Lawnscaping challenge #54: Stitching

Hi again! ;) This is my second post today so if you're looking for my Lawn Fawn project  featuring Daphne's Closet collection, just scroll down or click HERE!

It's time for another Lawnscaping challenge! And it's all about stitching, either real or faux :)

I wanted to try some real stitching because it's a thing I barely do. AND this was my first time using my sewing machine on a card (the green zig zag on the borders) it's super easy! I always was afraid of messing up everything so I hadn't do it. But this time I got my sewing machine and did it, and... it's really easy... nothing to be afraid of :) So I'm thankful for this challenge, I'm going to do this more often on my cards :)

The pink paper plane trail is hand stitched but, no, I'm not that professional, my hand stitching is poor so I tricked a bit! ;) I stamped the bee trail with a very soft ink, then I made little holes following the line with a needle and with all that done, sewing is very easy and the final look is very cool!

Also, I have to mention that I LOVE this patterned paper! When I saw the collection it surprised me because it has a map of my country and it includes the name of my city!! :) Well, I know it could seem a nonsence to you but I'm ecited about this haha. I f you wonder, my city's name is Lugo, it's in the north east, just below the paper plane's end :P

I hope you join us for this challenge, our sponsor this time is Lawn Fawn and you could win a stamp set of your choice! The problem is which one to choose! ha! :)

Paper planes & paper clips

Hello everybody!
I made this card last week but I've been too busy/lazy to take it a photo and share on the blog...

I need to mount my lightbox, lights, etc each time I need to take a pic so thinking of it is like... ughh... So I usually finish some cards before mounting the "photocall" except if I'm very excited with the card or I'm running out of time for entering a challenge :P

I had fun making this card because I didn't plan it, just had the idea of paper planes + paper clips + bright colors and started to play, sooooo relaxing! :)

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you had a great week!

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 :)

Lawn Fawn March Inspiration Week - Flying by

Hello!
The fun continues today with another wonderful set! This time, we're featuring the mini set "Flying by". How cute are these little paper planes? I love them! They're great for all kind of cards and the handwritten sentiment is just adorable!

I made a very simple card to let the planes be the star of the show. Here is my card:

I used the amazing Lawn Fawn kraft paper as background and stamped the trees from "Critters in the Forest" on two different patterned papers from the Petite Paper Pad. Then I colored the planes with my copics to match the ribbon and background chevron, stamped the lines, the sentiment and I hand stitched the border and added a cute ribbon and button to finish it. i hope you like it! :)
