Tutorial for otter doily birthday card

January 8, 2022

Today’s tutorial is for an otter doily birthday card. The doily provides a great frame for the cute little otter.

The Awesome Otters stamp set is one of our Sale-a-bration products and is free with a £45 purchase.

This was one of the make and takes at our Paper Dolls team meeting in December. I demonstrated one version stamped with the Awesome Otters stamp set and also showed another version stamped with the Color & Contour set. You can see this version by scrolling down.

In the tutorial below, I take you step by step through creating the otter doily birthday card. I also have a supply list for purchasing anything anything you don’t already own (the order code for the Awesome Otters stamp set is 158087).

Start with an A6 portrait card of Misty Moonlight. Run a card front layer of Pool Party through the Hive 3D embossing folder and mat onto a card front layer of Poppy Parade. Wrap the layers with Pool Party Striped Grosgrain Ribbon (this ribbon has now retired but you could use Pool Party Sheer Ribbon instead). Tie on a knot of the same ribbon, near the base. Adhere the layers direct to the card front.

Using Memento Black ink, stamp a sentiment from the Awesome Otters set onto a large scrap of Basic White card. Stamp the swimming otter below it and die cut out with the circle from the Warm Wraps die set. Colour the otter with the Crumb Cake Blends duo and the water with the Dark Pool Party Blend. Adhere direct to a Heart & Home Doily. Trim away one side of the doily and pop up on the card front, over the ribbon, with dimensionals. Finish with some Iridescent Rhinestones.

On the Basic White insert, using Memento Black ink, stamp another sentiment from the Awesome Otters stamp set. Stamp the standing otter in the lower right corner and stamp the party hat over the top of him. Colour with Crumb Cake Blends duo, Dark Pool Party and Dark Poppy Parade Blends.

This is the version stamped with the Color & Contour stamp set.
