I started by stamping the reindeer dog a bunch of times from the new Cozy Sweater Dogs set! then I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers to color them in! I also added some details with a white gel pen. once everything was dry, I used the coordinating dies to die cut them out. 

for the background, I used the Mountains Stencil and some Lost Shadow and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks. I also added some texture with a slight sparkly paste on the tops of the mountain ranges! 
I also die cut out the snowy hill from white glitter cardstock using the Land Borders Die Set. 

I die cut out the scene with the Arched Frames Die Set. I placed the whole thing onto a piece of patterned paper from the new Lovely Knits Paper Pack. then I added the snowy texture white paste and the Petite Snow Stencil. 
the sentiment was heat embossed in white onto black cardstock and then, I fussy cut it out.

my 2nd card is so sweet and cozy!
I used some patterned paper from the new Lovely Knits Paper Pack as the base. then I used white embossing paste and the Plaid Stencil Set to add even more texture and fun to the paper! 

as the card base was driving, I did some die cutting!
I used the Snowfall die set and die cut out a bunch of snowflakes from glitter cardstock. then I die cut out the outline image with vellum.  I sprinkled them around the card. LOVE the mix of the texture of the patterned paper, glitter and vellum!

the sentiment was heat embossed in white onto green cardstock. then I used the Banner Trio Die Set to die cut it out. 
I really LOVE how this came out!

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #232 - Holidays Past & Present

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

any excuse to use a Lawn Fawn critter is a win for me!

here we go!
let the holiday card making commence!

I started by stamping the images Cozy Dogs and Ho-Ho-Holidays. then I colored them in using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. once everything was dry, I added some details with a white gel pen and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out!

for the background, I used a piece of the gorgeous patterned paper from the new Let it Shine Holiday Plaids Petite 6x6 Paper Pack. 
I love that soft, neutral color of cardstock with the pop of the gold! so pretty and soft! I love using it as the background of the card to really let the images pop! I also added some texture with white paste and the Snowflakes Stencil!

I die cut out some of the snowy landscape for the card with either Stitched Hillside Borders or Puffy Cloud Borders. I just love how it sets the scene for this winter day of mischief with the pups!
the sentiment is was heat embossed in white onto Black Licorice Cardstock and then die cut out with the Stitched Sentiment Banners. 

I really can't WAIT for you to play along! you could win a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!!!!

enjoy!

not so spooky spider costume!

hello!
i'm back with another card today!
happy halloween from Newton's Nook!! 

be sure to check this card out up on the Newton's Nook Designs blog - I dressed up the kitty so he's ready to go trick or treating!

is it cute?!
can you tell it's a kitty dressed up as a spider!

I did so much die cutting with this card!

I used the Cat Builder Die Set and Halloween Accessories Die Set to create the kitty!

I just die cut a bunch of extra arms to so it can have 8 legs like a spider! then I used the bottom of that trick or treat back to die cut out a face hole for the kitty, so it would look a little like a spider costume he was wearing! lol

then I die cut a bunch of candy, because that's what trick or treating is all about!

for the background, I die cut out some vellum webs using the Spiderwebs Die Set - just to make sure the point came across that he was in a spider costume! lol
for the card front, I used some medium grey cardstock and the Clouds Stencil along with some Black Soot Distress Ink, just to a little bit of spookiness to the card. and of course, I had to splatter some white acrylic ink on top! 

I used the larges frame from the Torn Edge Frames Die Set, and die cut out the card front. I popped up the frame along the edge with foam tape. 
for the sentiment I die cut it out with the Halloween Accessories Die Set!

be sure to check this card out on the Newton's Nook blog, too!
enjoy!

Cool Christmas Wishes

hello and happy Halloween!
today I'm sharing a holiday card using some of the new products from Lawn Fawn. this card is up on the Lawn Fawn blog, and BONUS, I also made a video!
you can check it out here, or on my youtube channel!

so fun!
I started by doing lots and lots of die cutting.
I die cut out the penguins from the new Big Hugs Penguin using Blue Jay Cardstock and White Cardstock. I also used the No 2 Pencil and Pencil Eraser cardstocks for the penguin, too. 
once everything was die cut out, I used some coordinating Distress Inks to add a little shading. I used Black Soot for the body of the penguins, Lost Shadow for the whites, Saltwater Taffy for the blush and Abandoned Coral for the beak. 
I also die cut some of the 'hair' from the Tiny Gift Box Unicorn and Horse Add-On. which is literally my favorite accessory to add to these big pop-up images! ha!

I also die cut out the Build-an-Igloo from white cardstock. I then used some Stencil Paste - Fairy Dust to add glitter to the seams of the igloo. I love how it mimics some of the snow from the rest of the scene! 
I used the Sparkle Cardstock - Pixie Dust for parts of the snow on the ground, as well as on the igloo itself. 
the snow on the ground was die cut also using white cardstock and the Stitched Hillside Borders.

I used some of the grey patterend paper from the Spiffier Speckles 6x6 Petite Paper Pack for the front of the card and inside of the card. 

I stamped the sentiment from Penguin Party in a mix of Distress Oxide Inks in Abandoned Coral, Saltwater Taffy and Peacock Feathers and Blueprint Sketch for the sentiment, which was stamped directly on the front of the card.

inside the card, of course, I used the Big Hugs Pop-up mechanism to really bring this penguin to life with a big hug!

I hope this card makes you smile and ready for some wintery weather! 
be sure to check out the card up on the Lawn Fawn blog, too!
enjoy!

oh my guoache!

hello!
today I have a super punny card up on the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog! 
the current challenge is all about having an extra bit of fun and creating a bingo to make a card! 

I decided to use the 2nd row down for my card!
Die Cuts-Bold Sentiment-Banner-Window-Grass

so fun!!!

I love the window element and how you can see through to the inside of the card! 
I started by doing a lot of die cutting!
I used the Mr Sun and Stitched Rainbow for the cute main elements!

I also added some shading with Distress Inks in coordinating colors
I used various colors from both the Schoolyard Pack of Cardstock and the Sherbet Pack of Cardstock.

I also used white cardstock to die cut out the grass with the Grassy Border.
I also die cut out the fun art accessories using the Art Supplies set.
I wanted to let the rainbow artist POP with the white and black of the front. 

I also used the biggest splatter of paint to use as the window of the card front!!
I love that the sub is peaking out over the arch of the rainbow! so fun!

the sentiment was a mix of die cuts using Henry's ABCs and heat embossing with the Harold's ABCs stamp set. 
then I used the Stitched Sentiment Banner to die cut it out!

inside the card, I create a fun scene FULL of color!!! 
for the background of the canvas, I used the Stratus Cloud Background Stencil and some Stencil Paste in White to create a beautiful sunny day!

I also used some more grass, this time in green! 
I love the fallen guoache paint tubes and brushes!! so fun!
I hope you like the card and the pun as much as I do! It makes me smile!
