"BACK ON YOUR FEET"

Stampin' Up!'s Back on Your Feet stamp set has three cute animal images, but the sloth is my favorite.  I guess he's moving even slower with that injury.

Making this card began by lightly sponging Pool Party ink in the center of the cardstock.  The sloth image was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then colored with markers.  The edges of the Basic Black cardstock mat were distressed, and then I adhered the stamped cardstock to it.  You can see a little of the embossing on the Pool Party cardstock layer.  I used the Woodland embossing for that.  The sentiment was stamped onto Magenta Madness cardstock and was cut with a retired punch.  Before the Pool Party layer was adhered to the front of the card, the (newly retired) Whisper White Baker's Twine was wrapped around it and tied in a bow.  Now I ask you . . . WHY did Stampin' Up! retire the Baker's Twine?  Did I use it so much that it was difficult for them to keep it in stock? 

I enjoyed making this card for a very sweet lady and hope that it put a smile on her face.
