Yes, I’ve been playing with the Jolly Hat Builder punch again. It’s rather addictive. I know that my sister Caro has even punched one out and put on a photograph! I thought that I’d try a few of the other hat stamps in Jolly Friends as an excuse for more hats… 🙂
So my moose is stamped in soft suede again. This time the hat is the stripy rather Dr Seuss looking one and the brim and bobble are in silver glimmer paper. This is when I regret not having the red glimmer paper. Yet. I popped the bobble up on a teeny piece of dimensionals for some fun.
I’m finding that the brim of the hat can go either way up – I think that the stamp set implies it’s the other way than I’ve done it here, but this works too.
The sentiment is actually the name of the set, Merriest Wishes and that’s in real red too. I used a skinny mat of soft suede to echo the moose but that meant that I had a nice wider real red border from the card base. There are a few more different hat stamps to go, but since my Paper Pumpkin arrived at the post office in the wee hours, I’m expecting it today. So there will likely be a Paper Pumpkin related post tomorrow. It looks like a fun kit – I’ve already seen the video.
