In July I joined a card swap with one of our Stampin’ Up! consultants Jill Olsen. It was a big swap – 35 cards! We had to use a stamp set that was from the new Annual Catalog but not part of the pre sale. I chose the Foxy Friends Stamp set. Below is the card we made. Because we needed so much patterned paper we ended up making our own using the mushrooms out of the Foxy Friends stamp set. It worked out really well! I think on later date we should do a blog post dedicated to making pattern paper with stamp sets!

My Little Foxy Card Swap

when we stamped the fox we punched a 2nd head using the punch and popped it up to give the card some dimension!

We needed a lot of patterned paper for this card so we made our own. Stamping the mushrooms in Smoky Slate, Soft Sky and Calypso Coral.
This is a really super cute stamp set. You can make so many different animals: fox, squirrel, raccoon, skunk, and even a deer! Pinterest is a great place to get ideas on other animal creations.
Happy Stamping!
