Fast & Fabulous Zoo Crew cards, with a free project sheet


There's something special about a project in Black and White. I love to add an extra color to really make it pop. These cards were made at my July card club gatherings.  

I wanted a good size piece of the cute, printed Zoo Crew designer paper seen here on the front of the card.  But I also love the mostly Black sheets too.  So I came up with this card.  I added a thin line of Lemon Lime Twist cardstock between the two pieces of DSP (Designer Series Paper).   

I recommend adhering the large layer of DSP to the card base first.  Then adhere the Black DSP to the Lemon Lime Twist strip and add it to the card base.  All that's left is to stamp & heat emboss your greeting (from the Playing in the Rain set). 

Of course there's a cute die-cut stars (Wanted to Say dies) and a Baker's Twine bow to add too. 

Here's the inside:   

The stamped images and Balloon die-cut are all from the Zany Zoo bundle.

Here's a free project sheet if you'd like measurements, directions and a supplies list.  Download July 23 Zoo Crew

It's a great layout to show off both sides of your Designer Paper.  I hope you try it with your favorite papers!

  • Great way to use the Extraordinary Washi Tape with video


    We made this beautiful card at my February card clubs. It features the Extraordinary Washi Tape from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.

    Aren’t they pretty? And because the washi tape includes two color combinations (all in one roll) I was able to offer two choices of colors. You can see this pretty Washi tape here.

    It also has a stamp & die bundle that matches it perfectly. I used only the single die seen here. What I love about this die is it cuts out all of one huge panel of flowers/leaves all at once! It’s a most amazing product, (well named) and incredible that you get 16 gorgeous flowers cut all at once!

    That neat embossing folder on the large Vanilla is called Beautiful Pattern and can be seen here.

    My colors include Old Olive and Very Vanilla, plus Calypso Coral with Petal Pink and Berry Burst with Fresh Freesia. We wrapped Old Olive twine around the Vanilla layer twice and tied it into a bow to anchor the flowers & greeting.

    The other bundle I used is the Words of Beauty seen here. So many possibilities for greetings in this one.

    A few other dies used here are theTextured Notes dies seen here (which are retiring but unavailable right now) and the Label Me Grateful dies which just retired.

    I also used the ‘With You in Mind’ stamp set for the inside: A thin 1/4″ strip of matching CS finished it off nicely.

    Here’s the free project sheet for this card. Click here to download or print it.

    I hope you watch the video below to get the tips on using these products and finishing the card. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel while you’re there!
