melody ink, plus Pool Party for the party hat. Each image was cut out using the co-ordinating die from the Bonanza Dies.

Using a piece of Whisper White cardstock, I stamped random present images in a pile using Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Pool Party and Black Memento ink. (I used my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to add some lines on some of my present bows). Once done, I cut them out using the largest circle from the Stitched Shapes dies.

My sentiment is stamped in Bermuda Bay on Whisper White cardstock and was cut out using the narrow Stitched Rectangle, which I partially cut twice to make it longer.

To put my card together, I adhered a strip of the Birthday Bonanza DSP along the edge of my Bermuda Bay card base, adhered my stitched circle, then my sentiment and then the lion. I added a white sequin to the top of his party hat to finish it all off. Hope you like it :)
