Animal Friends

>> Tuesday, June 4, 2019

Hi Everyone,

I have a couple of animal themed cards to share with you today and both of them use some of the new stamps that have been recently released here at DRS Designs.

On my first card the animals are accessorized for summer using the 4 in 1 Fashion Accessories.  I stamped and colored Jimbo and the Gang and then added the fussy cut sunglasses, hat and bow tie.  I attached it to a base that was stamped using the Silhouette Leaf Background and created a sentiment for it by combining a couple of greetings, Jungle Out There and Flakey Friends Winter Greeting.


While this new background stamp is named Camouflage Background, I couldn't help but see cows when I looked at it.  I'm not sure what that says about me, since I'm nowhere close to being a farm gal!  If you're of a certain age, think Ava Gabor's character on the TV show Green Acres, and that's me :)

Anyhow, I stamped the camouflage in black and created a cow using my owl punch, a die cut oval, and googly eyes.  I wasn't able to piece together a sentiment, so I created one. It took me awhile, I was working on the word moo, but it wasn't coming together for me. Then I switched to the word cow, so I hope the pun comes across as a form of " How are you?" :)


Be sure to click on over to the new releases page at DRS Designs for all of these stamps and much more!

Have a great day,
Karin

Karin, these cards are the best! I love your jungle card - the animals look so great with your coloring and the sunglasses! Brilliant combination of images and sentiments on that one. The second is my fave with that fun cow you made and the camo spots - Wow! Now that is creativity at its best. I will be casing that idea for sure! Fun, fun, fun post! Hugz

That cow card is just too cute! I never thought of using the camo to make black markings for a cow, genius! Love the letters too, how cute!
Your jungle card is so cute as well, love them both!

You hit both of these completely out of the ballpark Karin! Your jungle card is adorable! They are definitely the "coolest" on their block and the bow tie on the giraffe just cracks me up! As for your cow card - I'm amazed! I had the same thought to use the camo background as a cow pattern but was stumped by our lack of cow images. I'm blown away by how you created the cow face and I LOVE the greeting. Totally awesome post!!!

These are hilarious, Karin! Love your cool jungle guys. (So funny I used part of that same greeting on a card to come!) Your cow print is over the top. Love the big googlie eyes & fun greeting.
