HAVE A COZY HOLIDAY SEASON, MAY YOUR SWEATERS BE UGLY AND BRIGHT (1)

Today is the start of a new Lawn Fawnatics challenge: Holiday Critters. I used the Ugly and Bright stamp set for this Christmas card.

I used a Ballet Slippers cardbase. I stamped the sweater images onto the background, using Ballet Slippers ink, creating a tone on tone look.

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

Bear: E41 - E43 - E44

Deer: E57 - E79/ E00 - E11/ E41 - E43

Fox: E33 - E35/ E00 - E11/ E04 - E11

Sweaters + hats: R32 - R35 - R37/ R27 - R59/ G82 - G85

Candy cane: R32 - R35 - R37

I die cut the images and added them to the stamped background. I stamped and heat embossed one part of the sentiment onto a strip of Chili Pepper cardstock. The rest of the sentiment was directly stamped onto the bacground.

CHRISTMAS TAGS (15)

It's Fawny Holiday Week over at the Lawn Fawn blog. I decided to create some Christmas gift tags for this week. I used the Say What? Holiday Critters stamp set and the Scalloped Circle Gift Tag die set.

For the base of the tag I used Kraft cardstock. For the circle on top I used Let it Shine Starry Skies pattern paper. I die cut some little hills from white cardstock, using the Simple Stitched Hillside Borders die set.

I stamped the images and colored everything with Copic Markers. Here is a list of all the colors:

Deer: E41 - E43 - E44/ W5 - W7/ W0 - W3/ E00 - E11/ YR21 - YR23/ B21 - B24 - B26

Cat: W3 - W5 - W7/ E04/ YR21 - YR23 - B21 - B24 - B26

I fussy cut all the images and assembled the tags. I stamped the setiment into the little speech bubbles and added some twine to the top of the tags.

For the background I used a piece of Let It Shine pattern paper. I added s trip of Woodgrain cardstock to the bottom.

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

I die cut or fussy cut the images and assembled the card. Because there was not a lot of room for a sentiment, I decided to add a speech bubble with the sentiment.

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