Hump Day Lunch Break – Otterly Amazing and Friendly Seagulls

January 16, 2025 / Beth / 0 Comments

Isn’t this just the sweetest stamp set? And I love that is has coordinating dies with it! This is one of Stampin’ up!s newer Online Exclusive products. In fact it has a whole suite of products that coordinate with it!

I Many Many Moons ago when I was in high school I did a Otter Sculpture from clay and also a hand drawn sketch of an otter. I loved Art class, I always did (even more than recess!) So when I saw this bundle, I knew I had to have it and share it with you all.

I did not even use the Designer Paper with todays card can you believe it? the card base is Pretty Peacock cardstock measured at 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ folded in half (or scored at 4-1/4″) . I made the frame from Basic White Cardstock using the Perennial Postage dies. I cut Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Pool Party card stock to 2-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ and embossed it with the So Swirly embossing folder. I stamped the otters, colored with Pecan Pie Blends, then used the coordinating dies to cut out and to make the embossed cardstock look like waves. You can check out the video below from my YouTube Channel. Below that is the supplies I used that are available in my Online Store.

When you spend $60 (in US) in my Online store, you can get this Friendly Seagulls stamp set for FREE from Stampin’ Up! This is actually the card that inspired my Otter card, I found it on Pinterest but the person that created it did not have their name so I can’t give credit where credit is due.

Hump Day Lunch Break- Sweet Peas

July 19, 2024 / Beth / 0 Comments

Each Wednesday I feature a Hump Day Lunch Break, well sometimes it’s a dinner break. This week I featured the Sweet Peas Stamp set, create cute projects to celebrate new babies, show appreciation, or wish p-pea birthday. Plus this is a great set to color with your favorite coloring tools. I decided on using Watercolor pencils. I forget how fun it is to use my water color pencils, water painters and fluid 100 paper. This stamp set is soooo sweet I just could not resist playing around with it. In fact, I have been having so much fun with it that I will be featuring it for the August Studio Club. Make sure you sign up for my email so you can be the first to now when new classes, club, event and specials are offered. But without further ado, here is our Hump Day spotlight card.

Choose your favorite coloring tool and technique to add color to the cute images. The smaller ones easily fit on a die-cut shape or labels. I used the Nested Essentials dies here. When you pair the image and greeting, you end up with an absolute cuteness overload!
