Wild About You My Darling

Stampin' Up! very generously gave all of us who attended the On Stage event in Sydney in April a copy of the Animal Outing stamp set.  Naturally, I was very grateful for the gift, however, I didn't immediately like the set and it's been languishing on my shelf ever since.

A Fathers' Day card made with the giraffe from the Animal Outing stamp set

However, today it caught my eye while I was in search of appropriate images for a child's birthday card (which I'll be sharing on 30 September) and one thing led to another.  I think this one is going to be a light-hearted Fathers' Day card for my wonderful husband!  He's been supporting my latest attempt at dieting - so he can probably relate to the leaf-eating giraffe!

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with our Special Guest stamper, Wendy Cranford - we are thrilled to have Wendy join us this month and so excited to CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) any project that has been created by her .  We hope you find great inspiration from the projects.


Whether you are starting the blog hop here at my blog, Stephanie Fischer - The Crafty Thinker, or have come from the person before me, be sure to click on the person listed under me further down the page to continue your journey on this blog hop.

  This is Wendy's beautiful card that inspired me.

I dotted some White Craft Ink into the sky with a small brush for subtle stars

I will be giving it to my wonderful husband for Fathers' Day.

I used the piece I cut from the edge of the panel to decorate the inside of the card

The techniques used are sponging and the reflection technique.  There are many great tutorials available for this technique which simply involves stamping the silhouette image onto a shiny surface such as a a piece of Window Sheeet, acetate or (as I do) the plastic sheet that forms part of the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig, turning it ink side down, positioning it and rubbing so that the ink transfers to the cardstock.

I hope you've enjoyed this card and I welcome your comments.
