HAPPY HALLOWEEN (22)

For this Halloween card, I used the Build-a-Cauldron die set from Lawn Fawn.

For the background, I first started blending with Dried Marigold Distress Oxide Ink. I masked off the bottom part. I layered some Spiced Marmalade and Candied Apple Distress Oxide Inks over it, using the Spiderweb Background Stencils. I splattered some black watercolor onto it as well.

For the bottom part, I used Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Inks.

I die cut all the elements. I used the following Lawn Fawn cardstocks: Sugarpplum, Fake Tan, Vanilla Malt, Cilantro, No. 2 Pencil adn Storm Cloud. For the cauldron I also ink blended with Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink. For the drips and foam in the cauldron I ink blended with Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Ink.

I assembled all the elements, adding them to the ink blended background. I used a white gel pen to add highlights and stamped the sentiment from Sweet Spiders.

HAVE A TREAT-FILLED HALLOWEEN (1)

I was so excited about this new stencil from Lawn Fawn, the Spiderweb Background Stencils. I used it for this Halloween card, with the Sweet Spiders stamp set and its add-on set.

I used the stencil with Lucky Clover and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Inks. I used some dark green watercolor to add splatter to the background, with the stencil still on there. I only want the splatter on the green parts, not the web.

MANY THANKS (4)

When the "ber"-months start, I'm all about autumn! The new You Crow Girls stamp set from Lawn Fawn, is a perfect match to my all-time favorite stamp set Happy Harvest. I decided to combine them for this thank you card.

For the background, I ink blended grass, using the Grassy stencil. I used Fossiziled Amber and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Inks to blend. For the sky, I used a cloud stencil and Broken China Distress Oxide Ink. I also added splatters with this color.

To create more dimension, I die cut the Grassy Border from No. 2 Pencil and ink blended the blades with Spiced Marmalade.

I stamped the images and colored everything with Copic Markers. Here are all the colors I used:

Scarecrows: E29 - E77/ E11 - E04/ Y21 - Y26/ R05 - R46/ G82 - G85/ E55 - E57/ B91 - B95/ Y38 - YR04

Sunflowers: Y15 - Y17/ E29 - E77/ G82 - G85

I'M GRATEFUL FOR YOU (1)

I used the new Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder from Lawn Fawn for the first time, for this thank you card.

For the background I used some Knit Picky Winter pattern paper. At the bottom I added a strip of No. 2 Pencil cardstock.

I die cut the elements for the coffee cup from Vanilla Malt, Paper Bag and Ground Coffee cardstock. The sleeve around the cup was die cut from the Gotta Have Gingham Rainbow paperpad. For the lid of the coffee cup, I ink blended with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide Ink. The cup was blended with Black Soot.

I wanted to add some pumpkins, so I die cut these using the Stitched Pumpkins die set. I used Fake Tan and Cilantro cardstock. I ink blended the pumpkins with Abandoned Coral Distress Oxide Ink and used Lucky Clover for the stems.

For the little heart, that will go on the sleeve, I heat embossed the sentiment. This sentiment is from the All the Speech Bubbles stamp set.

I assembled the cup and the pumpkins, adding everything to the background. Adhered the little coffee beasn as well and added highlighst with a white gel pen.

Can you tell I'm really ready for fall?
