Great News Panda featuring La-La Land Crafts

Hi! Welcome (or welcome back!) to my blog! I'm happy you're here because I'm sharing a really fun card that features the Great News stamp set by La-La Land Crafts. This was a limited time stamp set for their December 2018 club kit. These adorable little pandas are playing the Telephone game (remember that from grade school?!), and they're really excited to find out that a friend of mine is expecting her first baby! So, although a little nontraditional as a "Congrats, baby!" card, I think she's really gonna like it!

You can watch the card process video below or in full HD on my YouTube channel:

There was so much masking for this card! But it was totally worth it! I used Inkadinkado masking paper and full adhesive sticky notes (they are post it notes with adhesive all along the back). Very handy!

I did super simple Copic coloring for these little bears, and since pandas are mostly white - there wasn't much coloring to do anyway!

The real work went into the background! I used the Grassy Hills die by My Favorite Things. I used it to cut a mask from the masking paper and applied Tim Holtz Distress Ink with an ink blending tool to create the background.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog! I love that I could use this stamp set for almost any occassion. And since it's so cute, I definitely will be using it again. I hope you have a great rest of your day, and if we're not already connected on Instagram, then hop on over because I share lots of pictures of my projects over there!  Bye!
