"Just Slothing Around" Birthday Card by Cassi

On a whim, I added this sloth stamp set (Lawn Fawn's "Hang In There") to my last Scrapbookpal.com order and it is so great! The sloth is really fun to color with Copic markers and makes a nice focal point on a quick and easy card.

To start, die cut a circle on white cardstock using the Lawn Fawn "Stitched Party Banners" set. Then use black ink to stamp the sloth image from "Hang In There". Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink works well for coloring with Copic markers. The Copic colors I used are:

Sloth face - YR000

Sloth body - E13, E35

Tree branch - E33, E37, E59

Next, add a leaf background to a white card base. I used a wood block stamp that I had on hand, but now that the "Tropical Leaves Background" stencil is back in stock I plan to use that next time. Alternatively, the "Toucan Do It" stamp set has some coordinating tropical leaves if you would rather use a stamp.

Now you can adhere the sloth circle onto the card using foam tape for dimension. Lastly, use the "Happy Birthday Line Border" die cut with black cardstock and adhere it to the card base with liquid glue.
