WISHING YOU A... (1)

It's Christmas in July my friends, over at the Lawn Fawnatics Blog And I created a simply card with the Simply Celebrate Winter Critters.



For the background I due cut a pattern paper from the Let It Shine Starry Skies paperpad, using the Lacy Rectangle Stackables die set. I added this to a cardbase, from Gold metallic cardstock.



I stamped the images and colored everything with Copic Markers:
Mice: E41 - E43 - E43/ E44 - E47/ W2 - W5/ E11 - E04
Hats: B24 - B26/ BG53 - BG57
Cheese: Y15 - Y17 - YR04 - R08



I die cut the images and assembled the card. I used a white gel pen to add highlights and dots to the images.

SQUEEZE THE DAY (5)

I'm on the Lawn Fawn Blog today with this summery drink. I used their newest Build-a-Drink set, the margartia add-on die. 



For the background I used Kraft cardstock and the Tropical Leaves Background Stencils. I ink blended with Squeezed Lemonade, Fossilized Amber, Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Inks. The last color I also used for the splatters.

I die cut the margarita elements and also the lemon from the Zesty Lemon die set, and colored everything with Copic Markers. The little salt around the edge of the glass was die cut from some Sparkle cardstock:
Glass; BG000 - B00
Margarita: Y15 - Y17 - YR30
Lemon: Y15 - Y17



I added a strip of Woodgrain cardstock to the bottom and assembled everything. I used a white gel pen to add highlights and stamped the sentiment (from You're the Zest) at the top of the card.

YOU'RE THE BERRY BEST FRIEND (1)

We have a new challenge on the Lawn Fawnatics Blog And it's a very special one, because it's the 200th challenge!!! We made it center around friendship, anything goes. I used the new Summer Friends stamp set for this card.



For the background I used a pattern paper from the Gleeful Gradients paperpad. I added a strip of Fruit Salad pattern paper at the bottom. 



I stamped the images and colored everything with Copic Markers:
Strawberry: R08 - R46/ G07 - G28
Iced tea: Y15 - Y17/ YR30 - Y15/ R32 - R35/ BG000 - B00

I die cut all the images and assembled the card. I added little speech bubble and stamped the sentiment from Sweet Friends at the top of the card.

I added some lines below the pineapple, to making it look like he's jumping. And some highlights to the images, with a white gel pen.

TIME TO SHELL-EBRATE (3)

I'm at the Lawn Fawnatics Blog today with this Summertime Fun challenge card. You still have a few days to join us. I used the How You Bean? stamp set and its Seashell Add-On set. I added some mice from Bubbles of Joy to it.



For the scene, I wanted to create a beach. I die cut a piece of Kraft cardstock with one of the Stitched Hillside Borders dies. I added splatter to this, with Kuretaki Gansi Tambi watercolors. I also die cut water with one of these dies, ink blending it with Salty Ocean and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide Inks.

For the sky I used Fossilized Amber and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Inks. 



I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Marker:
Jar: BG000 - B00
Lid: C2 - C5
Mice: E41 - E43 - E44/ E04 - E11
Shells: YR30 - YR31/ R32 - R35/ B34 = B45/ V22 - V25/ W2 - W5



I die cut the images and assembled the card. I stamped the sentiment. I colored the open letters with Y38 and YR68.

I used a white gel pen to add highlights and dots to the images.
