Winter Wonderland: A-Frame House Card

Hello! Are you embracing the magic of the winter season? This winter-themed card showcases an A-frame house set in a serene, snowy forest. The festive sentiment “Fa La La La” adds holiday cheer.

I revisited a previous design but gave it a fresh twist by using different colors and changing how I added snow to the scene. I explored a variety of techniques for adding snowy details to cards HERE.

- Dry-emboss light-teal cardstock with a snow folder. I used an embossing folder made by Sizzix, now retired. Add panel to A2-size card base.
- Cut a snowbank from Snowdrift cardstock and add to the background. I used a die in the now-retired Spellbinder Camper Life set.
- Cut the Layered Narrow Pines from Snowdrift cardstock. Each tree has two parts. To create a snow effect, apply Cosmic Shimmer – Fluffy Stuff – White to the overlay pieces and heat set. Assemble.
- Cut the A Frame House from a variety of cardstock colors. I used a Taylored Expression brick embossing folder to add texture to the chimney. Add Cosmic Shimmer – Fluffy Stuff – White to the top of the chimney and the roof and heat set.
- With dies in the Lawn Fawn Build-A-House Beach Add-On and Build-A-Cabin sets, cut windows and a light. Assemble and add to the house.
- Press the sentiment in Thunder ink (Jet Set ink set) with the Mistletoe Greetings plate and cut with the coordinating plate.

I am entering this card into the Simon Says Stamp Challenge with a theme of Cold & Frosty.

Festive Deer Card for 52CCT Challenge

Hello! I’m sharing an entry for the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown! This simple, yet colorful, card brings holiday cheer with a playful die-cut deer and JOY sentiment.

The sketch inspired me to keep the layout clean, letting the patterned paper and focal point really stand out.

- With the 4 1/2″ die in the Large Stitched Square set, cut the background paper. Add to a card base.
- Cut a white cardstock strip and die-cut the top with a die in the Stitched Hillside Borders set. Add to a patterned paper strip and adhere to the card background.
- Cut the Cheery Deer, including the string of lights, from a variety of cardstock colors and assemble.
- Cut the sentiment with Alphanumeric Bold letter dies from white foam and adhere to the card front.

Pineapples and Aloha Vibes

Hello! Today, I’m sharing a summer-themed card that captures the essence of tropical paradise. Featuring two pineapples adorned with hibiscus flowers, this card radiates happiness with its vibrant colors. The cheerful sentiment “aloha” adds the perfect touch.

- Cover A2-size card base with patterned paper. You can read more about background options in this post.
- Cut the Polaroid frame from white cardstock with the Say Cheese, Again die. I used this die on a nautical-themed card HERE.
- Stamp the Lawn Fawn Aloha sentiment on to the frame with black ink. The stamp set is available at Frantic Stamper.
- Add patterned paper to the back of the frame and add frame to card front.
- Color white cardstock with a variety of Distress inks. Cut the cardstock with the Playful Pineapple die set to create the pineapples and flowers. I used the inlay technique. The Playful Pineapple set creates a pineapple with eyes and mouth; the set also includes dies so that those elements can be eliminated.
- Add pineapples and flowers to the card with dot and foam adhesive.

Lawn Fawn | Summertime Adventure Card

Hello! Today I am sharing a summer-themed card that showcases the Lawn Fawn Woodland Critter Huggers die set. Featuring a charming fox holding a refreshing glass of lemonade, paired with the sentiment “Adventure Awaits,” this card spreads cheer and anticipation for summer escapades. The Woodland Critter Huggers set was released in 2018. I recently purchased it because I have always thought it was cute and Lawn Fawn released the Summer Add-On last year. (There is also a Winter Add-On, released in 2018, that is on my list to buy.)

- Cut patterned paper with the A2-size die in the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables set and add to card base.
- Cut fox with the Woodland Critter Huggers set and summer accessories with dies in the Summer Add-On set; assemble as required.
- Stamp Car Critters Road Trip Add-On sentiment and cut with a banner die.
- Add assembled fox and sentiment banner to card base.

Lawn Fawn | Refreshing Summer Card

Hello! Today, I am sharing a summer-themed card created with a combination of Lawn Fawn products. More than half a year ago, I wrote about the hot beverage theme–coffee, tea, and cocoa (hot chocolate)–on handmade cards. In that post, I noted that I had never created a card featuring a cold beverage. I couldn’t resist the Lawn Fawn Build-A-Drink die set.

I approached the design of this card differently than I usually do. I first constructed the Build-A-Drink lemonade before deciding on the background and sentiment. However, I did have the patterned paper (from my stash) as a starting point for the colors I chose.
