Lawn Fawn Spring Scene

Today I am sharing a spring-themed “Hello” card created with Lawn Fawn products.

Lawn Fawn Spring Scene

  • To begin, I stamped the images and Copic colored them. I wasn’t sure how I’d combine them at first.
  • I laid out the pieces and saw that the scene needed to be a landscape one.
  • I created the background with the Stitched Cloud Backdrop and a grassy hill cut with the Meadow Borders.
  • To fill the sky, I die-cut the sentiment with the Speech Bubbles die.

Lawn Fawn Valentine

Hello! Today I am sharing a Valentine created with a variety of Lawn Fawn products including the Mom + Me stamp set. I’ve had a lot of fun digging out various supplies to create more non-traditional, less formal Valentines.

Lawn Fawn Valentine

  • I stamped the owl and tree stump from the Mom + Me set, colored the images with Copic markers and colored pencils, and cut the images with their coordinating dies.
  • I cut the card base with the largest die in the Outside In Stitched Scallop Square Stacklets set.
  • I cut a 4″ square with the Lawn Fawn Dotted Square die set and embossed it with the Woodgrain Backdrop die.
  • I cut a heart from patterned paper.
  • I stamped the Mom + Me sentiment and cut it with a banner die in the Extra Sentiments set.
  • I cut small hearts using dies in the Wonderful Window and the Speech Bubbles sets for accents.

Avery Elle Viking

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS masculine thank you card created with the Avery Elle Viking stamp set. This is another card created with the goals of using seldom- or never-used products and practicing my coloring skills.

Avery Elle Viking

  • I stamped the viking image and colored him with Copic markers and colored pencils. The image includes a sentiment in the beard, which I covered when I stamped the image.
  • I used the coordinating die to cut out the viking.
  • I heat-embossed an Avery Elle thank you sentiment (sent in one of my Avery Elle orders) on woodgrain patterned paper.
  • I added the Viking to the woodgrain paper with foam adhesive and added the assembly to a gingham-checked patterned paper base.

Paper Smooches Chilly Chum

Hello! Recently, I’ve been practicing my coloring and using never-used and/or under-used products. I’ve owned the Chilly Chums set from Paper Smooches for many years and have never used it! I created a card with the cute fox image in the set.

Paper Smooches Chilly Chum

  • I Copic-colored the fox and shaded it with colored pencils.
  • I created the card background by cutting a hill out of vellum, placing the hill on to the white cardstock and brushing Tumbled Glass ink as the sky.
  • I heat-embossed the Winter Sampler sentiment in red to match the card base.
  • I added snowflakes to the scene and popped the fox on to the card with foam adhesive.

Penny Black Halloween Scene

Hello!  Today, I am sharing a card in which I’ve combined several Penny Black supplies in a Halloween scene.

Penny Black Halloween Scene

I die-cut the #51-571 Vintage Truck and assembled it. (This die set includes an evergreen tree die for a Christmas scene, which I plan to create in a few weeks.)

I stamped, colored with Copic marker, and fussy-cut the costumed hedgehog from the #30-592 Critter Costumes set and placed him (her?) into the assembled truck. The witch is off to a Halloween event.

The background was stamped with the Penny Black #40-254 Decadence background stamp (a stamp I’ve had for several years). I really like the feel the background gives to the scene.  The sentiment was cut with a die in the #51-077 Eeek! die set.

What I like about this card: I really like transportation-themed dies and look for ways to use them in imaginative ways; I like the pairing of the elegant, formal background with the truck; I am particularly drawn to fall colors at the moment (more so than in previous falls, it seems) and like the gold, orange, and gray combination.
