Lawn Fawn August Inspiration Week - Hoppy Halloween

Hi friends! :)

The excitement continues today with another Lawn Fawn release, this time we're featuring a cute mini set, Hoppy Halloween. Even when Halloween is not very popular in Spain, I love it, all the decorations, the costumes, the bright colors... and of course, the stamps! ;)

So I've made a card with a spooky cute Halloween scene. This little vampire rabbit, Bunnicula, is sucking the juice out of all the carrots and wishing you a "Hoppy Halloween"! hee hee


I used other sets to complete the scene. I wanted a castle for our cute little vampire and then I thought: I have the perfect one! The castle of Critters Ever After colored in dark tones is a perfect spooky castle, don't you think?

The other elements are from Happy Haunting, a set that I totally love <3

I hope you like my little scene! Don't forget to visit the Lawn Fawn blog for amazing inspirating inspiration and a cool giveaway!!

And please, come back tomorrow, we will be featuring another stamp set :)

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn stamps: Hoppy Halloween, Critters Ever After, Happy Haunting and A Birdie Told Me

As I can't travel to CHA and share all the excitement, meet amazing people and so on, all I can do is wishing a great and safe trip to the people who will visit CHA and sending some smiles across the miles... :)
Oh! I'm very jealous LOL


I stamped the sentiment from Hello Friend after removing the ink from the little plane, then I created a strip of planes masking the sentiment and stamping the little plane several times on a strip of paper with Versamark ink and heat embossing them. Then, I colored the strip of paper with Distress ink :)

Thanks for stopping by! Big big hugs :)

Starry Summer night

Hello! :)
Today I want to share the card I've been working on lately. I had this idea long time ago and I didn't find the time to work on it until now. When I saw that the current Lawnscaping challenge theme was dimension I decided that I'd join it with this card :)


I had a lot of fun adding dimension to this card, cuting and poping the different elements at different heights to create a impression of depth in the scene. I hand draw the marshmallow and the stick is a piece of tree from the "Critters Down Under" set. The moon is from "Sunny Skies" and there's a how to here. I draw the little stars with a white gel pen.

Here's a closer pic so you can see better the dimension


I hope you like it, I'm happy with the final result. I know it's a bit dark but it reminds me the awesome warm and starry Summer nights and fills my heart with peace and happiness :)

I missed the lasts Lawnscaping challenges and that makes me sad so I'm very happy to come back! If you have the chance, join the current challenge and take a look at the blog, there are tons of awesome projects to inspire you!

Lawn Fawn May Inspiration Week - Sunny Skies

Welcome!!
So today starts May inspiration week and we are featuring a cute set that is already one of my favorites. It's bright, happy and versatile, I LOVE it! The sentiments are big and gorgeous and, what about that smiley faces? So cute!!

I have lots of ideas in my head for making cards with this set but I finally made this card because I wanted to try distress inks with water and because I want to show you how to stamp that cute moon using this set. The stars are from Bake me a Cake and Critters Ever After.


I colored it using Distress Inks, I stamped the pad on an acrylic block, added water with a brush and colored with it.

Here's how the moon looked before I cut it (sorry, it's a phone pic). First, stamp the sun, then ink the sun again and clean the ink from the sun's radiance, or use a marker to ink only the circle. Finally, stamp one of the smiley faces and you're done :)
I hope you like it!!


Thanks for stopping by my blog today, I have another card for tomorrow using another new set ;)

A scene from another world

Hi! This is my second post today, and the first time ever I write two posts the same day! If you are here to see my Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week card using Stay Tuned just scroll drown ;)

Stamping a scene is the theme for the current Lawnscaping challenge and it's my favorite thing to do on a card so even if I've been a little busy I don't want to miss this challenge!. Here is my card, the last day, almost at the last moment :P


I know my scene doesn't look at a scene at all but... What else is in the outer space than planets, stars and aliens? :P
I used the octopus from Critters in the Sea, removed the ink on the eyes and stamped it, colored with copics and then I added a big googly eye. I'm in love with that cute little alien haha
