Baby Window Card

Today I'm sharing a simple window card over at the Lawn Fawn blog. 

I used the new Hello Baby stamp set, Peace Joy Love set, and the new Louie's ABC's to create the card. 

You can check out the video on the Lawn Fawn Channel or view it below.

Clean and Simple Thanks

Well where has the time gone?  It's the beginning of June already!  With the summer approaching, I thought I'd use a few of the new Lawn Fawn products from their latest release and create a card inspired by summer sunsets: 

It's a pretty simple card.  I just masked the card base with post-it notes and used Scattered Straw distress ink to create a gradient of yellow across the card.  It's hard to see, but I used a few of the filler stamps in Hello Baby to add some texture to the yellow line by stamping them in the same color of distress ink.  I then used a few of the "scene-setting" stamps and stamped them in a nice, crisp black ink. 

I finished the card by die cutting the "thanks" die from black and white cardstock. I thought it would tie together the black from the plants and the white from the card base. 

Thanks so much for stopping by :)

Starry Sky Video

Hello my long, lost friends! 

I'm (finally) back today to share a video using embossing powders in a non-traditional way.  You can see the full post over at the Lawn Fawn blog today. 

Here's the card I created: 

And here's the video tutorial: 

I used the Starry Backdrops set, Birthday Tags set + coordinating dies, and some white and silver Lawn Trimmings. 

Hope you enjoyed :) Thanks for stopping by!

Lawnscaping March Blog Hop

The Lawnscaping Facebook Inspiration girls are hosting a color-themed blog hop today!  Spectrum Noir has generously donated 2 packs of markers for a lucky commenter to win!  The color packs are green and yellow, so that's our hop theme! 

You should have arrived here by way of Sabine's awesome blog! 

Here's my card using the color inspiration: 

I love, love, love Penelope's Blossoms.  It's such a pretty set!  I stamped the large flower bunch image in a light gray ink and then stamped over with yellow and green inks.  I added some shading with colored pencils to give the card a bit of depth.  I then used the Scripty Hello die, which was cut out of green cardstock, and heat embossed it with clear sparkle embossing powder: 

And one last photo: 

I hope you'll hop along!  The girls are sure to have some awesome projects to share!  Be sure to leave comments along the way for the chance to win these awesome markers!

Cheerful Happy Birthday

I'm over at the Lawnscaping blog today sharing a bright and cheerful happy birthday card in the theme of our current challenge: clean and simple. 

Here's a sneak:

I hope you'll go check it out! 

And as a side note, I know it's been quiet around here lately.  I've started a new job as a nurse practitioner, so my craft time has definitely taken a hit.  Hopefully I'll be able to find a better work/life balance soon so I can get back to making cards and visiting all of your fabulous blogs!  

As always, thanks for stopping by :)

Lawnscaping Challenge #77: Bling It

It's the first Monday in March, so it's time for another Lawnscaping challenge!  This time we're encouraging you to use sparkle and shine to make your project stand out! 

Here's my card: 

I use several of the new Lawn Fawn sets: Hello Sunshine, Scripty Hello die, and the Spring Showers dies.  For sparkle, I added lots of clear glitter to the sun, clouds, and hello:

I finished the card by mounting it on some yellow polka dot paper from the Let's Polka paper pack. 

I hope you'll play along with us!  Our sponsor is Simon Says Stamp, who will be giving away a $25 gift certificate! 

 

Thanks for stopping by!
