I had so much fun making this card with the NEW Lisa Johnson Designs, Circus Spectacular Stamp and Die-namics. What a fantatic new set and so many fun ways to use it! I thought this MME Kraft Funday, Everyday Fun 6x6 papers would go perfectly with this set to make a lovely vintagey Circus birthday card. I used the NEW Ticket Strip Die-namics and the NEW Double Dots Border Die-namics along with the NEW Circus Spectacular Die-namics

In this detail shot, you can see how when I stamped on the various papers from the, MME Kraft Funday, Everyday Fun paper pad, the different patterns and finishes of the papers, changed the look of the stamped images. The seal appears to be stamped in grey ink but I stamped him in the same black ink as the Elephant but the Kraft paper has a white wash finish to it. I love how the dotted Kraft paper adds a pattern to the stamped Big Top tent which I stamped in black ink. I also used the small harlequin stamp in the set and stamped on one of the pennants from the Mini Wavy Pennants Die-namics.

Here is the inside of my card...another Double Dots Border Die-namics encrusted with red bling and I used several more of the fabulous Stamps and Die-namics from the NEW Circus Spectacular stamp and Die-namics set. 

Thanks SO much for stopping by to have a wee peek at my card! Now, make you way on over to Kim's blog for links to all the MFT Designers with creations to share!

Happy Stampin'!
Hugs,
