Chocolate Zoofari

I was playing around tonight. I wanted to make something fun after making 16 boxes today in my free time;)me winking! I decided to use my Zoofari stampset and my Chocolate paper that I haven't had a chance to play with yet!

I used my SU Soft Subtle markers in Mellow Moss, Apricot Appeal, Pretty In Pink, and Bashful Blue to color in the dots on the paper, alternately on the diagonal. Then I punched SU Apricot Appeal and Chocolate Chip cardstock, with the large and small tag punches. I cut Apricot Appeal and an Off White(similar to Very Vanilla) with my Mini Monograms cartridge to get the circle center and scalloped edge on my Cricut. I stamped the "tiger" from Zoofari and the "wild about you" from my Wild About You stamp sets in Timber Brown Stazon. I used water color pencils and my aqua painter to paint the image. Certainly Celery was used for wild about you and then trimmed tight and separated and mounted on 1/16th dimensionals. The tag and Scalloped Circle were distressed with Chocolate Chip ink, and punched with a 1/8th circle punch. I notched the edges of the card with my 1/4" circle punch, to keep the Satin Brown and Off White ribbon in place on the front of the card. They were threaded through holes that had been punched and riveted with 3 golden brown rivets. The images and tag were all mounted on 1/8th inch dimesionals, and a gold HeroArts gemstone 2mm size was used to add bling to the sentiment. I love these little gemstones I just bought another package of 3mm size. I like that they come in a 4 assorted color package. Well That is my simple card for today. I think it's turned out well. You might want to click on it to see the details better. Wish I had better colored pencils, I think I could have colored it better.

Until Later ...Happy Stamping!
