SSS: Wrap It Up

Quick post to share a card I made using the Simon Says Stamp :Wrap It Up Challenge for my inspiration. I went to Hobby Lobby today to get some birthday paper and the light bulb went off.  I could literally wrap it up with the birthday paper.
 
The top panel is b-day paper over a piece of self-adhesive cork for dimension and ease.
I added ribbon  and a handmade tag to complete the gift look.

 
Quick, easy and coordinates with the gift!


 
This would be cute with holiday paper too!
Thanks for visiting,

CTS145: Super Hero Power

Inspired by the CAS(E) Sketch #145 this weekend.
I used the idea of the stacked sentiments with the main element to the right.

 
 
Here's my take on the sketch.
Mama Elephant Tiny Heroes set with a Fiskars set.
The hero was stamped, cut out and colored and placed on a white embossed stamped image and adhered with a wobble spring!
FUN!  Check out the wobble action on my Instagram account @kelbertram
 
 

I colored the letter with Copics. 
I added Glossy Accents to the hero's accessories.

 I don't "watercolor" and mist much at all.
Nice to use that watercolor paper I bought MONTHS ago.
Very happy how this one turned out.
