THANKS YOU (11)

For the new Lawn Fawnatics Challenge we're going sky-high!!! I created this sky scene, using the Plance Awesome and its add-on stamp set together with All My Hearts.

For the background I used Lilac cardstock. I ink blended with Villainous Potion and Dusty Concord Distress Oxide Ink and the Stratus Cloud Background stencil. 

I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Markers:

Mice: W3 - W5/ E41 - E43/ E04 - E11

Balloon + hearts: RV32 - RV34

Paper airplanes: RV32 - RV34/ BV02 - BV7/ V22 - V25

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

I'm on the  Lawn Fawn today with this fall themed thank you card. I used the Lovely Latte die set.

For the background, I used a pice of Sticky Note cardstock. I took the Fall Leaves Background Stencils and ink blended the leaves with several Distress Ink colors: Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber and Candied Apple. 

I die cut the mug elements from Chili Pepper, Vanilla Malt and Chocolat Bar cardstock. The eyes and mouth were die cut from Black Licorice cardstock.

I used the Giant Thank You die to die cut a sentiment. I used Kraft and Chocolate Bar cardstock. This way it's more dimensional. I also used the leaf dies from the Pumpkin House die set. I die cut those from Fake Tan, No. 2 Pencil and Sunflower cardstock.

I assembled the card and added some highlights with a white gel pen. I love the look on this card.

I wanted to create a one-layer card. I used the In Bloom stamp set from My Favorite Things and the Thank You Wishes set from Mama Elephant.

I first stamped the big sentiment, with Versafine Onyx Black Ink. Then I stamped all the flowers around the sentiment. I used my Tonic Studios Stamping Platform, perfect when you have to stamp solid stamps and want to do stamp layering. The inks I used are all from Lawn Fawn. Here are the combinations I used for all teh flowers:
Sunflower Ink, Carrot Ink, Pumpkin SPice Ink, Lobster Ink
Celery Stick Ink, Freshly Cut Grass Ink, Moonstone Ink, Forget-Me-Not Ink
Butter Ink, Sunflower Ink, Carrot Ink, Pumpkin Spice Ink

I wanted to use a color pallette using not too many colors. I wanted a spring colored card.

I added the panel onto a Sticky Note cardbase and rounded off the top and bottom right corner.

I took some Nuvo Crystal Drops to add as finishing touches. I used three colors: Dandelion Yello, Apple Green and Silver Moondust.

I normally use a lot of layers on my cards, so it was kind of fun to create a one-layer card for once.

THANK YOU (2)

For this thank you card I used the Harvest Mouse stamp set by My Favorite Things.

I started on the background. I used watercolor paper and Distress Inks as watercolors. I used five Distress Ink colors: Chipped Sapphire, Wilted Violet, Cracked Pistachio, Worn Lipstick and Spun Sugar. I wetted the paper and added the colors one by one to the paper. Trying to blend it and create a soft look.

I stamped and heat embossed the big sentiment, from Thank You Wishes by Mama Elephant, with Ranger embossing powder in the color white.

I added some white paint to the background, by flicking a paint brush over the panel to create splatter.

I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Mice: C0 - C2
Clothes: B18 - B39/ YG41 - G02/ V17 - V09
Apple + berries: R17 - R46

I fussy cut the images and added them to the panel. I adhered the panel onto a piece of Ballet Slippers cardbase.

I'm not completely sure about this design, love the colors though.

I made a set of thank you cards with the Thank You Wishes stamp set from Mama Elephant.

I started on the background. I started by blending some Distress Ink onto watercolor cardstock, with a mini ink blending tool. I then used the Funky Florals stencil from My Favorite Things and went over the background with the same color. I used four different Distress Inks, one for each card. I used: Seedless Preserves, Wild Honey, Peacock Feathers and Worn Lipstick. This way you get a cool tone on tone effect.

I stamped the big Thank You onto all the cards. For each card I used a different sentiment that I stamped under the big Thank You.

I rounded off the bottom left and top right corners with the We R Memory Keepers Corner Chomper and added some glitter to the Thank You, with the Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Pen. I added all the panels to a white cardbase.
