Lawn Fawn & Perfect Paper Crafting

Hi there!
Yes, I'm still alive, lol! It might seem that I've been taking some holidays from paper crafting but I've been playing with the new Lawn Fawn stamps, getting ready for the release party that will start on May 4th, stay tuned!! ;)

This week Lawn Fawn and Perfect Paper Crafting are teaming up to show how two amazing products, Perfect Layers and Perfect Tears work with the cute Lawn Fawn stamps.

Both products were new to me so I decided to try both on my project: Perfect Tears rulers for my mountains and Perfect Layers rulers for my pink frame around the card. Also, Perfect Tears pack includes a refillable pen to use with water to help tearing heavy cardstock; I used that pen to draw the lines of my layers of grass and then tear them exaclty as I wanted. I love this stuff!

Visit Lawn Fawn blog for more inspiration using this products, also, Kelly is sharing a coupon code for the Perfect Paper Crafting store!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog today, have a nice weekend!! Hugs!

My little book of animals - Lawn Fawn & Punky Sprouts mini album

Hi!!
How is your week going so far? I've been very busy lately! The people of Punky Sprouts sent the Lawn Fawn DT some of their mini albums to play, I want to thank them because the albums are totally awesome!!

When I received my Punky Sprouts mini album I was struggling with what to do because scrapbooking is not my thing... I was going to give it a try with my pets or pictures from my land but suddenly I had an idea: a mini book for children about animals, making it fun with some games and interactivity.

Well, I loved the idea and I started to work on it... You know when your idea starts growing by itself and it gets out of your control? LOL It happened and when I wanted to keep the book simple and add only a few things... Well it ended like this and it took me A LOT of hours to finish it.

Using the front page as a guide, I cut a piece of cardboard to add to the first pages

The fun part pf these mini albums is that you can go creative and add elements like manila tags, acetate sheets... everything! I added an acetate sheet for a little guessing name here:

I know, it's not very hard :P but the solutions are behind the sheet!

Sea animals is one of my favorite pages, each one of the animals has its name hidden and you can pull out to see it

The Critters on the Savanna are stamped on sticker paper so the glasine bag is full of stickers to full the Savanna landscape!

Who is disguised in the snow? Just follow the numbers with a pencil to find it out! (Yes, I'm like a little girl, hahahaha)

For the Australian critters (sorry Aussi people, I know Oceania is not only Australia but I didn't find a better name, I accept suggestions!) I made a little envelope and I created a list of curiosities about all those cute animals.

Finally, one of my other favorites (because I love this Lawn Fawn set) I left the animals this way so the children could color them. Also, the name of each animal is hidden so they complete the blanks first :)

The end!  I hope you've enjoyed my "little" project :)

I want to say that I don't have children in my life, this means I thought about all this with no experience, I don't know if it is balanced or for what age it is suitable... I just trusted my inner child so, please, forgive my mistakes :)

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today, have a wonderful day!!

Cinderella's wish - Lawnscaping challenge #49

Hi!!
This is the first Lawnscaping challenge of the year and we're celebrating Lawnscaping's birthday too so, is there any better challenge than "let's party" for the occassion? As this is a special challenge I'd love that you join us!!

I've made this card inspired by Cinderella's tale. I used a lot of stamps to create the magical scene and I think that a little girl would love it!

The little dots and splashes are from Perfect Pearls Mist, it gives a nice shiny look but I couldn't photograph the shine and it looks a bit weird... I hope you like it, anyway!

I've also decorated the inside of the card. I don't do this very often and I don't know why because I think it's really lovely and little surprise for the receiver :)

Our sponsor in this challenge is Simon Says Stamp so you could win a $25 gift certificate to their store. Isn't that great? ;)

Do you remember this little guy?

Hello everybody!
Today I want to share another CAS card, this time featuring Gnome Sweet Gnome :)

The first time I saw this stamp set, the little gnome remembered me a show from my early childhood so when I stamped him, I decided to investigate a little and color him like the gnome in the show.

He is David the gnome :)
I always tought that this was a show from some european country but I discovered that, actually, It's a spanish show! I also discovered that you might know about this show if you are from USA or Australia.

If you don't know him, I can tell you that I always remember him with love and nostalgia. This show is about a gnome doctor, his wife, the animals and the adventures of the gnomes and their enemies, the trolls. But it's also about friendship, justice and concerning about nature. Very important things for a child to learn, in my opinion :)

The name of the show, in spanish, is "David el gnomo", and I thought that maybe some of you might want to see the spanish opening, remembering the good ol' times hahahaha :0)
My favorite was Swift, the fox!!

So this card is my little tribute to you, David! (Oh, I know, you live inside a tree... well... I think that mushroom looks very comfortable too...)

Thanks for stopping by, you are the best!

Supply List:
- Lawn Fawn stamps: "Gnome Sweet Gnome" and "Critters on the Farm"
- Copics
- Twine
- Memento ink: "Tuxedo Black"
- Hero Arts mid-tone inks: "Green Fields"

Unusual Mom's day card

Hi!
Past Sunday was Mother's Day in Spain because we celebrate it the first Sunday in May but I made my homework (using Wikipedia) and I know that it's celebrated the second Sunday in May in lot of places like the United States and Australia so my card is not necessarily late! hehe
Actually there are Mother's days all year long all over the world!

Let's go with the card. I had this idea and it seemed cool and funny in my mind but I think I'm not very happy with the final result... the colors, the patterns, the sketch... I don't know why! At least, I love the sparkling purple eggs, lol

Anyway I decided to share it because maybe it serves as inspiration for you in some way :)

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn stamps: "Critters Ever After", "Critters in the Forest", "Critters on the Farm", "Ornate Ornaments", "Flying By" and "Say Cheese, Too"
- My Mind's Eye papers: "Happier"
- American Crafts papers: "Hello Sunshine" (I'm not sure about this one because I used a scrap)
- Stardust stickles
- Memento ink: "Tuxedo Black"
- Hero Arts mid-tone ink: "Bubble Gum"
