Hi Stamping Friends!
Today, I have another pair of cute Counting Sheep swap cards to share with you, each made with a cool Z-Fold style card base.
LIVE Class Rescheduled To Saturday—This week's LIVE Class has been rescheduled to Saturday at 10am, because our air conditioner went out and we'll be having a complete HVAC unit installed on Thursday and possibly Friday. My stamping studio is literally right outside the furnace area, so everything has to be put on hold. You won't want to miss it! I'll be unveiling the first kit for my Countdown To Christmas series!

Counting Sheep Birthday Celebration Card
Laura Borchert created this fun Counting Sheep Z-Fold card that looks like a fun sheep celebration! The Counting Sheep stamp set and coordinating Sheep Dies make it so easy to assemble! Remember you can get either the stamp set or dies for FREE with a $50 order, or get them both for FREE with a $100 order during the Sale-a-Bration promotion thru September 30.
Background Basics—Laura started with an 11" x 4-1/4" card base in Pacific Point cardstock, scored at the 2-3/4" and 5-1/2" marks. She decorated the front panel by stamping the Counting Sheep grass image in Granny Apple Green ink all over a 2-1/4" x 3-3/4" piece of Granny Apple Green cardstock. She mounted that onto a 2-1/2" x 4" piece of Basic White, then adhered it to the front panel.
Sweet Sheep—Laura stamped the Counting Sheep image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Basic White cardstock, then colored it in with some Stampin' Blends Markers in Ivory and Smoky Slate. She also stamped the party hat in Memento Black and colored those dots in with Real Red Blends. Both images are die-cut with the Sheep Dies. The hat is adhered with SEAL Adhesive and the sheep is popped up with Dimensionals.
Sweet Sentiment—Laura stamped the Counting Sheep greeting in Memento Black onto Basic White, then punched it out with the Double Oval Punch. She also punched a scalloped oval shape from Pacific Point cardstock using the same punch. The oval was adhered to the front panel with SEAL Adhesive.
Inside The Card—The inside of the card, which shows on the outside, was decorated with another whimsical image from the Counting Sheep stamp set. It's also stamped in Memento Black and colored with Ivory and Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends. Laura finshed up by die-cutting a Real Red balloon with the help of the Sheep Dies, then popping that up with Dimensionals. She finished by adding a few Matte Black Dots. So fun!
Counting Sheep You're Amazing Card
Julie Davison created this sweet & simple encouragement card using the Counting Sheep stamp set and a modified Z-Fold.
Background Basics—Julie's card begins with an 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" piece of Polished Pink cardstock, scored at 1-3/4" and 4-1/4" and folded into a Z shape. She decorated the front panel with a 1-1/2" x 5-1/4" piece of the Pattern Party host exclusive Designer Series Paper Pack.
Sweet Sheep—Next, Julie stamped the Counting Sheep image in Memento Black ink onto a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" piece of Basic White cardstock. Like the card above, she colored in the sheep with the Ivory and Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends Markers. She also stamped the party had in Memento Black onto scrap Basic White, colored it in with Polished Pink Light and Dark markers. It's die-cut and adhered with SEAL. The stamped layer is matted onto a 2-3/4" piece of Basic Black, then adhered to the front card flap. So darling!
On The Inside—Julie stamped a Counting Sheep sentiment on the outer edge that shows through to the front when the card is closed. She also added another coordinating sentiment, along with some grass images, that you can see once you pull the card open. Lovely!
