Have you seen the Whale of a Time Suite in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog yet?  If not, you need to check it out.  The Whale Done Bundle and the coordinating Whale of a Time Designer Series Paper are part of the suite and make creating cards easy.  The designer series paper with it’s vibrant colors provides a beautiful background to complement stamped images.  But wait, you can also use the coordinating punch to cut a whale from the designer series paper.  If you look closely at my card below, you’ll see the whale is not a stamped image.  Whale Done Bundle

Whale Done Bundle Card Details:
  • Cut a card base 5-1/2″ x 11″ from Balmy Blue cardstock.  Score at 4-1/4″ and fold.
  • For the first layer, use Shaded Spruce cardstock cut 5-3/8″ x 4-1/8″ and attach to the front of the card base.
  • From the Whale of a Time Designer Series Paper, select desired background design and cut 4″ x 5-1/4″.  Attach to the shaded spruce layer on the card.
  • Using the whale pattern of the designer series paper, cut a large whale with the coordinating Whale Builder Punch. 
  • Cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Stitched Nested Labels Dies. 
  • Then, stamp the sentiment from the Whale Done Stamp Set onto the Whisper White label using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad.  TIP: position ithe sentiment on the left side of the label so whale can overhang label.
  • Attach label to the front of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Next, add the whale using a Mini Glue Dot on the head area and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals on the tail section. 
  • To complete the card front, embellish by adding Artistry Blooms Adhesive Backed Sequins.
