Hello friends! Today I am sharing several cards over on the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog using stamps released for the month of September. I have been having so much fun with the Fur-ever Friends Stamp set...I'm just nuts about all of the adorable critters that are a part of this wonderful stamp set designed by Jennifer Nilsson!
Creative Nugget: The background for my scene was created by applying Oxide Inks to a piece of acetate, spritzing it with water and patting and smearing the wet ink onto a piece of mixed media paper...blues on the top and greens on the bottom. A smaller rectangle was cut from the panel, mounted to a piece of white card stock and popping it back onto the larger rectangle. The fence and clouds were cut with retired dies from SNSS and were popped onto the scene along with the cute critters from Fur-ever Friends which were colored with Copic Markers and cut with my Scan 'N Cut. One of the sentiments from Fur-ever Friends was embossed on one of the clouds to finish the card.
Creative Nuggets: Oxide Inks were swiped down a piece of mixed media paper and stamped with the wood slice from the Wood Background stamp set. This panel was then embossed with the wood texture Impression Plate. A circle was cut from the ring off the edge of the paper. More texture was added to the wood background using one of the stamps from the Texture Tiles 2 stamp set. This panel was popped onto a piece of brown card stock and the sentiment was white embossed. The cute little squirrel, acorns and leaves from the Fur-ever Friends stamp set were colored with Copic Markers, cut with my Scan 'N Cut and popped onto the front of the card.
These stamp sets from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store were used to create the cards above:
