Stampin' Up! an Aussie Naturalisation

Welcome to a very special post, where I used Stampin' Up! stamps, punches and dies along with a die given to me (I think Kaiser craft for the gum nuts and leaves??), to create a congratulations card.  One of my very dear friends is now a naturalised Australian and this is the card I created for her, to celebrate her special day.

I used Swirly Scribbles thinlits dies to create the sun, Balloon Bouquet Punch, and I stamped and fussy cut the Koala from Kinda Koala-been busting to use that Koala!

I used the gum nut and gum leaves die to cut out the respective shapes and then shaped them with my bone.  I then sponged them and added "wink of stella" to give that golden shimmer.

The card is a tri fold card 12" long, scored at 4 and 8" and then accordion folded.  I wanted the inside of the card to represent the Australian flag but in flowers....  the sun is from the Stampin' Up!

I'm hoping this is in some way representing the Australian flag - I used the Botanical Builder framelits dies to create each of the flowers.

Stampin' Up! Fox Builder Punch fun 2

Welcome to another post on A Crafty Cat.  Today we play with the Fox Builder punch and have a little fun creating various cute little animals.  My first creation was a case from pinterest - Nikki Spencer - just love this layout and the little raccoon which I stamped using the stripped tail, face, eyes and nose, legs and ears from the set Foxy Friends

I raised the head with a dimensional to give the card a bit of dimension...  The petite flower is centred with the flower from the Tree builder punch.

Next I had to create this gorgeous card - that could be used as a Christmas card with that tree in the background!  Again this card was cased from pinterest...the background embossed with Woodland Embossing folder   The beaver - inspired by Heather Payne and her creation featured in a post earlier this month - love this card...
