Trio of cards by Paula Cannon with the Wild & Sweet stamp set by Stampin' Up!

The Wild & Sweet Stamp Set is Sweet

The Wild & Sweet stamp set is indeed a sweet set! It had me at the koala bear, and pandas are popular, but … a raccoon? They seem to have a reputation as pesky critters, although I’ve never personally had any run-ins with them. So, unless you have a friend named Rocky, what are you going to do with a raccoon card? And then I colored one for a sample card, and he has such a sweet face!

I’ve made several cards with this new stamp set, and I’ve used Stampin’ Blends, Watercolor Pencils, and watercolor with inks. They all work great, so if you like to color, you may need the Wild & Sweet stamp set.

I was making a display board with Brusho samples for my catalog launch party and I wanted at least one new card. I have a stash of background papers using various Brusho techniques. When I saw this one I immediately thought “purple daisies!”
