Our Stampanions Group challenged each of us to do a swap with new SETS in the current catalogue, using only current items and nothing else but Stampin'Up!. My new set is the Animal Cracker and the Sweet Always DP.
It was tough as I am not used to having/using limited supplies and I really don't have much. I always rely on my Nestabilities and Cuttlebug Embossing folders, and other non-Stampin'Up! products to create cards. And of course, this is my first swap within the group.
Boy, did I play and play and play. You should see my basket full of rejects. (LOL). All I can say is thank goodness that Stampin'Up! came up with the Circle Plus Cutter. I was able to create the circles using the Cutter Plus. Measurements were cut at 3 1/2" for the striped circle and 3 1/4" for the Pink Pirouette circle. The colors were so sweet and subtle, but the giraffe was missing something else. So I added a mane to the back of the giraffe's neck. I used the Chocolate Chip Grosgrain ribbon, cut it in half, and frayed the threads off, and used 2-way glue to glue the ribbon down.
So what do you think? I passed? I sure hope so, as I had to make 12 of them and now they are ready for delivery.
He turned out really cute!
TFL!
