Brew-tiful Lawn Fawn Card by Elise!
Hi friends! Happy Tuesday! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Elise Constable on our blog to showcase some fabulous NEW inspiration featuring some cutie Lawn Fawn products! Be sure to read on and enjoy!
Hi friends! It’s Elise from the Lawn Fawn design team and I’m excited to share a card with you all today!
It finally feels like fall in my area, so I created a cute fall card to celebrate. I started by stamping all of the images for my card with Jet Black ink onto white cardstock and colored the images with Copic markers. I tried to stick with fall colors of reds, oranges, yellows, and browns, and I added a pop of teal as well.
Most of the images are from the Treat Cart and Treat Card Add-on: Coffee stamp sets, but I added some extra images to help create the fall scene. The pumpkins are from the Happy Harvest set and the hay bales are from the Hay There, Hayrides! stamp set.
After stamping, coloring, and die cutting all of the images, I started to create the background. The background panel was die cut with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle die, ink blended with blue distress oxide inks, and then attached to the card base. I added a few birch trees to the background and trimmed off the edges. The tree tops were created with the Puffy Cloud Borders and the ground was die cut with the Simple Stitched Hillside Borders, and they were both ink blended with distress oxide inks. The ground was attached with double sided tape and the tree tops were attached with foam tape to add some dimension to the background.
Then, it was time for the fun part – arranging (and rearranging!) the images in the scene! Once I was happy with the layout for the scene, I attached the images with foam tape and liquid glue. To finish the card, I stamped the sentiment and tied an orange twine bow along the top.
I hope this card has inspired you to create a fall scene as well! Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting! –Elise

Sparkly Cute Boo Notecard Set by Cheiron Brandon
Hi there crafty friends! It’s Cheiron Brandon here and I am thrilled to be sharing a fun Halloween project with you today using Tim Holtz products. I love to send Halloween cards to friends and thought it would be fun to create a girly, sparkly batch of cards using the new Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Spooky Spirits stamps. Did you know that these stamps are the perfect size to pair with all of the elements in the Crazy Things stamp set which has so many cute little accessories including a bow and a jack o’lantern. I also stamped the jack o’lantern again over the ghost “hand”. I am going to make 6 of these at once so I have Halloween cards to send out, but you can totally just create one!
To begin, I stamped one of the ghosts from the Spooky Spirits, bow and jack o’ lanterns onto Distress Watercolor cardstock using Versafine Clair Ink. You will want to use an ink that is permanent when dry since we are going to watercolor on it. Then I took more panels of Distress Watercolor cardstock and cut them to 3 ¾ x 5. I used the Sparkle stencil and added some Distress Sparkle paste through it using a palette knife, then set my panels aside to dry.
While the panels were drying, I colored the ghosts, bows and jack o’lanterns using Distress Watercolor pencils and a waterbrush and dried them with a heat tool. After that, I cut them out (no need to cut out the handles!). Once everything was cut I assembled the ghosts with a bow and jack o’lantern. When the panels were dry, I blended some Distress Inks in Kitsch Flamingo and Saltwater Taffy. Then inside of a splat box, I sprayed over my panels with Distress Spritz in Kitsch Flamingo and Saltwater Taffy. This makes the panels super sparkly and shiny!
To complete the cards, I added the ghosts, sentiments that I stamped and embossed on black cardstock to the card panels before adhering them to the card bases. I hope you enjoyed this pink Halloween cards, I can’t wait to put them in the mail with some treats!
