Lawn Fawn Cards


Hello again!

I felt I should get these up before I forget and you don't get a ton of posts all at once.  

Here is my Lawn Fawn cards.  I coloured them with copics and the card stock is from Michaels (Recollections 110# white card stock)  The sequins are from Simon Says Stamp and the thread was from Walmart.







Hope you enjoyed my cards and thanks for stoping by.

See you again soon!

Hero Arts


Hello everyone,

Today I have two crds that i made with the Hero Arts OWH Lil Hoot stamp set.  I used my copics to colour in the image, I used some water colours I got from Michaels for the background and a gel pen to do the lines around the focal point.  I used Momento tuxedo back ink for the sentiment.





For this card I used the same stamp set and copics to colour it in but I added some thread and clear sequins.  I used Momento rich cocoa ink for the sentiment.



All the supplies used are either purchased at Michaels or Simons Says Stamp (the thread was purchased at Walmart)

Thanks for stoping by!
See you soon with more cards.

SSS Wednesday Challenge "Anything Goes"

Hi everyone,

Here is the second card I made for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday "Anything Goes" Challenge.





I used the tree die and Thanks die from SSS and I distressed the edges of the white card stock.  This card is out of my comfort zone as I distressed the edges and used bakers twine.  I normally don't use either one on my cards but thought this would work for this one.




Hope you enjoyed my card.

Thanks for stopping by!

SSS Wednesday Challenge is "Anything goes"

Hi everyone,

Here is a card #1 that I made for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.


I used the SSS Merry Christmas die set and I cut it out of adhesive backed DCWV paper.  I found it in my daughter's craft drawer and couldn't resist when I saw this challenge.  I didn't have to fuss with glue or my Xyron machine.





Thanks for stopping by, see you soon with another card!

The stamp set is from the SSS October card kit as well and the YOU is from Kelly Perky that came in one of the kits.

OCC Insider D2

Hi,

It's day 2 and this class is really making me stretch my crafting abilities!

For today's card we were to show off the inside through the outside.  Acetate was used in some of the cards and others where super long cards which were all great.

Here is my card for today.  I have to say that I have a love/hate relationship with Tombow mono multi glue.  I love it but when we get together, it gets messy... and not in a good way.  So you may see a hint of glue in places that there shouldn't be but I really didn't want to do this card over again.



If you have a look at my cards then you will notice that I actually used twine on my card today.  This is a first.  I know, true story!  I used the SSS "Thanks" stamp and die set.  I die cut the thanks and stamped the "for thinking of me".


I used Recollections cards stock and I cut the whole out with my MS craft knife and the acetate is from a die set that I purchased and put them with the stamps instead of keeping them in their own packaging.



I felt the card needed something more on the front so I added the dash lines and kept that going into the inside of the card.



Hope you enjoyed today's card and stay tuned for another one tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by!

Day 1 of the Insider Card Class

Hi,

Today is day 1 of the Inside card class.  Our home work is to take an existing or new card and match the inside with the outside.  The DT showed us a few "Pop Up" techniques but I felt that it wouldn't match my card so I popped it up with foam squares instead.

I took a card that I had made with the SSS KOTM and I added to the inside.






Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for another card tomorrow!

Lawn Fawn cards

Hi everyone!

I have to say that I am tickled with my Lawn Fawn order that I placed.  For one it came in just over a week (being in Canada it takes over 2 +) and they send with my order the cutes little stamp and thank you card and a few extra 6x6 pieces of paper!




Here are a few little cards I did with the sets that I ordered.  These are little 3x3 cards that I got out of the $1.50 bin at Michaels that I like to have on hand for those spur-of-the-moments that need a card

I used the Critters on the farm stamp set for the first two cards and I coloured them in with my copics.



For this card I used the "Our Friendship Grows" stamp set and again coloured it in with my copics.  




...and this is the result of thinking it needed just a little something and then it drops down onto my ink pad!! Grrrr!!!! 


Thanks for stopping by!

Safe Travels Card - SSS September CKOM

Hi everyone!

Here is a card I did with the SSS card kit of the month for September.




For the card I used Recollections white card stock.  It did start out at an A2 size card but when I was colouring the little car black it had dropped on the edge of the card smearing some black ink on it so I cut it down so it's more like 5 1/4 x 4 1/4 but I think it still looks ok.  I used Hero Arts shadow inks, pale tomato, butter bar and tide pool.  I cut out a circle with my MS circle cutter (which I cut my finger on the first time I started this card!) at 1 1/2 in then I used my Tombow mono to adhere the the car.


Hope you enjoyed the card for today.

Thanks for stopping by!
