I used the following Blends Alcohol Pens to colour in the image – Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Soft Suede and Evening Evergreen. As we don’t have a Merry Merlot Blends Pen I used the Stamp ‘n Write Marker.

A childs zany bubbles birthday card made using the Zany Zebras stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Zany Bubbles

Oh my goodness I can’t get enough of these cute Zany Zebras and this naughty zebra is surrounded by zany bubbles.

To recreate the zany bubbles card you will need:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Basic Black – 4⅞” by 3⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 4⅝” by 2⅞” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper right corner
Scrap Basic Black and Whisper White

I began by stamping the the adorable zebra onto the smallest panel of Whisper White using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, love him kicking up his heels. I created a mask by stamping the image again on a Post It Note, fussy cutting it out and sticking it over the original stamped image.

Using the smaller bokeh image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set to add the bubbles around the zebra. Colours used were Blushing Bride, Highland Heather, Balmy Blue,Mango Melody and Magenta Madness. I used 1st, 2nd and even 3rd generation stamping to add extra dimension.

I removed the mask and stamped the ‘ground’ image from the Zany Zebra stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink so that the poor zebra isn’t hovering in mid air.

I glued the stamped layer to the Basic Black layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and set it aside.

The sentiment from the Zany Zebras stamp set was stamped in Highland Heather ink onto scrap Whisper White and punched out using the Classic Label Punch. I punched another label from scrap Basic Black and offset it behind the sentiment and added it to the card front with adhesive.
