LAYERS OF SWEETNESS

Are you on cuteness overload yet?  If not, today's card just might do it.


This is another FUN FOLD called the 3 Layer Fun Fold.  The retiring Sweet & Precious stamp set has 3 of the cutest images, so since this card had 3 layers, I thought I would put one image on each layer.


It is difficult to choose which image is the cutest so with this fun fold I can use all three and I don't have to choose!

Since each image looks like a Momma and her baby, I thought I would turn this fun fold into a baby card.  

Each image was stamped on Basic White with Black Memento ink  I used Watercolor Pencils to add a little color to each image.  After laying down the color, I used a Blender Pen to smooth it out and add a little shading.


The image on the top layer is the Sloths.  This sentiment is from Sweet & Precious.


The giraffes are on the 2nd layer and the Penguins are on the 3rd layer.  The sentiments on these two layers are from an old retired (Wildly Adorable) baby stamp set that I have.

On the giraffe layer the right edge was covered with an Old Olive piece of cardstock embossed with the Fern 3D embossing folder.  The edge of the Old Olive was torn and then layered on to a piece of Basic White -- which also had a torn edge.  This was done so that when the card was completely closed the Penguins were not partially visible.

When the fun fold is fully open this is what you see.


Aren't these images truly Sweet & Precious?  Do you have a favorite?  I can't decide which is my favorite, but I do know that I am now officially on CUTENESS OVERLOAD!

This is another fun fold that does not provide much space to write a personal note.  So, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the back of the Penguin panel.

The Sweet & Precious stamp set includes this little bunch of leaves. I stamped it in two diagonal corners and colored them with my Water Pencil like I had done with the other images.  There is still plenty of room to sign my name and write a short note.

I'd love to know what you think of today's card.

Again, the Sweet & Precious Stamp Set is on the Last Chance List, so if you want it, don't wait too long or it may be sold out.
