On Friday I posted another card using this same layout and The Gang’s All Meer stamp set. To say the least, I wasn’t really happy with the way the card turned out. So, this weekend I played around to see if I could come up with a card I liked…and here it is! You can see in this picture how the coloring in the DSP helps the images stand out better in the new card on the left and not looked washed out, like Friday’s card on the right.
I colored the meerkats the same, using the Crumb Cake Blends. The hats are stamped in Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, Pacific Point, Blushing Bride, and Coastal Cabana.
The only thing I change when I colored the cactus, was the color of the flower. I used Calypso Coral Blends instead of Flirty Flamingo. I then colored the flower using a Clear Wink of Stella pen.
This new version is much better right? I think I forgot to mention earlier that the DSP I used is Follow Your Art DSP. You can find it in the Annual Catalog on page 165. I try to utilize the papers from the Annual Catalog during this Sale-A-Bration promotion because they get forgotten during this crazy period.
Ta-Ta for now.
Happy Stamping!
