Awesome Otters

The new catalogues are set to launch next week! So I thought I’d share a simple card using the Awesome Otters stamp set. This comes from the upcoming Sale-a-bration catalogue, which I know you’re going to love. I have always loved otters, so when I saw this set it immediately jumped to the top of my wishlist! The images are super cute. And they’re great whether you decide to colour them or not.

For this simple card I wanted to show off some of the other great products from the Sale-a-bration catalogue too. So I paired these cute otters with the Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series Paper. The card base is Bermuda Bay for the water of course and the DSP design is Pool Party. I really wanted to show off the paper, so I trimmed down the images into squares.

I stamped the phrase and otters in Early Espresso ink. Then I coloured the otters with the first pack of Watercolour Pencils using Early Espresso and Bermuda Bay. There’s also a little bit of Melon Mambo and Old Olive in there. I wish the Stitched Shapes dies were still around. If they were I totally would have used them for this card. Instead I just made Basic White cardstock squares.

I popped up a couple of the otters with some Stampin’ Dimensionals and just used Stampin’ SEAL for the phrase and other otter. That made it easier to stagger the images so that you could still see most of the stamped images. Then to finish it off I added a few Opal Rounds. There are some Faux Sea Glass shapes that I would have loved to have added from the upcoming new mini catalogue. Those will definitely be on my next order!!

I know I’m going to have a lot of fun crafting with the Awesome Otters stamp set. And I can’t wait for you guys to see what’s in the new catalogues!
