What a “Wonderful” collection! 🙂 I loved playing with the newly-realeased Wild and Wonderful set! I keep thinking of more and more ideas with every card I create!
The three cards below, you’ll notice that I used just a single sheet of stamps (plus one extra sentiment), creating three different looks. I used inks from the Life of the Party Collection plus the NEW Grape Crush and Limoncello.
First, I arranged all the sentiments from A Note Of Thanks Stamp Set (plus the Thank You stamp from Leaf Motifs), face-down on my pre-cut card panel in the exact placement that I wanted. Then a brought down a large acrylic block to pick them all up. Ta da! Now the block is ready to use on several cards (or more).
On card number one, below, I white-heat-embossed the sentiments on to Midnight cardstock. On a separate, white cardstock, I blended a blob of Party Dress Ink and another blob of Limoncello Ink. I die-cut these blobs of color with the Scroll Butterfly and In Flight Dies, layered one butterfly on top of the other and adhered them, off-kilter, on the black embossed panel. I added a few rhinestones, just because I like sparkly things 🙂
One card two, I blended a rainbow of inks on to white cardstock and stamped the block of sentiments with Midnight Ink.
Card number three is a fast, easy and fun card! I just stamped the block with Midnight Ink, added a few, colorful flowers from the same A Note of Thanks Stamp Set and tied it up with a length of black and white twine. On cards two and three, you will notice that I like using a black layer of cardstock to frame my “artwork.”
Thanks so much for hanging out with all of us today! Everything in the NEW Wild and Wonderful Collection release, including items I used above, is listed at the bottom of this post.

Thank you, Susan 🙂
Such an awesome idea of using this background stamp set. Will have to try this when I put in my order. Your cards are so pretty, thank you for sharing.
Thank you 🙂
Good day I am so grateful I found your website, I really found you by
error, while I was looking on Google for something
else, Nonetheless I am here now and would just like to say thanks a lot
for a remarkable post and a all round thrilling blog (I also
love the theme/design), I don’t have time to go through it all
at the moment but I have book-marked it and also included your RSS feeds, so when I have time
I will be back to read a lot more, Please do
keep up the fantastic job.
I’ve been surfing online more than 2 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article
like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion,
if all site owners and bloggers made good content as
you did, the net will be much more useful than ever before.
What a great idea! Thank you for inspiring me – I’m going to try this!
