Today I'm sharing with you how Wonderful the Awesome Otters Sale-a-bration stamp set by Stampin' UP! is! This is a FREE item until February 28th (or while supplies last) when you place a $50 order! 

I used lots of texture and dimensionals for this card. I used the Bark 3D Embossing Folder for the background and the new Hive 3D Embossing Folder for the up close piece. 

I was inspired by an Handmade by Heather pin where she used this layout but she used colored pencils instead of the Stampin' Blends. I really like the bright, crisp colors you can create with the Blends. 

Be sure to stamp the inside to carry out this cute pun "you are otterly awesome!"

You can make this card too when you order the supplies from me and reach $50 worth in products.
