Congrats to Kathy, the newest Featured Stamper! She has a lovely gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the shaker & cute animals but used different stamps, dies, colors & made mine a winter card instead of a birthday card.

For my shaker card, I die cut the cute little critters & winter paper along w/ a scallop frame to go around the opening. I used a cellophane pkg, put large glitter inside then sealed the end & attached it behind the critters in the window. I added a fun foam frame behind to give it some lift for the shaker element. The greeting was actually stamped on the lt blue/grey panel behind the opening, but the glitter covered it too much so I stamped the greeting again & cut it to add on top of the shaker. I used a Sakura clear stardust glitter pen on the scarves of all the animals to add a little extra sparkle

Here are the Copics I used for everything except the fox:

The fox was colored earlier & here are the Copics for him:

A big congrats to Melissa, the newest Featured Stamper (FS833)! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the whale get well theme, but used different images, dies & colors, & since my greeting was bigger, I moved it to the stenciled background.

For my little whale card, after coloring & die cutting him, I added a couple of rounded rectangles under him & a section of die cut blue waves below him. The background was stenciled w/ different colors, then the greeting was split, above and below him. 

The white rounded square & whale were popped up a bit.

Here are the Copics I used. I colored the whole set but ended up using just the whale, so the blues & greys were used on him.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

It’s my turn to host the Featured Stamper Challenge (FS832), so a big congrats to Kate! After much browsing, I chose THIS card to case. I kept the tag & hearts, but used different images, dies &  straightened my layout (I have problems w/ tilted layouts).

After coloring my bunnies, I die cut them along w/ the medium tag of the set. The large heart behind them is from a separate set & I only inked the outline, colored it then fussy cut it. I had some heart shaped brads so I added one to the top of the tag. After stamping my greeting and the little hearts, I put it all together.

The bunnies are popped up w/ fun foam. I used a glaze pen to add some shine on a few areas.

Here are the Comics I used:
