AAA Cards Game #50 - CAS Halloween

Hello everyone,

We are back for another game and it's all about CAS Halloween.

Now on to my card.

If you follow me for either as short or long time, you'll know that I am a big lover of Lawn Fawn.  It's one of the first stamp companies I started out card making with and they are still top of my list 5 years later.

I used the LF Trick or Treat stamp set and did some masking on the candy corn.  I then coloured them in with my copics and added some little white dots for interest.  

I cut out all the panels with the MTF stitched rectangle dies and I used Lawn Fawn patterned paper as well a chocolate and white card stock.

I used a newly acquired Lifestyle Crafts embossing folder and it's like a chevron brick pattern and I just love it. 

I finished off the card with some sequins from Lucy Abrahm and Lawn Fawn.

Don't forget to add your creating to the linky!  Can't wait to see what you make.  

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

Christmas Gift Card Holders

Hi everyone!

I have a few gift card holders for you today.  I was inspired by Debby Hughes as well as Laura Bassen with their gift card holders.  

This is the one Debby Hughes had up on her blog here, and I used the SSS Stitched rectangle dies to cut to the patterned paper.  I cut out two pieces, one for the top and one for the bottom.  I used the LF Joy to the Woods set and heat embossed it with Hero Arts white embossing powder.  I use the LF Stitched Hillside Borders dies to cut out the snowy slope.

I used 1/4 in double sided tape to adhere the sides so the gift card can slip in and be a bit snug so it doesn't fall out.  

 Then I used LF Peppermint Lawn trimmings  to keep the holder closed.  The great thing is you can make these for any occasion you want.

Here's another one I did with more Christmas patterned paper and Maya Road twine.

This was inspired by Laura Bassen's gift card holder and this is a card that opens and the gift card holder is on the inside panel.  I used Recollections 110# white card stock and LF Deck the Halls stamp and die set.  I used SSS Olive and Chocolate dye inks to stamp the images and sentiment.

Here is another one I used the LF patterned paper (which almost broke my heart to use as this is the one thing I hoard is LF paper).

Thanks for stopping by!

See you again soon.

Hello Baby - Card

Hello everyone,

Today I have a baby card to share.

I used a couple of Lawn Fawn sets.  An oldie but a goodie and a newer one.

For the patterned paper, I used an old pad chic which was baby themed but it's so old I can't remember what the name of it was.  I also used the Mama Elephant Femme Frames, Mama Elephant Landscape Trio Creative Cuts dies for the clouds, Lawn Fawn's Grassy border die for the grass.

I combined the two stamp sets as well as Pretty Pink Posh crystal clear
6mm sequins and MME white enamel dots that came in one of the SSSCK.

I used my copics to do the colouring and a Gelly Roll white gel pen to add in the little dots on the bunnies.

All the supplies shown were purchased through Simon Says Stamp except the copics, which were purchased my my local art store and Michaels.

Lawnscaping Challenge #91 - Patterned Paper

Hello Everyone!

Today I have a card to share for the Lawnscaping Challenge.

I used the new stamp set from Lawn Fawn for Simon Says Stamp.  Unfortunately it is now sold out as it was on while supplies last during the SSS Stamptember event.  I love the images in this set and the sentiments.

I will admit that there are a couple of boo-boos on this card.  I don't know about you but I am forever putting my baby wipe down on my desk and it get either on top of or beside my projects or partial cards I'm working on and ruins them.  This card is no different but with the help of the Online Card Class - Copics for Card makers they had tips and tricks to hide mistakes.

The first one is the sentiment which I used Momento Onyx Black ink to stamp it.  I got so caught up in putting the card together, I forgot to stamp my sentiment.  Needless to say it didn't stamp out as it was popped up on foam adhesive.  I got to thinking and decided to stamp it again on card stock and fussy cut it out and then pop it up.
 

Number two was the baby wipe issue.  in the top right corner got wet and the ink started to bleed.  This is the reason for the leaves being popped up on the edge.  So I popped up a few of the leaves around the border.

I used the Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Duos 2 rectangle die for the panel and then just added another piece of card stock behind it and coloured the edges with a Copic marker to match the colours on the leaves and enamel dots from My Minds Eye that came in my SSSCK (unfortunately I no longer remember from which one)

Monster Birthday Card and Birthday Wishes Card

Hello everyone.

Today I am sharing a couple of cards I did this week.

For the first card I used one of the free Digi stamps from Create a Smile.  This is a brand-new stamp company and she is going to release her first stamp set very shortly.  I was going to try out for the design team didn't get my card up in time.  I used my white gel pen to enhance the monster's little spots.

Suplies used on this card:

Create a Smile free Digistamp

Hero Arts "It's your day" stamp set

Hero Arts Raspberry Jam shadow ink

SSS Stars & Dots stencil (May CKOM)

America Craft Twine (black)

Recollections cardstock (white)

Uni-ball Signo Gel pen (white)

(I purchases theses products at Simons Says Stamp and Michaels)

And for me second card I did some water colouring with my distress markers.  Michaels had a 40% coupon on your entire regular priced purchase so I picked up another pack of the markers.  Their selection for the ink pads hasn't changed in over two years so I'm improvising.  

I used the markers for the back ground and the bunnies along with some shimmer mist from Heidi Swapp and Tattered Angel.  I used the Mama Elephant Femme Frames to cut out the paper.

Supplies used for this card:

Mama Elephant - Honey Bunny (Mama Elephant)

Mama Elephant - Femme Frames (Mama Elephant)

Hero Arts "It's your day" stamp set (SSS)

Lawnscaping Challenge No.84 - Stars & Strips

Hello everyone!

I'm here to share a card I did for the Lawnscaping Challenge Stars & Strips.

I created a tag with the 3 x 4 journaling die and the stars that are in the same set from LF and the scripty "Thanks" die as well.  I die cut the first "Thanks" out of the stripped paper from the "Hello Sunshine" LF 6x6 paper pack.  

Then I cut 3 more out of white card stock.  When I put it together it didn't really show up against the white background so I cut one more out of black card stock and put that one on the bottom and offset it by just a hair so it could be seen.  

I then I punched two holes with my cropodile and used the Coral Lawntrimmings to make the bow.

I didn't want to waste the little cut out stars that were left over so I randomly placed them on the tag.

Holiday Card Workshop Day 1 - Card #2

Hi everyone,

I found the time to do up another card and this time I used Jennifer McGuire's card.

I didn't have a background stamp so I used patterned paper.  I heat embossed the star and coloured it with a yellow copic marker.  I used May Arts twine that came in one of the SSS CKOM and the card base has red glitter!

Thanks for stopping by!
