SUO Challenges #285
Designing a card for SUO Challenge #285 and the theme Oktoberfest was a difficult one using Stampin’ Up products, but somehow, I made it work using the Jar of Flowers Stamp Set and the Sheep Dies. You would think that it would come easier to someone who is almost 1/3 German, but I must confess I don’t really like beer all that much.
So, “Prost” to all you stampers out there that are up for this challenge. We would love to see your creations so CLICK HERE and enter your card!
Using the colors of the German flag, I stamped the jar image on Bumblebee card stock using memento ink. The handle was made with the swirly stripe image by bending it and placing it on a block. It is easy to do this trick with photopolymer stamps.
Using the Cloud die from the Sheep Dies set, I cut two out of very vanilla card stock for the beer foam. Did you know that you can earn the Sheep Dies for FREE with a $50 purchase now until September 30th!
The leaves were die cut using the Intricate Leaves Dies. The background was made using the Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder. Three stripes resembling the German flag were glued on top of that. This card required a bit of improvisation but worked out well for the challenge!
