The 'pawfect plushies' stamp set contains such adorable plush cats and dogs - they are perfect for sweet baby cards! Like always I love the font of the sentiments in the set.
For my teaser I used two cat and two dog images and colored them in with Copic markers. I fuzzy cut and set them aside to work on my background.
I created a square stencil with a square die set and created four square areas on a white cardbase. I didn't use watercolor paper but adhered the ink directly onto the card base. Due to that I chose distress oxide inks because in my opinion they blend better on normal paper than distress inks. I chose neutral colors to be able to send this card for a newborn boy or girl. The colors I used are tattered rose, shaded lilac, squeezed lemonade and cracked pistachio.
I diecut four smaller squares and used the same colors to sprinkle some color dots. Then I adhered the squares to my cardbase with foam dots and used liquid glue for the cute plushies. I stamped the sentiment and adhered some clear sequins. With Nuvo drops I added some details to the eyes.
Lisa, this is such a sweet and cute card! I think your plushies look adorable and such a good idea to keep the colours neutral. I agree the Oxides blend so much better - I don't have too many but am gradually increasing my stock! Lovely to have you on board as a Guest Designer and I am looking forward to seeing what else you have made. Lisa x
