Thank You Big Time

The images in the Animal Outing stamp set do make a lovely thank you card, but that's not where I got the image for this card.

Would you believe I fussy cut the images from the Animal Expedition DSP?

This is a picture of a two toed sloth, so technically I should have placed him upside down.

I cut him out of the DSP, sponged the edges and adhered him to a 2 1/2" circle "dotted" with the  stamp from the Timeless Texture stamp set.  I sponged the edges of the circle with Mossy Meadow ink as well. Some Glossy Accents added to his body made him look more alive and realistic.

I started with a top folding Crumb Cake base, layered with a Very Vanilla piece embossed with the layered petal embossing folder.  The edges were sponged with Soft Suede ink before adhering it to the card base.

To the left is a notched animal print (also from the Animal Expedition DSP) with a rectangular piece of Crumb cake card stock embossed with the stripe and scallop embossing folder tucked underneath it.

The sentiment , from the same stamp set is punched out with the 1 1/4" circle punch and adhered just below the embossed crumb cake piece.  The word "friend" is from "A Big Thank You" and is punched with the Classic Label punch and then adhered just below the main sentiment.
