Time to Get Crafty with the Zany Zoo Stamp Set
Time to Get Crafty with the Zany Zoo Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! Imagine bringing to life a twirling cheetah, an alligator with a love for cycling, and a tortoise that serenades with its voice. With these enchanting stamps, you’re not just creating crafts; you’re crafting stories and smiles for your loved ones.
I wanted to keep this card super simple so I went with a unique color combination that would highlight the Llama’s ball of yard – Gray Granite, Moody Mauve, and Bubble Bath. If you’d prefer something brighter, make sure you check out my Color Combination Library for ideas.
It’s easy to celebrate the uniqueness of those around you by creating heartfelt cards, personalized gift tags, and so much more. The open line-art style invites you to add your personal touch with vibrant colors and techniques that speak to you. Plus, with three specially crafted sentiments, you’re all set to make any birthday, talent showcase, or special moment truly unforgettable. Let’s make every creation a celebration with the Zany Zoo Stamp Set!
