Just in Case We’ll Walrus Be Friends Cling Stamp Set

It's Just in Case Thursday – the day where Patsy Waggoner (my Border Buddy) and I share a card we've CASED (copy and selectively edit) from one of our current publications. Today's card uses the We'll Walrus Be Friends Cling Stamp Set  from page 82 of the catalogue. The images are so adorable and there are lots of occasions covered off with the sentiments. I used a new product called Shimmery Crystal Effects on the ice – it goes on wet and drys with a little bit of shimmer. It will be available for purchase when the Holiday Catalogue goes live on September 4th.

Sometimes I switch out the stamp set and/or colours on a card.  Here's the original card which used the Label Me Pretty Stamp Set from page 19 of the Annual Catalogue. I used it as a sketch for my card.

 

Measurements:

• Balmy Blue – 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"
