Terrific Tuesdays

You’re Amazing

Today we’re continuing to look at the Jungle Pals stamps and dies, which are currently available in the Sale-a-Bration catalog through the end of February. I love all of the cute jungle critters in this set, but is there anything cuter than a sloth?!

For today’s card, I wanted to create a window design. When I noticed that the backside of a sheet of Softly Stippled designer paper had a jungle leaf pattern on the back, I knew I wanted to incorporate it as the background for my sloth scene in the window. I used Sketch 620 from Freshly Made Sketches for the layout.

We begin with a base of Pretty Peacock. The focal panel base is the Pool Party linen patterned sheet from the Softly Stippled paper pack. I began by choosing my window size and shape and diecutting it from the patterned paper. I chose the Everyday Essentials circle that cut both the larger and smaller portions at one time.

I used the reverse side of the smaller circle with the jungle leaf pattern on it to serve as the base for the window portion. I diecut my tree and sloth from Crumb Cake cardstock using the Jungle Pals dies. The sloth is colored using Stampin’ Blends. The tree leaves are diecut from Shaded Spruce.

The sentiment panel is diecut from white cardstock using the Thoughtful Expressions dies and stamped the sentiment from Wonderful Thoughts in the center. The flowers are diecut from soft shimmer paper and More Dazzle paper using the Jungle Pals dies, which the stems behind are diecut from Shaded Spruce using the Thoughtful Expressions dies. Opaque faceted gems are placed so that your eye naturally flows diagonally across the card.
