Safari Boy Projects

Today I'm showing off my first batch of Best Creation projects. When I received my package, Safari Boy was the first collection I cut into. It was a lot of fun playing with the cute critters and yummy chocolate colours.

It's a Boy :

All the animals on my card are celebrating the fact that my friend Michele is expecting a boy. I framed a combination of fussy-cut and sticker animals with the 'backside' of a die-cut paper. To make the label sticker pop-up I used the Caged Bouquet technique.

Little Monkey :

When I saw this pair of sunglass, I knew it was the perfect candidate for a Safari Boy altered project. I kept the palm trees but ditched that pink flamingo for a monkey and a sentiment sticker. A quick transformation that took just 15 mins. I think Christie's niece Addie will look super cute with them on.

Jungle House :

I love making house-shaped gift boxes. This time I went for a circular one with a cone roof. I must say, this house was the most time-consuming. I must have handcut 100 leaves to make the roof. And experimented before finding the right adhesive so that they all stay put. But I'm pleased with the end result and I hope Jen (who's expecting Baby Evin any day now) does too.
