Hey Crafters! Priscilla here with the second stamp set release for May from Kat Scrappiness called “You Guac My World.” Aren’t these avocados adorable?
When I saw one particular image in the set of the “Mama” avocado holding her baby, I knew I wanted to make a “Welcome Baby” card, but of course, a non-traditional one. LOL!
At the top is “Mama,” probably 9 1/2 pregnant with “Baby Avo.” And Avo, “in utero,” looks more than ready to bust loose! I stamped and then colored both avocados featured on the card with Copic Markers before cutting them out with my Brother Scan N Cut machine.
“Baby Avo” is really one of the critters from Kat‘s “Cute Critters Sprinkles Embellishment Mix.” I “implanted” her in Mama’s womb before covering both mother and child with Ranger Glossy Accents.
The background of the card was created with a grid stencil and a blend of Distress Oxides inks in “Spun Sugar” and “Worn Lipstick.” The green paper on the left and the stamped sentiments are from my stash. (I used one of Kat’s “Stitched Sentiment Strips” for the “Congrats” sentiment.)
To finish off the card, I used some of Kat‘s “Mixed Flower Sprinkle Embellishment Mix” to represent the path from “in utero” to “out of utero,” and pink “Nuvo Dream Drops” for the avocados’ cheeks.
My second card is a birthday one, with “Avo” and her parents on a cake platter. The background was created with the same stencil grid, but this time I used “Twisted Citron” and “Squeezed Lemonade” to create a soft blend before die cutting the panel using one of the Kat Scrappiness “Cross Stitched Rectangle” dies.
Here’s a closeup . . .
The stars are from Kat’s “Pink Solid Start Confetti Mix.”
