Stampin Up Cute Fruit and Special Someone

 Hello and happy Hump Day!  I have a quick share today.  A couple cards made using some new Stampin Up Stamps.  I'm not creating much, but for some reason, I'm still looking at catalogs - and couldn't resist getting myself something new.

My first card features Stampin Up's Cute Fruit set.

 I actually purchased this for the banana since that's my favorite fruit.  There are also little smiley faces stamps to put on the fruit that I can't wait to use.  The pineapple is popped up, but basically a rather simple card.

My second card features Stampin Up's Special Someone set.  This is a double stamp sort of set where you stamp the main image (in black) and then the "fur" is a separate solid stamp.

I couldn't handle the flat colored "fur" so I went in with Copics and added a little shading.  The balloon shows the black outline stamp, and the inner red stamp - added a bit of glossy goodness.  I feel I missed the mark on the grass and clouds (hadn't done that in a while and obviously rusty).  I still like the end product for the most part.

Thank you for stopping by and taking a look!

I am entering the following challenges:  Crafty Sentiments Designs: Anything Goes, Digi Choosday: Anything Goes, Lemon Shortbread: Anything Goes, and Through the Craft Room Door: Anything Goes.

The colors and papers are so fun on the top card and I really love those sweet critters on the second card! Take care my friend! HUGS

  9. These are super cute. Adore that pretty fruit paper! Love those squirrels too. I listen to them chatter all day long at my Dad's house. I never knew how noisy they were! I've got to go browse the SU catalogue. It's been ages. I still have a pile of their classic stamp sets from 15-20 years ago. Love them!
