Wild & Sweet

Hello friends,

This cute little koala is from the Wild & Sweet stamp set (158775).

I stamped the koala with Crumb Cake ink (#147116). I coloured this with Stampin’ Blends - Granny Apple Green (#154885), Crumb Cake (#154882), Smoky Slate (#154904) and Pecan Pie (#161674). I used Balmy Blue ink (#147105) and a Blending Brush (#153611) to colour around the koala.

The koala & Balmy Blue card (#147007) were cut with the Deckled Rectangles dies (#159173).

I stamped the Rays Of Light stamp (#158925) onto the Balmy Blue card with VersaMark (#102283) and added the White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056).

“Happy Birthday” is from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) and this was stamped with Balmy Blue ink. A Labels Aglow die (#159551) was used to cut the sentiment. The matted koala and the sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The base card is Basic White (#159228).

Wild & Sweet

Hello again,

I have been asked to make a card with this cute little koala from the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775).

The koala was stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) on Basic White card (#59228). I cut this card and the Mossy Meadow card (#133683) with the Layering Diorama Dies (#155565).

The leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) were stamped with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111) then cut with the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714).

The Stitched Greenery Die (#155451) was used to create the stitching on the Crumb Cake card (#121685), then this was matted with Mossy Meadow card and attached to the Basic White base card.

The matted koala was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). The leaves were attached with Mini Glue Dots (#103683) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Birthday Wishes” from the Nested Friends stamp set (#160322) was stamped with Mossy Meadow ink and cut with a Beautiful Shapes die (#158046). This was also attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Wild & Sweet

Hi & welcome,

I was asked to make a card with a koala so used the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775) which has this beautiful koala image.

I stamped the koala with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) onto Basic White card (#159228). The leaves were coloured with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885). I added some extra colour to the koala with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882), and Ivory Stampin’ Blends (#154922) and Crumb Cake to the branches. I added Balmy Blue ink (#147105) with a Blending Brush (#153611) to the background. The koala and the Gold frame were cut with a die from the Fabulous Frames (#159163) and both attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The Gold Foil (#132622) was used for the frame and the card front. I punched the corners of the Gold Foil with the now retired Detailed Trio Punch. The Soft Sea Foam card (#147012) was dry embossed with the Metal Plate 3D Embossing Folder (#160766). The corners were cut with the Very Best Trio Punch (#159878).

“Happy Birthday” is from my favourite greetings stamp set, Go To Greetings (#158763) and stamped with Granny Apple Green ink (#1147095). This was cut with a die from the Something Fancy Dies (#160424) and attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Wild & Sweet stamp set

Hi friends,

From 1st November the Framed Florets Dies (#160623) & Framed Florets stamp set (#161815) will be available to purchase. These are an early release from the Mini catalogue which will be available from January 2023. I have used the dies for the frames on this card.

I stamped the cute koala image from the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775) using Crumb Cake ink (#147116). Using a Blending Brush (#153611) and Balmy Blue ink (#147105) I added some light blue around the koala. The Stampin’ Blends to colour the stamped image are Crumb Cake (#154882), Ivory (#154922), Soft Sea Foam (#154902) and Old Olive (#154892).

I cut the frame from the Brushed Metallic cardstock (#153524) using a Framed Florets die. This card was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). I also cut a piece of Very Vanilla card (#106550) with another die. This was attached to the card front with Mini Glue Dots (#103683), then the frame was placed over this.

“Happy Birthday” from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) was stamped with Soft Suede ink (#147115). This was cut with a Potted Succulents die (#154330). This was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added the Classic Matte Dots (#158146) to finish the card.

Wild & Sweet

Hi stamping friends,

As an Aussie I am so pleased to have this cute koala as part of the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775). We have the occasional koala on our property which is always very exciting to see them just outside our door.

The koala was stamped with Crumb Cake ink (#147116). I used Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) for the leaves and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882) for the branch as well as some Granny Apple Green. I lightly coloured the sky with a Blending Brush (#153611) and Balmy Blue ink (#147105). The koala image and the Mossy Meadow card (#133683) were cut with the Layering Diorama dies (#155565).

For the card front I used Very Vanilla Card (#106550). I dragged one edge of the Soft Sea Foam ink pad (#147102) down the card. The leaves from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559) were stamped onto the card with Mossy Meadow ink (#147111), Old Olive Ink (#147090) and Pear Pizzazz ink (#147104). Next I dragged the VersaMark pad (#102283) twice down the card to cover the entire card. Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554) was sprinkled over the entire card, then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This gives a lovely shine over the whole card.

“Hello” is from the Artistically Inked stamp set (#154542) and stamped with Mossy Meadow ink. A Beautiful Shapes Die (#158046) was used to cut the sentiment. The koala & sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Wild & Sweet stamp set

Hi & welcome my friends,

We have the occasional koala on our property (not as many as we used to have visit us) so was very excited to see this cute koala image as part of the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775).

I stamped the koala with Smokey Slate ink (#147113) onto Basic White card (#159228). I used Ivory Stampin’ Blend (#154922) to colour the koala, Soft Sea Foam (#154902) & Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends (#154882) for the tree branches and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends (#154885) for the leaves. I also added some glitter to the koala with the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897). I lightly blended the background with Balmy Blue ink (#147105) and a Blending Brush (#153611).

The stamped image & Old Olive card (#106576) were cut with the Deckled Rectangles Dies (#159173). I dry embossed the Old Olive card with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder (#156406). I gold embossed the edges of the Old Olive card and the stamped image with VersaMark (#102283) and Gold Stampin’

Emboss Powder (#155555) and set this with the Heat Tool (#129056). See tip below.

I backed a piece of Old Olive card with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) before cutting the leaves from the Delicate Edges dies (#159180), then attached this to the base card.

The base card is Very Vanilla (#106550). The designer paper is from the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper (#159161). This is a Host product so can be used with Stampin’ rewards with a qualifying order. There are 48 sheets in this pack so is great value.

“Happy Birthday” is from the Go To Greetings stamp set (#158763) and also Gold Embossed. A Stylish Shapes Die (#159183) was used for the sentiment. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the sentiment and the Koala to the card.

TIP: To gold emboss the edges of the rectangles, I wiped the edges of the card onto the VersaMark pad, added the Gold embossing powder then set it. If you find that there is too much powder, I used a small brush to wipe off the excess before setting it. If you feel there isn't enough powder, set it first then re-apply the VersaMark & powder and heat set it again.

Wild & Sweet stamp set

Hello crafty friends,

I was so excited to see this very cute koala in the upcoming annual catalogue, so here is a sneak peek of the Wild & Sweet stamp set (#158775).

I stamped the koala with Crumb Cake ink (#147116) onto Basic White card (#159228). I coloured the tree trunk with a Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend (#154882). The leaves were coloured with light Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend (#154885). I fussy cut this stamped image. 

I dry embossed the Brushed Metallic Cardstock (#153524) for the background with the Stitched Greenery die (#155451). This was then matted with Pear Pizzaz card (#131290). I backed another piece of Pear Pizzaz card with Adhesive Sheet (#152334) and cut 2 leaves with the Forever Flourishing Dies (#152714) and attached these to the card front. 

The koala was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I cut a 3rd leaf without the adhesive backing as I was attaching this to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

“Hello” is from the Forever Fern stamp set (#152559), stamped with Pear Pizzaz ink (#147104) and cut with a Tasteful Labels Die (#152886). This was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and the Polished Dots (#158134) were added to the sentiment. The base card is Basic White card.

I added the Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to the koalas but I don’t think this shows in the photo.

The Tasteful Labels Dies are retiring.
