Juggling animals

Good evening,

These two cards use the Hero Arts Playful Animals stamp set….so cute! I am doing a lot of cute animals/critter cards of late! (I put it down to having 2 little kids!). When I saw these two animals from the set the first thing I thought of was them juggling buttons, and so that is what I did!

I cannot take the credit for the design of the first card however….it is a complete CASE of this bright and cheerful card by the very talented Amy Wanford. As soon as I saw this card on her blog I fell in love with everything about it…thanks Amy for sharing your talent!!

The second card uses the same bright colours but is very different. I had fun making my own patterned paper with words from the same set and Versamark watermark ink.

You will have to excuse the glossy accents on the monkey’s yummy….it wasn’t quite dry, hence the cloudy look!

  3. You don’t have to be a kid to love these bright cheerful cards. The ‘juggling’ idea was inspirational. I also love the black strip behind the bear and your handmade printed paper, they are both really FUN cards!
