Happy Little Stampers - CASE the Designer - October

Hi everybody and welcome to October and a new designer to CASE at Happy Little Stampers - CASE the Designer challenge!!

This month we are CASEing a card by the amazing Birgit of Crafting While I Wait:

Isn't this just amazing!!! I love the different colours combined for her bird and the soft background is gorgeous. This is where I realised that I don't own many bird stamps (must remedy that.....) but managed to find one feathered friend to add to my design:

I started off by stamping the flamingo on some white CS, colouring with my pencils and fussy cutting out (and then realising that I actually own the matching die-cut....doh!!). I then cut out the faceted heart die from white CS as well.

For the background I used my mini blending tool and Distress Ink 'Picked Raspberry' to blend over the card front and then stamped the pineapple with Hero Arts Shadow Ink 'Bubblegum'. The heart die was glued to the front with the flamingo popped up on foam tape. The sentiment was heat embossed in white on a strip of black CS and adhered over the heart along with some pink and clear sequins.

The flamingo and sentiment are from Lawn Fawn 'Flamingo Together'. The heart die and sequins are from Neat and Tangled and the pineapple stamp is from Waffle Flower 'Willy and Friends'.

I'm going to link this to the Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenge where their theme is 'Anything Goes'.

 

Will also link to the Simply Create Too Challenge # 119 where their theme is 'Black plus one other colour'.

You have the whole month of October to link your projects to the Happy Little Stampers - CASE the Designer challenge and if your needing any other ideas, pop over to the blog to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for you. Can't wait to see what you come up with in the Gallery!!


Take care
