PP640 with Zany Zoo

 Good Morning,

Today is Sunday and that means it is time for a new challenge over at The Paper Players. I hope you all will make a project of your own and join us in this challenge. I picked an fun new stamp set, some fun colors and brand new patterned paper. Here's a sneak peak at my card.


Jaydee is bringing us a fun color challenge this week. The colors are pink, green, gray or silver and black and white. My first thought for these colors were that they would be great for a floral card, but I went a different way. What do you envision with Jaydee's colors?


The design team has created some creative projects to inspire you. Stop by our challenge page to see what we made. Drop us a comment while you are there.

For my card I started with a 5" by 2 3/4" piece of Zoo Crew DSP. I used a blending brush and Bubble Bath ink to color the DSP. The flowers were colored with Bubble Bath and Lemon Lime Twist blends. This was layered onto a 5 1/4" by 3" piece of Lemon Lime cardstock. This was layered onto a Bubble Bath card base. 

The skunk was stamped with the Zany Zoo stamp set and the mfrom the Yeti to Party stamp set (ret) were both stamped with black ink and cut with the coordinating dies. The skunk was colored with light black, Bubblebath, and Lemon Lime Twist blends. The mountains were colored with Smoky Slate blends and topped with Wink of Stella.

The trees were cut with the Zany Zoo dies from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock. The trees and mountains were adhered to the card front with glue. 

The pig was fussy-cut from the DSP and colored with Lemon Lime Twist blends. 
The pig and skunk were attached with dimensionals.

The sentiment from the June 2021 Paper Pumpkin was stamped with black ink and cut with the Stylish Shapes dies. This was attached with dimensionals. 

A bow of silver Simply Elegant Trim was attached to the sentiment banner. 

I hope you join us at The Paper Players this week. We would love to see what you create for this sketch challenge. You can enter your project from now until noon PST on Friday, May 19, 2023. See all the rules and requirements on the challenge page.

    Adorable, Suzy! These hiking critters certainly look like they are ready for an adventure. The paper adds to the "cuteness" factor. What a happy card!
