Stamp and fussy cut your squirrel.

I used dimensionals to adhere the squirrel and give the card a bit of dimension. The other pieces were adhered with liquid adhesive.

Stand-Up Birthday

If you need a birthday card in minutes grab for the Sale-A-Bration stamp set: The Gang's All Meer. This adorable stamp set can only be earned with a $50 qualifying purchase. Click on Shop Now above for more details. Here is the clean and simple or quick and easy card:



Stamps:
   The Gang's All Meer

Paper:
   Balmy Blue A-2
   Whisper White 5 1/4 x 4

Ink:
   Archival Basic Black

Watercolor Pencils:
   Early Espresso
   Basic Gray
   Balmy Blue
   Crushed Curry
   Whisper White

Technique:
   Watercolor Pencils

Accessories:
   Subtle Blue Brads, Blender Pen, Adhesive

These meerkats are adorable and line up easily. You can use a Stamparatus, Stamp-a-ma-jig, or MISTI for exact placement. 

I used 3 stamps from the stamp set: the meerkat peeking up from its burrow, the single meerkat (I stamped him twice, one on top of the other), and the sentiment.

I then colored in the images and blended the color with my blender pen. 

Lastly, I added the three brads on the bottom right and adhered the panel to the card front using my liquid adhesive.
