STAMPlorations special release - the bee's knees

There are a couple new stamp sets being released over at STAMPlorations. They're from our own Shirley Bampton and here's the Little Owls set I got to play with today.


I decided to pick one of the owls and design a card around him. First up, I had to give that frazzled cutie a go.

Distress inks

I used my MISTI to stamp each line of the sentiment stamp with a different rainbow color, then perched Mr Frazzled on top of it. I love this large sentiment - both the message and the way it can carry a card design.

Then I decided to use the striped cutie cuz I felt the need to rainbow something else ;)

Copics

I stamped and masked the owl. Die cut a circle from scrap and using the negative as a mask, stenciled the clouds with light gray ink. Colored the owl, stamped the sentiment and gave the clouds a coat of Wink of Stella.


Shirley has a second new set out today with larger owls (both new sets are 10% off til August 10). Visit the STAMPlorations blog to see more inspiration using both sets. By commenting here and there before August 8, you could possibly win yourself a prize! Thanks for coming by. I'll have more makes with these cuties tomorrow.
