JAI #199: BABY CARD USING STAMPIN' UP! ZOO BABIES

This week at Just Add Ink, Tina has provided a sketch for us to use as a starting point for a card or other papercraft project.




I just couldn't get past a literal 'take' on this sketch!!  I've used three overlapping circular elements, but have moved the sentiment up, and placed ribbon below, rather than across, the circles.  Here's what I came up with, using some sweet new stripey paper, and a delightful dotty embossing folder, that will be available during Sale-a-Bration (from 28th January to 31st March - they're FREE with qualifying purchases!):




I would like to point out that the colour of the candy dots is a bit "out" in this photo; I used subtle (Calypso Coral) candy dots, even though they have photographed really red.

 
Stamps: Zoo Babies
Card: Pool Party, Sahara Sand, Whisper White, Crisp Cantaloupe
DSP: Sweet Sorbet Designer Series Paper (free during Sale-a-Bration)
Ink: Sahara Sand stampin' pad, Pool Party stampin' pad and marker, Crisp Cantaloupe marker
Other: Decorative Dots embossing folder (free during Sale-a-Bration), Subtles and Neutrals candy dots, Pool Party seam binding, 1 3/8" Circle punch, Circles framelits, Vintage faceted buttons, Stamp-a-ma-jig, sponge dauber, glue dots
 
 
Make sure you check out the rest of the Design Team samples - they are GORGEOUS.  We'd love you to make a card, or scrapbook page, or other papercraft project, inspired by this sketch, and share it on the Just Add Ink site.
