My card I created using the Jungle Pals Stamp Set and coordinating Jungle Pals Dies from Stampin’ Up!® Jan-Feb Sale-A-Bration Catalogue. The style of card is a floating card, it gives the illusion that the leaves are floating above the card base.

Instructions-

- Adhere Adhesive Sheets to the back of Basic White strips. TIP: Adhesive Sheets have 3 sections on the sheet approx 5cm wide and is a little longer than cardstock – one section for each strip.
- Die cut approx 15 leaves
- Using Blending Brush and Garden Green Ink, lightly brush around the edges leaving some white in the center of the leaves.
- Window sheet
- Adhere the leaves to the window sheet radiating out from one point. This is where my crocodile will be places
- Take leaves to the outer edges of the window sheet and trim off any over hang. These can then be used to fill in any spaces.
- Using the Deckled Rectangle Dies (size used – 8.5 x 12cm, 3 ⅜ x 4⅝”), die cut the window sheet and leaves. TIP: You may need to run though a few times or even add a shim to make sure it is cut through.
- Place Mini Dimensionals onto the back of the window sheet, hiding them behind the leaves
- Attach window sheet to the card base.
- Crocodile
- Stamped using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad and coloured with Watercolour Pencils and Stampin’ Blend Color Lifter
- Add dimensionals to crocodile and attach where leaves radiate from.
- Sentiment – outside and inside.
- ‘Hey, There’ from Charming Sentiments stamped in Melon Mambo and punched out using the Bee Builder Punch as a speech bubble (great idea from Julie, while watching my Live)
- Using Multi Purpose Glue adhere the speech bubble to card.
- Also stamp ‘What’s New!’ on the bottom right corner of the Basic White Card Insert.
- Card Insert
- Adhere to the inside of the card Base.
- Classic Matte Dots – colour using Stampin’ Blends Melon Mambo and adhere to the card.
