Daniel Tiger Punch Art Birthday Card

It was my niece's 3rd birthday recently, so I wanted to share the card I made for her of one of her favorite characters, Daniel Tiger.

All products are Stampin' Up!

I sponged on his stripes with a sponge dauber, and his whiskers are done with a white gel pen.

Golden Thank You - TSSC308

Today's card is one I've had in my head for a few days, but just haven't had time to put ink (and glue!) to paper.

It's for the sketch challenge at Techno Stamper. I like the gold and white combination, I guess the stars in the sketch made me think of using gold. I've never used washi tape as much as I use the Watercolor Wonder washi. Love it!




Recipe (all Stampin' Up!)

Stamps: Another Thank You

Ink: Versamark

Paper: Whisper White card stock, Gold foil paper

Misc: Gold embossing powder, gold sequins, gold bakers twine, Watercolor Wonder washi tape, dimensionals, Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Embossing Folders, Very Vintage Designer Buttons

Live, Laugh & Love

I often wonder when I look at some of the old cards I made 5 or more years ago when I first started stamping if the quality of my cards was bad (lol) due to my (in)experience or if the stamps, papers etc. from SU have just gotten better since then. But then I pull out some old DSP and stamps and realize it was just me!

Here's a throw back Thursday card for you using mostly retired products for the sketch challenge at Try Stampin' on Tuesday.




Recipe

InkRich Razzleberry, Melon Mambo
 

Paper: Razzleberry Lemonade DSP (retired), Rich Razzleberry, So Saffron, Whisper White card stock

Misc: Rich Razzleberry ribbon, rhinestones, dimensionals, sponge dauber

One Fish, Blue Fish - CCMC296

Here's another masculine birthday card. When I saw the colors for the challenge at Create with Connie and Mary, I knew I wanted to use this ribbon, but wasn't sure what I was going to do.
