This is one of the new sets I received today. I went with a simple scene, stamping the palm trees, and cutting out the stegosaurus and popping him forward. I wanted some extra texture, and thought that Canvas would go nicely. Finally, I was in the mood for a square theme, and isn't it just perfect that the Happy Birthday sentiment fits so nicely as a border on a 4.25 square card! I finished off the corners with one of my hoarded embellishments- Earth Elements buttons.
Supplies:
Stamps: It's Your Birthday, Prehistoric Pals, Canvas BG
Ink: Wild Wasabi, Really Rust, Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip
Paper: White, Wasabi, Rust, Cocoa
Accessories, etc.: dimensionals, buttons, stamp-a-ma-jig (even though I have unmounted this greeting set, for this type of placement, the SAMJ is crucial if you don't want to mis-stamp!)
