Welcome to the NewAt SU! Blog Hop!
Our June 2023 theme is Kid's Cards. We were to create a card to send to a baby/child/kid/grandchild using something NEW from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog! I chose the Zoo Crew Suite Collection to create something special for my great granddaughter.
I am so obsessed with these these platform pop up cards! This is the 3rd one that I have made. When I saw the full page of dancing animals I knew I was going to try another one. I absolutely love the Zany Zoo Bundle. The little zoo animals are adorable. As usual, Stampin' Up has made some of the images in the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper (DSP) die cuttable. In this case you can die cut 1 image from each sheet in the Zoo Crew DSP. In the dancing animals (or animal ballerinas) page the Leopard Ballerina has a coordinating die. The rest of the animals/ballerinas can be fussy cut with your scissors. I adhered some Basic White Cardstock to the back of my DSP with some Adhesive Sheets and then cut the animals out. I colored them with my Stampin' Blends. I grabbed a good sized scrap of Crumb Cake Cardstock and embossed it with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. Using a Sponge Dauber and Early Espresso Ink I added color to the raised areas of the embossed cardstock. Cut this into strips, rounded the corners and set them aside. The curtains on the stage are Petal Pink Cardstock with Pool Party Cardstock tiebacks. the hexagon platform base is also Pool Party Cardstock. I stamped the sentiment with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Basic White Cardstock. I have used the retired Stitched Rectangle Dies for the sentiment mat. I also used the retired Country Gingham DSP for the 2nd mat. The Zoo Crew DSP floral sides have been colored with Stampin' Blends. I also created an envelope to match this pop up card. My great granddaughter is going to love this Birthday Card. She will be 10 years old in August.
I am working on tutorials for this and 3 other cards and will be posting them next week. Thank you for stopping by and please be sure to hop on to all of the other blog links to see the other kid's cards inspiration.
