Winter Skies

I love this sweet set from Lawn Fawn called Winter Skies. What I love most about Lawn Fawn stamps is that it is hard to not make a cute card with them! Great mix and match sentiments also.
Background done with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks of Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire, Mowed Lawn, and Crushed Olive.

Pumpkin Spice

Check out this warm and wonderful new set called Pumpkin Spice from The Project Bin! I love fall and the scent and flavor of pumpkin spice, it always seems so comforting and homey to me. The sentiments in this one are unique and lots of fun!
I used some older Close To My Heart designer papers that I had been saving with some Tim Holtz Wildflowers die cuts. This card uses the Mojo Monday sketch #521.

Present Shaker

For the Jingle Belles Tag Challenge this week. I can't get enough tags, I make and send them in batches to my sisters since they have a lot of grandchildren. This elf is from Art Impressions and the present is cut out and attached to an action wobble so it shakes and jiggles. I'm sure we are all guilty of shaking a present or two! These wobbles are so much fun and an easy way to add a little something extra to a project. I bought a big bag of them on ebay a while back and really love them. See second picture for wobble works.

Hello Beautiful

Decided to make a card with the various items on my desk today.
A brushos panel, a daisy stencil that I used copper Nuvo embellishment mousse on, some rhinestones and sequins, and a butterfly set that I got in London (maker unknown). The card base was from my drawer of pre-folded or partially decorated fronts, this one had some gold embossing on the edges. 

Royal Peacock

Today's technique challenge over on Splitcoast was dot art mandalas. I did the technique on the tail feathers with acrylic paints. Royal Peacock stamp by Srampin' Up! embossed in gold, side portion is Victorian Lace (retired) embossed in white with a strip of washi tape.

Blue Christmas

It's not too early to start working on our holiday projects! This adorable Merriest Christmas set from The Project Bin makes it super easy to turn out some sweet winter cards, the die cuts really made this a breeze!

Blue Fairy

Stamped the Tres Chic script background in silver (Stampin' Up!). Stamped Lavinia fairy and silhouette flowers in black. Inked edges with Tim Holtz distress inks of Tumbled Glass, Mermaid Lagoon, and Chipped Sapphire. Added glitter to fairy wings.
For the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge of Midsummer Blues.

Believe

Cupcake Inspired Challenge # 476 with stash item of glitter (added glitter to wings and Wink of Stella to dress). Stamp is Secret Garden by Simon Says Stamp, card base is embossed Stampin' Up! (retired). Background is done with Tim Holtz distress oxide inks of Salty Ocean, Worn Lipstick, and Fossilized Amber.

You Are Not Alone

Love these little aliens peeping up over the dashboard! The set is called Milky Way from the Project Bin. I used some designer paper from Echo Park and accented the skies with glow in the dark Nuvo enamel drops. This little flying saucer is super easy to cut out with the coordinating die.

Dare To Get Dirty

  Lawn Fawn "So Jelly", sunglasses from "On The Beach". Waves embossing folder by Stampin' Up!

Butterfly Collage stamp by Technique Junkies.

"Milky Way" by The Project Bin. Washi tape banners and sequins.

Penny Black angel, Stampin' Up! lace 3d embossing folder.

There are some very fun and creative challenges going on over at Splitcoast Stampers this week with the Dare To Get Dirty 2019. I usually try to do them all but just haven't had as much time this year. Check them out if you have a moment, there are prizes involved for those that complete all of the challenges! 

Turtle Travel and a Snowman

Oh, this image brings such joy, I love the sweet little smile. The set is called Love Your Shellfie and also has matching dies available. Check out The Project Bin's blog for more really cute cards made with this.
This was a fairly simple card that used a combination embossing/die cut folder (Sizzix) on white card stock. I stamped the turtle on the inside of the card and embellished with some pink sequins.

This darling set is called Merriest Christmas and the snowman and sentiments will warm your heart. A little something for everyone here. I used a designer paper for the background sky, some stitched white hill dies (Lawn Fawn), and the star (from Milky Way set) in silver. An easy card to create with the help of the coordinating dies.
