Kind Koala

I was so happy to see that the Kind Koala stamp carried over to the current Stampin' Up! annual catalog. I wanted to use this cute stamp again and decided to fussy cut the koala from some Crumb Cake card stock. I used a blender pen to add some Crumb Cake ink to the ears. The blender pen also allowed me to add Crushed Curry ink to the flower petals.

I originally intended to die cut a Crushed Curry oval to layer on my card until I realized that I am out of Crushed Curry card stock. Another easy way to add a pop of color is to ink the edges of your card stock with the Stamping Sponges.

I enjoyed making this card last month to enter into the first TGIF Challenge. I love the color combination of Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral and Pool Party! Using card sketches and challenges are a fun way to take a craft break and make a card.

Supplies Used:
Stamp: Kind Koala
Card stock: Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Whisper White, & Crumb Cake
Ink: Black Staz On, Crumb Cake, & Crushed Curry
Tools: Blender Pens, Big Shot, Oval Framelits, Polka Dot Embossing Folder, & Stamping Sponges
Accessories: Pool Party Baker's Twine (retired) & button (retired)
