Hey everyone! I'm so excited to be hopping along with so many amazing designers as part of a week long celebration for Neat & Tangled's 5th Birthday!
You can check out Neat & Tangled's blog HERE <-----click! for all the info on the hop and links to all the posts throughout the week!
You can also start HERE for today's blog hop. I'm SUPER excited to be participating with Shari Carroll, Cathy Zielski and Kristina Werner today! I'll have links to all of them below!
Neat & Tangled released some adorable products for this release - you can check them all out here!
I used the new Wild Ones stamp set and coordinating dies to make this card:
I made a tall card for once! I generally stick to standard A2 size cards 99% of the time, but for this card I wanted to stack all the characters on top of each other - so this card is 3.5" by 8.5" and will fit in a standard business envelope.
I used a whole lot of Copics to color in all the images. I included a list of them all in the picture here, and also listed them beside the image as I'm colouring them in the video.
After I'd stamped and colored and die cut all the images from the Wild Ones stamp set I stacked them using foam adhesive, and added a bit of Diamond Stickles for shimmer.
I stamped the little confetti images from the set using several Distress Oxide inks (so totally obsessed with those inks!) all over the card front.
The sentiments were a mix of one from the Wild Ones set and a birthday sentiment from the Neat & Tangled Puppy's Favorite Things stamp set. I mentioned in the video that I ordered the new Neat & Tangled Hooray die and stamp set but of course it didn't get here in time for this card - so I improvised ;). I linked to the stamp and die tho because they're great and I'll show them in a haul of course once it gets here ;) ;).
Finally, I finished the inside of the card by stamping several of the images with the same Distress Oxide inks, then stamped the Party Animal sentiment with black ink and that was it!
To see how this card came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the product images have sets of letters below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. SSS = Simon Says Stamp, AZ = Amazon, MFT = My Favourite Things, SnS = Scrap N Stamp (Canada) etc. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
