Hello friends! We’re kicking off the August Release Countdown with some amazing new products!

Hel

I have two cards to share with you today! My first features the new Tiddly Inks “Pile of Fun” Stamp Set. To start, I first trimmed a piece of Chantilly Cream Card Stock to slightly larger than 4.25″ x 5.5″. I then blended this piece with some Frayed Burlap, Crackling Campfire, Ripe Persimmon, Mustard Seed, and Antique Linen Distress Oxide Inks starting with the darkest color in the lower left corner and working my way toward the top right corner with the lightest color.

Once dry, I then stamped this piece with the new, gorgeous Leaf Skeleton Background Stamp with Chocolate Brown Ink. I absolutely love how detailed this stamp is! Once finished, I then trimmed this piece down to 4.25″ x 5.5″ to get rid of any harsh ink stains that sometimes form on the sides of the card stock when ink blending.

I then layered this piece with a piece of Amarena Cherry Card Stock as well as a smaller piece of white card stock which I blended some Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Ink. I then stamped my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock, colored them with Copic Markers, and used the coordinating die-namics to cut them out. Lastly, I stamped my sentiment with Black Ink and adhered my images with 3D Foam Adhesive Tape for extra dimension.

Copic Colors Used:

• Pile of Leaves: Y13, Y38, YR14, YR27
• Individual Leaves: R35, YG06, R89, YR07, E47
• Skin: E0000, E000, E21, E13
• Reds: R05, R35, R39, R89
• Whites: 0, W00, W1, W3
• Gray Dog: 0, W00, W1, W3, W5
• Brown Dog: E31, E23, E25, E29
• Girl’s Hair: E50, E53, E55, E57

My second card features the sweet giraffe from the new Sweetest Safari Set 2 Stamp Set illustrated by Stacey Yacula. I used the Doubled Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namcis to frame my image.

How sweet are these images from both the Sweetest Safari Sets 1 and 2? I stamped all of my images onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock, colored them with Copic Markers, and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

Copic Colors Used:

• Giraffe: E41, E42, E43, E44 (spots E59, E29)
• Lion: E31, E23, E25, E29
• Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17, YG67
• Elephant: W00, W1, W3, W5
• Zebra: C00, C1, C3, C5, C7

For my background, I trimmed a piece of Field Day Prestige Card Stock to 4.25″ x 5.5″ and heat embossed the new Little Leaves Background Stamp with Fine Detail White Embossing Powder. Similar to my card above, I layered some rectangular pieces of card stock and added my image in the center with foam adhesive tape for extra dimension.
