I have wanted to make this card ever since I got my Two by Two and Dinoroar sets with the new catalogue last year.
I have been thinking about it again recently because both of these sets are on the retiring list :( I have used them a lot but I still hadn’t attempted this card idea of mine.
The Paper Players have a clean and simple masculine challenge this week and when I saw the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches I thought it was the perfect time to give it a try.
Ingredients :
Stamps : Dinoroar, Two by two, Distressed dots
Card : pool party, white, lucky limeade
Ink : memento black, white, pool party
Other : copics, big shot, chevron ef, mds (sentiment)
It is not my own original idea, but my “take” on a funny Hallmark card I had seen a long time ago. I wanted to see if I could take inspiration from it but create my own Stampin Up version.
The original -
