IM84 – Over the Moon

August 12, 2019 By Connie | Leave a Comment

Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge! LOVE this whimsical cow cookie jar! And, of course, Stampin’ Up!’s Over the Moon stamp set is just PERFECT for it, right?

And, I had to get some of the yellow color in there…what about a sun? lol! This card just makes me smile!

Stampin’ Details:

- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Blueberry Bushel cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- On the 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White cardstock, a 3/4 x 5-1/4 strip of In Color DSP was added to the right side.
- I used the grass from the Wiggle Bugs Die to cut the grass from Call Me Clover cardstock and added it to the bottom of the Whisper White.
- The sun was punched from Pineapple Punch cardstock with the 1-1/2 Circle Punch.
- The cow from Over the Moon was stamped on scrap Whisper White cardstock with Memento Black Ink, then colored with Petal Pink and Dark Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends. It was hand-cut and added to the grass with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Over the Moon was stamped with Memento Black Ink.
- A trio of Happiness Blooms blue dots were added in the background for a little bling!

CCMC567 – Over the Moon

It’s Thursday and another Create with Connie and Mary color challenge is up this week! Nice and bright for summer!

I used the cute, new, whimsical set, Over the Moon! Now…normally I’m not a “cow” person, but I love the expressions on these images!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Whisper White, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
The Calypso Coral was cut from the second largest Stitched Rectangle Die. It was stamped in the corners with the Waterfront speckle stamp and Calypso Coral Ink.
The greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink in the lower right corner of the Calypso Coral.
A 1-1/2 x 4-1/4 piece of Granny Apple Green was embossed with the Layered Leaves Embossing Folder and added to the front.
A 1/4 x 4-1/4 strip of Basic Black cardstock was added on top.
The cow was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Whisper White cardstock, then cut with the 2-1/8 x 3-5/8 Stitched Rectangle Die. It is colored with Light Basic Black, Dark Poppy Parade, Light Calypso Coral, Dark Petal Pink, and Granny Apple Green. The grass was stamped with Granny Apple Green.
That was layered onto a 2-/8 x 3-3/4 piece of Poppy Parade cardstock, then popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Isn’t that fun? I love how it turned out! OK…check out the rest of the Challenge Team to see what they did with the color challenge this week over on Create with Connie and Mary!
