2015 Catalogue Countdown Walk in the Wildmeets Gorgeous Grunge

Good Afternoon to you all

As you will no doubt know by now, Stampin Up! has published the 2015 Retiring List of Rubber Stamps, Dies, Ink Pads, Cardstock, Stampin Write Markers, Bakers Twine, Dies, Embossing Folders,  .... and so the list goes on

So from today until 1 June 2015 I will be posting daily with products that are available for up to 50% savings on the retail price. So now is the time to stock up on supplies and favourites from the current Annual Catalogue.

My daily posts will consist of a combination of Stampin Up! Technique Videos (I intend this to be weekly) , cards, and 3D projects
To browse or order any of the items on the retiring list, simply visit my online store by clicking on the retiring banner below


Before we start, just have a peek at this really quick video from Stampin Up! See if you can spy a project using today's Stamp Set ... Walk in the Wild


Now, I had made this card prior to the retiring list being published, and for some bizarre reason, I felt like I already knew which items would be leaving us this year ... weird!

I will be very sad to see Walk in the Wild stamp set leave the catalogue this year as it is one of my favourites and perfect for men and women when making cards or scrapbook pages

Many of the Classic Ink Pads I have used today are also in the Retiring List promotion. as is the 
Four You sentiment Stamp Set


I stamped my trimmed to size Whisper White Cardstock first with the fine splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge Stamp Set using Coastal Cabana  Classic Ink Pad, this was over-stamped with the leaf stamp from Summer Silhouettes Stamp Set, using Pistachio Pudding Classic Ink Pad. and once with Crumb Cake Classic Ink Pad.

Next I stamped the Stag using Baked Brown Sugar Classic Ink Pad, and finally, I over-stamped the sentiment using Chocolate Chip Classic Ink Pad.
Lastly, I used the Old Olive Stampin Write Marker to add some green around the stags hooves using the Brush tip ... make sure you use a very gentle touch ... I worked with dots of colour so I had more control.

With today's card, I simply mat (layered) it onto a slightly larger piece of Whisper White Cardstock using Stampin Dimensionals, and then mounted the card front onto a White A6 Card Blank.

And there you have it, a masculine card in a flash!
