Hello! Come and see what I made using the Wild Bunch stamp set, the June Product of the Month. I hope you have seen some amazing ideas from our previous blog hop participants. The Wild Bunch is a cute and fun set to create with and I have enjoyed playing with it. The fact you can get it for $9 when you place a Stampin’ Up! order for $125 (Aust) is too good to miss out on!
The images in this set are ones I like to create clean and simple style cards with. I love this card style!
Yes you do need to do some fussy cutting in order to raise the images on Dimensionals. The focus you require for fussy cutting is actually good for your mental well being and motor coordination in case you didn’t know that fun fact! I coloured the stamped images using Stampin’ Blends. The scribble background is one of the Wild Bunch stamps. It makes a great background when lined up across the card front.
The Wild Bunch set comes with several versatile greetings, something we always want in our favourite stamp sets! Add your fussy cut image to a set of layered die cuts or add it alone to your card front. Either option looks really good! I’ve used the Stylish Shapes die set here.
A favourite way to create this card style with a solo image is to add a touch of colour to the area behind the image by adding ink with a blending brush. See how it makes the image pop off the page.
This is great card style to create cards fairly quickly, depending on how fast you colour and fussy cut!!!
I had a grand child’s birthday coming up when the Wild Bunch arrived in my order, so the first card I made was this birthday card. The frame for the greeting and the greeting itself were done using the Exciting Times Bundle that consists of stamp set and rectangle punch. There are three useful greetings in the stamp set and I can see a lot of use ahead for it in my cardmaking.
If you enjoy making cute cards or have a requirement for lots of children’s cards the Wild Bunch is a terrific stamp set to add to your collection!
This last card I wasn’t going to show you, however when you go online and look at the cards created by Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators, they are always so perfect! I wanted to show you we do have failures and this card is an example. I had a concept of what I wanted but it just didn’t work out right. So for every gorgeous card you see, they do come about by trial and error, like my card below!!!! If you can suggest an improvement please make a comment below! It’s been an age since I made a slim line card, so it was a disappointment to not get it looking right. The coloured papers are from the Splash of Sparkles Specialty DSP.
Have I convinced you to get this oh so cute stamp set? Remember it is only $9(Aust) with a $125 (Aust) order and it is only available while stock lasts. If you already have it I hope you enjoyed my ideas today. Please go on and check out everyone else’s ideas for the Wild Bunch Product of the Month.
