More Dino Days!

Yes, it’s more Dino Days and today I’m featuring a card from this month’s class.  The card features the Dino Days Bundle which includes the Dino Days stamp set and coordinating Dino Dies. In addition, the Dinoroar Designer Series Paper provides the perfect background.  The Pteradyctal, with it’s wingspread, goes perfectly with the sentiment.  I have had great fun creating projects with this bundle and can assure you, I will be posting more Dino projects in the future!

Dino Days Pterodactyl Card

Card Details:
  1. Create card base using Pretty Peacock cardstock (4-1/4″ x 11″, score at 5-1/2″).  Card is an oblong, right side opening card.
  2. Layer a 5-1/4″ x 4″ piece of Dinoroar Designer Series Paper onto the card base.
  3. Cut Lovely Lipstick cardstock layer: 2-3/4″ x 4-1/4″.
  4. Use the Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut Whisper White cardstock (select rectangle die to cut Whisper White so that piece will fit inside of the Lovely Lipstick layer).
  5. Stamp the tree trunk with Pretty Peacock Classic Stampin’ Pad.  Add the palm fronds, stamping with Old Olive Classic Stampin’ Pad.  TIP: Stamp once, then stamp again before re-inking the stamp.
  6. Stamp background circles onto the Whisper White using Pineapple Punch. 
  7. With Lovely Lipstick Classic Stampin’ Pad, stamp the sentiment onto the lower portion of the Whisper White cardstock piece.  Add to the Lovely Lipstick cardstock layer using snail adhesive.
  8. On a scrap of Whisper White cardstock, stamp the Pterodactyl using Mango Melody Classic Stampin’ Pad – first, stamp off onto another piece of paper, then stamp again.  Stamp the wing design using the Mango Melody ink without stamping off.  Cut using the coordinating Dino Die.  Add to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  9. Cut a 3′ piece of the Old Olive/Pretty Peacock Reversible Ribbon.  Fold in half and attach to the lower left side of the Lovely Lipstick layer using adhesive.
  10. Add completed sentiment layer to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Hope I have convinced you to use the Dino Days Bundle to create some fun cards for your dinosaur lover!

Highlighting Dino Days

In today’s post, I am sharing a fun set of note cards highlighting the Dino Days Bundle.  In addition, the Scalloped Note Cards are featured. Not only are the note cards lots of fun to create, they are fun and playful looking.  The Dino Days Bundle includes the Dino Days Stamp Set and Dino Dies.  The Dino Days Bundle is included in the Dinoroar Suite Bundle along with the Dinoroar Designer Series Paper, 3/8″ Denim Ribbon and Dinoroar Enamel Shapes.  When starting to design the project, I first looked at the Dinoroar Designer Series Paper and used it as my color inspiration.  It was then when I realized that the designer series paper would coordinate beautifully with the Scalloped Note Cards.  If you’ve noticed in past posts, I am a huge fan of note cards.  Now with the Scalloped Note Cards, I have more creation options.  

Dino Days

Aren’t the dinosaurs cute?  I’ll let you in on a secret!  All of the dinosaurs used on the note cards were cut from the Dinoroar Designer Series Paper.  And no fussy cutting was required!  The Dino Dies matches perfectly with dinosaur images on some of the designer series paper.  

Here’s a tip for you when cutting the dinosaurs with spikes on their backs.  There are two separate dies, one for the dinosaur body and one for the spikes.  First cut the dinosaur body with the coordinating die.  After cutting, you will notice that the spike will not have enough paper for you to attach it to the dinosaur.  Therefore, adhere the spike to a scrap of whisper white cardstock and then cut it with the spike die.  This will provide you with enough paper to attach to the dinosaur.
