The Thank a Bunch Sale-a-Bration stamp set just might become addicting! Those carrots are so cute. The best thing is that they can be earned for free here in the US with a $50 order from Stampin' Up! You can do that right from my online store here. Here's my card for today.
You can make this card quickly! The base is Thick Basic White cut to 4 1/4 x 11. Score at 5 1/5.
Stamp the small bunch of carrots over the front of the card. Use Pumpkin Pie ink. It won't matter if you get the area that the designer paper will cover. Turn the stamp in different directions and let it run off the page. Be careful to leave enough room for the greenery. I used Garden Green for the greenery. If you want it to be more matchy matchy use Granny Apple Green. I thought it looked just fine. I added the dots to fill up some of the space.
The pretty stripe paper is from the Dandy Designs Designer Series Paper. This paper is also a choice from Sale-a-Bration. It's available with a $100 order but you will get 48 double sided pages that are 12 x 12. Colors used are Balmy Blue, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Fresh Freesia, Granny Apple Green, Mango Melody, and Petal Pink. The designs are all generic and are great for any kind of card. For my card today it is cut to 2 1/4 x 4 1/4. I always use my Grid Paper to make sure that I'm lining my paper straight. I also use Multipurpose Liquid Glue because it has a little give just in case I need to quickly move it a little.
Stamp the carrots on a scrap piece of Basic White. I have found that stamping the accent part of the carrot works best. Well, I will say I found that out after I had already made this card! I used Pumpkin Pie for that. For the full carrot that is stamped on top, stamp it off on scrap paper. Then match it up and stamp.
For the leaves, stamp the large leaf in Granny Apple Green and then the more detailed leaf on top in Garden Green.
Cut out all of the carrots and leaves. The bottom carrot is glued to the card. The top is added with dimensionals. For the leaves I added them with a glue dot at the base and a dimensional further out.
Stamp the saying in Pumpkin Pie and in Garden Green. Trim around them and glue to the card front.
Add some of the Classic Matte Dots to embellish.
Here's the inside of the card. It's all from the Thanks a Bunch stamp set.
