More Bonazna Buddies!

This card is sooo fun!!  And I used such a cute stamp set- 'Bonanza Buddies', to create it.  I'm sure having fun creating with this Bundle!

You can CLICK below to see a couple other cards I created with the Bonanza Buddies Bundle.

• HERE!
• AND HERE!

Check out this toucan.  He is an image in the Birthday Bonanza DSP!  He is actually going the opposite direction of the die.  So I used an old Stampin' Up! Light Box I had, to help me cut him out.  

Keep scrolling down to find out how I did it!

• I plugged in the Light Box & turned it on.

• I laid the DSP, so that the patterned side was up & & the toucan was on the underneath side.
• I laid the die over the toucan- that I could see through the DSP, because of the light. 
• I used some washi tape to help hold the die in place.  
• I carefully picked up the DSP & die & placed it onto my Magnetic Plaform, on my Big Shot.
• And I cut it out!

•  This is what it looked like after it was cut out.

• And I flipped it over & this is what the toucan looked like.  
• NOTE that he had a hat on.  I cut the top part of the hat off.  Since I stamped a birthday hat to put onto him, it didn't matter that just a little bit of the hat image from the DSP was there.

ALSO:  If you do not have a light box, you can use the sun shinning through a window.  This will work, but it is just harder to get the die lined up this way, since it isn't laying on a flat surface!  But if you don't have a light box- no worries- you can still cut reverse image like this out.  

 Look at the pile of toucan's I cut out......some are facing right & some are facing left!

They they will work either direction when placing them on this card.

As this is what the finished card looks like!
Just so cute!

Awhh.....I just love this daisy card!!  And honestly, these are not a normal color combination for me!!  But I wanted to use this Garden Lane DSP!  So this is what I decided to create with it!  I am very happy with the way it turned out!!  It is a very pretty card!

 
I used a LOT of RETIRING products when creating this card-

• 'Painted Harvest' stamp set- RETIRING!
• Clear Faceted Gems- RETIRING!
• Leaf Punch- RETIRING!
• Pearlized Doilies- RETIRING!
• Garden Lane DSP- RETIRING! 
• Tufted 3D Embossing Folder- RETIRING!

And look at it when it standing up!!  I did my favorite "z fold" with it too!  I thought it just made it that much more special.

NOTE:  The words & the leaf stamp- are both in the 'Painted Harvest' stamp set!  It is awesome that this leaf coordinated with the Leaf Punch!  I love the sunflowers in this 'Painted Harvest' stamp set.  It is on page 128 in the Annual Catalog.  Check it out!!  If you are a stamper that attends my monthly classes- you probably already have this stamp set, as I've used it a lot over the past few years!  I will sure miss it!  And I'm going to really miss the Leaf Punch, as it is an all time favorite & go to punch of mine!  If you don't have either of these.....you might want to get them before they are gone. 


This card would make a great All Occasion card- sympathy, birthday, Mother's Day, thank you, etc.... 

So what do you think of this card?  I might send this to my mom for Mother's Day!  She loves these colors & this just might be the perfect card for her!
