Happy Birthday Card & Video

Hi everyone,

I'm back with a birthday card using the fun images from MFT's Whole Herd.

I started out by water colouring the background with Cracked Pistachio distress ink and stamped the sentiment with Memento Onyx black ink from the same set.



 I then cut a frame using the MFT Inside & Out Diagonal Stitched rectangle dies to cut out the frame and popped it up on foam tape on top of the water coloured background.  I cut out the fence from white card stock and glued it directly to the back panel.



I added some white dots for dimension to the background with the Pico embellisher.  I coloured the cow in with copics and used the die to cut it out and popped it up on foam tape.





We have the Lawn Fawn Pre-Order until August 9th, so head over to make sure you get your hands on the newest Fall/Winter Release.

Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon!

Happy Birthday - Lawn Fawn


Hi everyone,

I'm back with a card that I made for a family member.

I love watching Sandy Allnock when she creates the most stunning backgrounds and thought I would try my hand at it too.  I'm certainly not up there yet but I think it turned out okay and I hope you do too.

I did a lot of masking for this one but it's worth it because you get such great depth with your images. With that I will let the pictures tell the story and the list of supplies will be listed below.






Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon!!!

I love you - Shaker Bookmark

Hi everyone,

I found this bookmark I made a long time ago and I don't think I ever shared it.  

I used one of the Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle dies and I made it longer so that it could be a bookmark.  I stamped the woodgrain background in cotton candy ink from SSS and then used the sentiment from the Love you S'more set and used Memento Onyx black ink.  


I then used the Pretty Pink Posh film strip die and popped it up on foam tape to create a shaker.
I coloured in the monsters from the Lawn Fawn Monster Mash and coloured them in with my copics (R14, R17, R29 R39).  I added in the seed beads which I got from Michaels but you can get these almost anywhere.   To finish it off I took some Lawn Trimmings in Peppermint and added it to the top.

It's your day!


Hi everyone,

I know I've been missing from my blog lately but I will be back in full force soon.  The kitchen renovations are just about done and I will share some pictures when it's all said and done.


I have a card today made with supplies from the June and July SSS Card Kits.

I started with a smooshing technique for the banner die cut panel with Salty Ocean distress ink.  I then cut out the card base with the Lawn Fawn Stitched banners die from the cream card stock from the kit as well as two more from white card stock.  I adhered the cream piece to the base with liquid adhesive and used some thick twine from my stash to fill in the holes on the base.



I then took the square die that comes with the Stitched Duo banner die and cut out a piece of vellum and glued it to the base.  I took some glossy accents and glued the Anchor clip and tied a bow with a piece of twine from May Arts. I cut out the banner from the WPlus9 banner dies and used the sentiment from the June card kit "It's your day" and stamped it with grey in
