I created this simple slimline card, using the Hot Air Balloon stamp set from Mama Elephant.

I die cut the panel and ink blended with Tumbled Glass and a cloud stencil from My Favorite Things.

I stamped all four images from the set and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are all the colors I used for this card:

Hot air balloons: E41 - E43 - E44/ E57 - E29/ Y15 - Y17/ R05 - R46/ BG53 - BG57/ YG00 - YG03/ B24 - B26

WHEN IN DOUBT, JUST ADD GLITTER (1)

I'm so happy with this new crafty stamp set from Lawn Fawn: Just Add Glitter.

For the background I used All the Dots papers. I added a piece of white Woodgrain Cardstock to the bottom to act as the floor.

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

Mice: E41 - E43 - E44/ E11 - E04/ B24 - B26/ BG53 - BG57/ R46 - R59

Table + chairs: E31 - E33 - E35/ W0 - W3

Cardstock: B24 - B26/ R46 - R59

Ink Pad + card: BG53 - BG57

Scissors: W0 - W3/ BG53 - BG57

Brush: W0 - W3/ BG53 - BG57/ E31 - E33 - E35/ W5 - W7

Pencil: E31 - E33 - E35/ BG53 - B57/ R46 - R59

Ruler: R46 - R59

Glitter: B24 - B26/ BG53 - BG57/ W3 - W5

Glue: B24 - B26/ W5 - W7/ R46 - R59

I die cut the images. I also die cut the sentiment, using Henry's ABCs. I used Black Licorice cardstock and silver glitter cardstock. I layered the black letters behind the silver, so it stands out more on the background.

The rest of the sentiment was stamped and heat embossed on a piece of Blue Jay cardstock.

BE CREATIVE (1)

I'm so happy Lawn Fawn brought us some craft-themed products. And this die set, Art Supplies, is just wonderful.

For the Vanilla Malt background I used theit new Paint Splatter Background stencil. I wanted each splatter to have its own color. Here are the Distress Oxide Ink color combinations I used:

Squeezed Lemonade + Fossilized Amber

Twisted Citron + Lucky Clover

Dusty Concord + Villainous Potion

Candied Apple + Aged Mahogany

Cracked Pistachio + Lucky Clover

Fossilized Amber + Spiced Marmalade

Tumbled Glass + Salty Ocean

Salty Ocean + Blueprint Sketch

Spun Sugar + Worn Lipstick

I die cut the elements from Lawn Fawn cardstock. Here are all the colors I used:

Kraft, Paperbag, Vellum, Fog, Storm Cloud, Chili Pepper, Cilantro, Fake Tan, Moonstone, Sunflower, Peacock, Blue Jay, Sugarplum, Ballet Slippers, Black Licorice

I assembled all the craft supplies and added them to the background. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment with Lawn Fawn Embossing Powder.

There is also an Easel die set, but I'm still waiting for that to arrive. It's perfect in combination with the Art Supplies set.

THANKS (8)

When coming up with new themes for the Lawn Fawnatics blog, all of us sent in theme dies. And today my suggestion has gone live: Create a project using only dies. And I made this card using the Strawberry Patch die set.

For the background, I used a piece of Spiffy Speckles pattern paper. All the strawberry elements were die cut from Watercolor Wishes patter paper. Something I never did before, because I usually use solid cardstock for this. Only for the backing behind the strawberries I used Storm Cloud cardstock

I assembled the strawberries and the little branches and added them to the Spiffy Speckles background.

I used Henry's ABCs dies to die cut the word 'thanks' from Narwhal cardstock. I added them to the card as well.

It's a very clean, simple and quick card to make.

YOU'RE TOPS IN MY BOOK (2)

I got this idea of an open shelving scene when watching a YouTube video by Nichol Spohr, one of my main inspirations when it comes to card making. I used the Feels Like Home and Feels Like Home Addition stamp sets from Avery Elle.

For the background, I wanted to create a wall. I used Brick stencil from My Favorite Things. I ink blended onto Vanilla malt cardstock, using Tea Dye and Gathered Twigs Oxide Inks. I added dark brown watercolor splatters to it.

I die cut the Peek-a-Boo Backdrop from Woodgrain cardstock.

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

I fussy cut all the images and assembled the card. I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of Vanilla Malt cardstock, using Forget-Me-Not Ink.

These two sets are on my favorites list of this year, for sure!!!

YOU ARE THE G.O.A.T. (GREATEST OF ALL TIME) (2)

Today I am on the Lawn Fawn blog with this cool slimline goat card. I used the You Goat This stamp set.

I die cut a piece of watercolor cardstock with the Large Slimline with Sliders die. I ink blended clouds onto this using a Clouds Stencil and Tumbled Glass Oxide Ink.

I die cut two grassy hills, using the Simple Grassy Hillside Borders. I ink blended them with Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Ink.

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

I die cut all the images and added them to the scene. I die cut the words 'The Goar' from Chili Pepper cardstock, using Henry's ABCs. The rest of the sentiment was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black Ink.

I used a white gel pen to add some highlights to the die cut letters and the images.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU (8)

I made a birthday card using the Beary Rainy Day stamp set and the Giant Happy Birthday to You die from Lawn Fawn.

I did some subtle ink blending. For the sky, I ink blended the top of the slimline panel with Cracked Pistachio Oxide Ink. For the bottom I did the same, but using Jelly Fish ink from Lawn Fawn.

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

Splashes: BG000 - B00 - B12

Hearts: R46 - R59/ R01 - R32

Rainbow: R46 - R59/ BG45 - BG49/ Y15 - Y17

I die cut all the images and assembled the card. I die cut the Happy Birthday to You from three different Lawn Fawn cardstock colors: Peacock, BNo. 2 Pencil and Chili Pepper. I layered the three die cuts for a cool 3D effect.

I added white highlights with a gel pen to the images and the sentiment.
