A Catalogue Sneak Peak - Wild About You - Paper Players #390

Finally today I get a chance to play with one of the new stamps in the upcoming Annual catalogue (launch date May 2).  I actually received this stamp set as part of the prize patrol at On Stage London in early April and was really excited to get it. If you ever get a chance to go to any of the local On Stage events put on by Stampin' Up go!!

I decided to use one of the images from this stamp set for the sketch challenge with the Paper Players 

A strip of two patterns of the Crumb Cake DSP was placed across a piece of Whisper White cardstock adhered to a Soft Suede card base.  All the edges  were sponged with Crumb Cake ink before making this base card.

The kangaroo with a wee baby in its pouch was coloured with water color pencils and blended with a blender pen. After die cutting this image with a circle framelit it was matted with a larger Soft Suede circle and adhered to the card front with dimensionals. For interest I added a small branch at the upper right and fussy cut a tiny frog which I placed on top of the branch.  I know you can hardly see him but he was so cute I could hardly resist.

On the right side of the focal point, a strip of burlap ribbon was placed underneath the sentiment "Wild About You" and the card was complete.
