Lawnscaping Challenge 110

Hello!

It's time for another wonderful Lawnscaping Challenge..oh I bet this one will make you smile from ear to ear!

Make a project that inspired by the color of a rainbow. I'm so excited about this one, I love rainbow colors SO MUCH :)

We are sponsored by our beloved Lawn Fawn.

Here's my card..

I die cut the watercolor paper with my Stitched Rectangle, and do some fun watercoloring. I use distress inkpads, scribble it on my acrylic block, spray some water to soften the color and make it blendable. I also stamp the tiny hearts using the same inkpad colors as the background, I use only the second and third generation.

Don't you love this cute little monsters? I love the fact that I can color them with any color that I want. So I use the matching color for them. 

My little girl really loves any kind of monsters, especially this one..she screams "rainbow mosnters!! gimme gimme.." Hahaha.

I hope you enjoy the inspiration and of course I can't wait to see what you'll make for the challenge. Have a crafty day! :)

Tied The Knot

Hi everyone.

Lexa here today, I'm going to share a wedding card featuring Lawn Fawn Tied The Knot stamp set. All the images are so sweet and adorable, my favorite is this bird couple. They are perfect as a wedding cake topper, look so cute..aren't they? I color my images using Distress Markers and blend it with damp brush.

For the background I blend Mermaid and Hippo dye inks, using stencil from Tim Holtz. Then cut the background with my Stitched Rectangle dies.

I also add vellum to toned down the background, make it looks softer. And choose grey cardstock to make thin borders.

I use my Clear Wink of Stella on the banner for extra sparkle, and what is a card without sequins. Heehee. Sequin is really my thing!

I hope you love this card and enjoy the rest of your day. Cheers.

Happy Blogiversary dear Jenn!

One of my talented designer friend is having her 10th Blogiversary Celebration!! OMG 10 years is not a short time. You really have inspiring so many people, Jenn Shurkus! <3

One of the reason you should join this celebration is she has LOTS of sponsors.

More and more yummy goodies! Yeay!

Here's Jenn's card that I'm caseing, I love how merry this one is. So much fun..

I use the same tag as she used, but I use the fishtail instead of the tag's top. I use the same layout, sequins as the finishing accent..and I turn it into a birthday card.

I know that you will have so much FUN case-ing one of her cards. She is such a talent!

Gracias Amigo

Hola!

I've been really busy lately, I want to keep up make cards and posting more.

For today, I'm going to share this card I made using The Alley Way Stamps July release. The cactus and the "gracias" sentiment are from Cha Cha Cha.

I add the faces (Neener Neener) for the cactus because I think they look cuter with them.

And I also add the "amigo" with the alphabet stamp called Express Yourself.

I use 3 size of circles for this layout, while keep the background clean and white.

I hope your day is wonderful! :)

You've Got This

 Hi !

Today I'm going to share an inspiration how I use this new sets from The Alley Way Stamps called Old School and Oh Splat.

My idea is to color the images with some mix splatters instead of coloring them using Copic or Distress Markers like I usually do.

I make some stitched squares with matching colors as the images, to keep it coordinate. Lastly, I hand drawn the border.

This is the set look like:

And yes, OH SPLAT definetly my most favorite of this month's new release. A must have!!

Hope you have a ceafty day.

We are sponsored by the generous Ellen Hutson. The 109 challenge theme is Sparkle and Shine, you can add glitter, glossy accents, rhinestones..anything that sparkling!

I thought the sparkle theme is perfect for a wedding card. So I diecut the stitched oval with Doodlebug blue glitter paper.

Add more glitter on the cake, and of course...topped with some sequins for the finishing touch.
