Hi, everyone! This week's Featured Stamper over at is Brian aka ZPaw Now.....congrats, Brian!! I chose this awesome lion card from Brian's gallery to case today. The lion image from Gray Wolf Graphics and the word dies from Top Dog Dies are unfortunately unavailable to buy these days since both companies are out of business. The lion image was stamped multiple times, fussy cut, and layered to create a 3D look. A clear glaze pen coated the eyes to make them look realistic. For the card base, a Cajun Craze Ink pad was swiped across creating a Faux Wood look. A small hole punch was used to create the faux brads. The image was framed with the following dies from Divinity Designs LLC: Oval Stitched Rows and Ovals. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

That lion is gorgeous, and your coloring is terrific, mf. How sad that both companies are gone!

Angela, this is a great case of Brian's inspiration card. What a beautiful lion image. Your coloring on him is beautiful and I love the dimensional layering. Such a perfect masculine card.

Majestic! This card is stunning and I so admire how you created the lion with those multiple layers. His color is fabulous as is the faux wood bg you created. Awesome card.
