Bambi & Thumper look-a-likes

Here is the card for my card class tomorrow. We created a card (VERY) similar to it at a Stampin' UP! Team meeting I attended on Sunday. I added the deer and changed the sentiment, and also the background stamps are different because I didn't have the same ones. I think it still turned out pretty good.

Supplies I used are:

Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Summer Sun, Old Olive & Whisper White

Stamps: Oval All, Forest Friends, So Swirly Jumbo Wheel

Ink: Chocolate Chip, Summer Sun, Old Olive, Close to Cocoa & Creamy Caramel

Accessories: 1/16" Handheld Punch, Large Oval Punch, Scalloped Oval Punch, Gold Brads, Sponge & Dimensionals

Pistachio Torte Recipe Page

This is for my recipe card class on Tuesday! Here's how I made it:

• Started with a 6"x6" piece of Creamy Caramel Cardstock
• Stamped with Itty Bitty Backgrounds on the bottom 2"
• Cut a piece of 6"x3" Green Galore Cardstock
• Ran that through the Crimper
• Attached that to the center of the Creamy Caramel Cardstock
• Cut a 6"x0.5" piece of Whisper White Cardstock
• Cut a 6"x1.75" piece of Whisper White Cardstock
• Ran both pieces through the Big Shot with the Swirly Texture Background
• Roughed up one of the long edges of the 6"x1.75" Whisper White Cardstock.
• Attached the smallest piece of Whisper White to the bottom of the Green Galore
• Lined up the larger piece of Whisper White to the top of the Creamy Caramel which will also overlap the Green Galore about 1/8".
• Printed the Recipe onto Whisper White Cardstock & cut to 2.75"x5.5"
• Cut a 5.75"x3.5" piece of Close to Cocoa Cardstock
• Punch one side with the Eyelet Border Punch
• Attached the recipe to the Close to Cocoa Cardstock
• Then attached the recipe piece to the front of the mock pistachio torte looking page.
• To finish the page (not pictured) I added some 1/4" circles of Creamy Caramel & Close to Cocoa Cardstock to the top layer of Textured Whisper White for the nuts...forgot about that part before I took the picture.

Pull Out Flower Pot

Saw this over on SCS for a technique challenge & had to try it. This will be my lunch time card class for next week. Hope the girls don't get too overwhelmed with it in a 1/2 hour.

Used the Scalloped Circle Punch to create the flowers, also used the 5-Petal Flower Punch for the leaves behind.

Hope you like it! It was alot of fun to make!
