Stampin' Up!© Kangaroo Mother's Day

 Hello!  Welcome to my blog.  Today I am sharing a whimsical mother's day card. 

Also a reminder:  today is the last day for the Last Chance Products!  Shop for the items HERE.

I used Kangaroo & Company stamp set and Kangaroo Dies - available as a Bundle in the 2021 January-June Mini Catalog.  The images in this set are just so cute!

I also used Dressed to Impress stamp set for the sentiment.  This stamp set will carry over to the new 2021-2022 Annual Catalog, which starts tomorrow, May 4.

Dies:  Kangaroo Dies (Mini Catalog), Layering Circles Dies (carrying over to new catalog), Scalloped Contours Dies (available tomorrow in new Catalog)

I colored the images with Stampin' Blends:  soft suede, calypso coral (light), and petal pink.

I used some of the new Pale Papaya card stock as the base, and a layer of new Pansy Petals DSP - both the CS and the DSP are available starting tomorrow.  The Designer Series Paper has an abundance of Pansy floral images, but also the gingham (pale papaya) and polka dots (calypso coral with papaya) used on my card.

This card comes together pretty easily.  I stamped the kangaroos and the heart images in Early Espresso ink onto white card stock.  Then, using the Kangaroo Dies, I cut all three images out.

Using Stampin' Blends, I colored the kangaroos with light & dark soft suede; petal pink ears and cheeks; and the hearts in petal pink, shaded with light calypso coral.

The circle is die-cut from Layering Circle Dies.  The sentiment is stamped onto another piece of DSP with Espresso ink.  It is die-cut with the new Scalloped Contours Dies (available starting tomorrow).

Card base:  Pale Papaya CS, 11"x 4 1/4", fold at 5 1/2".

DSP (polka dots) from Pansy Petals DSP:  5 1/4" x 4".  Glue to card base.

Glue the sentiment piece, the circle piece, and the little kangaroo.  Slide the tip of the hearts image into the pouch of the mom kangaroo (the die cuts a slit there), and add a little glue to hold in place.  Then adhere the mom kangaroo to the circle, using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Done!  I'd love to know what you think.
