Zany Zebras waterfall card

 Thank you for joining me today!

Happy 3rd Birthday Freddie, where does the time go!

This is my version of a card created by Lisa Cursio (lisasstampstudio.com) I had to make it a little bit bigger, hence the scalloped base for the card (nsu). Once I worked out the measurements I wanted, it was very straight forward to complete. At the time of making this card only the ribbon and tag punch were retired.

I think this is the best waterfall card I've made so far!  

Sorry it's a bit photo heavy.

There is also a zebra stamped on the pull mechanism, just loved this set and didn't get to use it as much as I'd have liked to.

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: basic white, calypso coral, night of navy

Designer Series Paper: *playing with patterns

Dies: playful alphabet *stitched shaped frames (4)

Embossing Folders: hammered metal 3D

Ink: calypso coral, coastal cabana, crushed curry, night of navy

Punches: *classic label, *scallop tag topper

Ribbon: *sycamore street satin

Stampin' Markers: calypso coral, coastal cabana, crushed curry, night of navy

Stamp Sets:  a grand kid, *family party, *zany zebras 

* = retired, when using layering dies (1) is the smallest

Back On Your Feet meets Dockside

 Hello and welcome to my haven in a hectic world!

Thanks for joining me today!

My poor cousin was thrown from her horse last week and has fractured her hip, so thought a card was in order.

It's rotten to break something but I think a hip must be one of the worst, my son broke his this time last year so I can relate to what Alison has in front of her. Sorry it's a retired set but it's just so fitting!

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: pear pizzazz,  very vanilla

Designer Series Paper: *in colors 2010/12

Dies: dockside

Embossing Folders: tasteful textiles 3D

Ink: momento tuxedo black, mossy meadow

Ribbon: *taffetta

Stampin' Blends: crumb cake, old olive, soft suede

Stamp Sets: back on your feet

* = retired
