Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Ewe Are My Sunshine Card using the Woolly Friends Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! I love that this Bundle comes with a punch for the lamb that you can dress up with a bow or a bell!

The Details of My Ewe Are My Sunshine Card

This card was created for a swap, and I thought an interactive card with an Action Wobble for the head would be fun!

So, I stamped both the head and the body of the ewe in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad and punched them out. You could colour it, but I decided that I wanted the wobble to be the focus. I trimmed down the Mini Action Wobble that I bought on Amazon with my Paper Snips to fit and adhered it to the head.

Next, I stamped in Gray Granite the Basic White background piece all over with the cute little butterfly stamp to add some interest. I went with Gray Granite since it is light and wouldn’t distract from the focal point.

Then, I stamped the tulips in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad, Poppy Parade and Old Olive. The sentiment was heat embossed in white onto a Poppy Parade flag from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

Once the Old Olive Mat and Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper banners were die cut and adhered together, I added a top strip of Poppy Parade that I embossed with the Ladybug Picnic 3D Embossing Folder. To finish off my banner, I added some Linen Thread that I wrapped around twice and tied in a knot.

All that was left was to add the elements to my focal point. I tucked in the stamped tulips behind the die cut circle of the Cute as a Bug DSP making sure to line up the left side with the DSP on the banner. Next, goes the die cut circle off to the right overhanging the banner. I popped up the body of the ewe so that I could tuck in the embossed sentiment. The head with the wobble was added last.

The finishing touch was to add a sweet ladybug epoxy shape to the focal point and two waterdrop epoxy shapes to the Poppy Parade strip near the Linen knot.
