Stamped Stuff: Sept Projects - Zoo Review set

I am totally loving the Zoo Review set.  I've already made a couple of cards with this baby.  


This giraffe card was so easy, but it's really striking.  I used Chocolate Chip for the base, Sahara Sand textured with my Square Lattice folder for the contrast color, and then Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla for the layered Top Note shapes - cut with my Big Shot, of course.  Then I added the layered tag for a final touch.  Simple, but lovely.  


I call this card my Lion King card and it was one of my most popular Convention swaps. This technique is called "Highlighting" where I've set up the lion's head to be highlighted by stamping it in a different color and using our circle punches to create a mat for it.  I used our Confetti Vanilla paper for the background - that's why it has tiny flecks of color in it.  Then I cut the wavy piece with my Tasteful Trim die.  It's a great way to add a pop of color to any project.  It cuts four different patterns in one pass - $42.95 for the Big Shot.  Then I added a little snip of black polka dot ribbon to tie it all together.  The greeting, I borrowed from our In Wilderness set, but I think it goes perfectly with the Zoo Review set as well.  It says "In wilderness, I sense the miracle of life - Charles A. Lindbergh". 

The Zoo Review set has the lion, giraffe, polar bear, penguin, and zebra.  It is $22.50 for wood and $16.95 in clear.  You can click on the link below to go directly to my website to place on-line orders.
