June Club Card 1

Here is a card we did in my 3 clubs this month ~ it's using a retiring stamp set called Wild About You. We used the "thumping" technique with Stampin' Up!'s markers. For this technique we inked our image first in Certainly Celery Classic Ink, then used the Garden Green marker. Using the brush tip end, you just "thump" the marker onto your inked stamp, huff on the stamp, then stamp your image onto your cardstock. Just remember to always ink in a lighter color, then thump in a darker color so you don't mess up your markers! Don't you just love the "bite" taken out of the corner using the Scallop Circle punch!

Hope you like it!!

Supplies:
Stamps: Wild About You
Paper: Garden Green, Certainly Celery, Kraft, Whisper White
Ink: Certainly Celery, Garden Green
Accessories: Slit punch, Hemp Twine (natural), Scallop Circle punch

Rene...I love the Wild About You card, especially the "bite" out of the corner. What a cute touch. -- Ami

Oh, Rene! I just love this card! Love the bite out of the corner. I'm so sad this set is going bye-bye.
