Foxy Forest - Stampin' Up! Playing in the Rain

    It's that time of the Stampin' Up! year when it's a crap shoot as to whether the products I've designed with are still available by the time I post the card.  Once the Last Chance list has been released some products sell out really quickly so if anything that I've used today is sold out when you check the store I'm really sorry!  Rest easy though since the next catalog always has something you'll want just as much as a retired item!

  I've mixed and matched some retiring Annual Catalog items with a stamp set from the mini catalog that will continue to be available.  I designed this card as my March customer thank you card.  I'd love to be your demonstrator and send you a card!  

  The card starts with a piece of the Happy Forest Friends DSP adhered to the card base (I used the retiring Sahara Sand here but you can't see it).  Then a band of Calypso Coral cardstock.  I created the scene using the grassy mound stamp from Happier Than Happy stamped a few times in retiring Pear Pizzazz ink.  The word bubble is stamped in retiring Soft Suede and is from the mini catalog set Conversation Bubbles.

  The fox from Playing in the Rain is stamped in Soft Suede and colored with Blends (Cajun Craze and retiring So Saffron).  I stamped the umbrella a second time onto another pattern from Happy Forest Friends DSP and then fussy cut it for some paper piecing.  Once all that was finished the fox is die cut and then popped with dimensionals.

  A few Pebbled enamel shapes (currently on sale on the clearance rack) are scattered on the ground and an Old Olive twill ribbon knot is added to the the side of the panel.

  Products can be ordered in my ONLINE STORE.  Order sooner for best selection.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
