happy Monday!
let's start this week off with a NEW challenge over at the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog!

yay!

 

this is such a fun challenge - definitely one of my favorites!!
can you guess what TV show inspired me...?

what fun, right? lol! it's Sailor Moon!
I used to watch this show growing up, and honestly, it still holds a special place in my heart! I love it so much, and have alllll the nostalgia!
I stamped and colored all of the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then fussy cut them all out! I used so.many.stamp sets!!

All the Clouds (small moon)
Purrfectly Wicked (cat)
Happy Howloween (large moon, cape and mask) Screen Time (girl and boy)
You are Sublime (hair)
Meow You Doin? (hair buns)
Snow Cool (hat and bow)
Scent with Love (rose)

I used Distress Inks in Black Soot, Uncharted Mariner, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina to create the background! I also used Squeezed Lemonade to create the moon glow. 
once it was all set, I used the Starry Sky Stencil and some white embossing paste.

 

I finished by heat embossing the sentiment in white onto black cardstock and then popping it up with foam tape! I used the Harold's ABC's and Out of This World stamp sets to create the sentiment!

Fly High Shadow Box Card

hi there!
today I have a fun card up on the Lawn Fawn blog, and for some added fun, I made a a video too!
you can check it out here, or on my YouTube channel!

let's dive into this fun uplifting card, shall we?

what fun!! I wasn't wrong! ha!
I colored images from Fly High, Virtual Friends Add-On, Dandy Day, Super Star, Love Poems and Bubbles of Joy. I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to color all of the images, and then once they were all dry, I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out.

I used the super fun Shadow Box Card dies with the new Stripes 'N Sprinkles 6x6 paper pad!
I also added some ink blending to the tops of the Shadow Box card itself with Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina, for a little extra dimension! what fun!

I also die cut out the hillside dies for inside the Shadow Box with white cardstock, and then I used Distress Inks in Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn.

I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto Black Cardstock, and then added it to the back panel of the card - which is just the sweetest with the mouse! it looks like he's looking up at it! love how it turned out!

be sure to check out the video and laugh along with me, and to check out this card on the Lawn Fawn blog, too!
