Creative Stampers Tutorial Group Blog Hop - Way to Goat

Hey hey hey crafty friends,

I'm coming to you today with a super cute project as part of a blog hop I'm doing with the Creative Stampers Tutorial Group. Every month, our group decides on a theme/suite and each of us design a project and share a tutorial for the project, which includes supplies, measurements and instructions! My dear friend Rick compiles all of the tutorials and puts them together in a neatly packaged PDF document. The tutorial bundle is free with any size order with me, and provides tons of inspiration and project ideas. I also give it to my team of pINKsters for free as a special perk. This month, our theme is Cozy Critters, here's a sneak peek:

In addition to our tutorial project, we're also sharing another BONUS project for a blog hop! Here's my second project using this set and a few other goodies!

I just LOVE the Way to Goat stamp set, new in our 2020-2021 Annual Stampin' Up! catalogue.  This set includes super images and punny sentiments which crack me up! For my project, inspired by a cute card I saw on Pinterest, I decided to use the new Playful Alphabet dies - another new fave - for the sentiment! Don't you just adore that mini envelope?

Here's the scoop on how I made the card:

• I used Gray Granite Cardstock as my base and layered with Magenta Madness (3 3/4" x 5") and Whisper White (3 5/8" x 4 7/8")
• I embossed the white piece using the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder
• I stamped the goat on whisper white with Memento Black ink and coloured it in with Gray Granite Combo and Ivory Stampin' Blends. I then fussy cut it using paper snips
• Using Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper, I did an ombre watercolour wash using Magenta Madness Ink and water painters; I left it for a few minutes to dry
• Using the Playful Alphabet dies, I cut out the letters for 'you got mail' and some small hearts, which came from the Birds & Blooms Dies and the Well Written Dies
• Using a small piece of Flowers for Every Season (and lots of trial and error), I made a teeny tiny envelope - isn't it cute??

I just love how it turned out - the ombre letters and cute little envelope are the star of the show, in my opinion. Oh and of course, the cheeky goat ;)

I hope you enjoyed this card today and thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day, hope it's the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) - couldn't resist ;)

Hugs,
