My Covid take on a Slimline Card

I wanted to play with the MFT Zippy Zebras set I just got so I pulled out some older sets with animals in them and peeked them out the windows. Sets from MFT Avery Elle W+9 and more paper from Tonic Studios and Altenew. Hello die with speech bubble from Poppy Stamps. Slimline dies from Trinity Stamps. The point here is to shop your stash and put something together.

Well happy Sunday.

Tomorrow is my sister’s birthday. About 6 months ago she asked me for an outhouse she could hang on her bathroom door to indicate it is occupied. (no lock) I finally made it. The art was all Cricut. I really did not change it much. I ran some craft cardstock through my die cutting machine with a woodgrain embossing folder. Inked with some different brown inks to give texture. For the outhouse. The skunk was plain black and white cardstock. I put it through a laminator so it could be wiped down and could hang it. Hung with a piece of ribbon… Glue dropped at the holes to hold the flowers. Turned out cute, don’t you think?
