Lawn Fawn + Faber Castell week

Hello there!
This week the design team of Lawn Fawn is teaming up with Faber-Castell. And I've been playing with a Mixed Media metallic set and I had so much fun that I made two projects!

My first project is a CAS card. I stamped everything on watercolor paper inking my stamps with the artist pens and then I colored the stars with the art grip aquarelle pencils and blended with water :)

For my second project I decorated a mini book where I'll write my favorite holiday recipes. Loved the idea of some sugar cookies on a baking trail hee hee!
I dyed the ribbon using golden gelatos and water. Then I colored the baking tray (a piece of black cardstock) with the silver art grip aquarelle pencil and water and when it dried, I drawed the border line with the artist pen. The cookies are colored with gelatos and aquarelle pencil + water.

I hope you like my projects for today!! Thanks for stopping by :)

- Lawn Fawn stamps: Let it Snow, Ornate Ornaments, Bows and Holly, Sweet Christmas and Smitty's ABCs

A very fawny holiday - Stamp on a candle

Hi!
This week Lawn Fawn is celebrating a special holiday inspiration week full of fun stuff: projects using all their Christmas stamps and papers, videos, giveaways... Sounds great, right? ;)

Today I'm joining the celebrations with a video showing how to stamp on a candle. Well, when you see the video you will notice that you don't stamp on the candle but, ok, the stamped image its on the candle in the end :P

Please, visit Lawn Fawn blog to take a look on my video! I hope you enjoy it and you try the technique, it's pretty easy and it makes a perfect gift for Christmas :)

Tip: If you want to work with colored candles, make sure you use a candle completely made of that color. I've realized that there are a lot of colored candles that only have a bath of color. I only stamped on two colored candles: The red one on the video and the green one using And a Partidge for the Inspiration Week so I don't have a lot of experience but I've learned that the final result is better when the candle is completely colored, the one in the video has a bath of red, but is white in its core, you can see it on the bottom of the candle.

About if you can burn the candle... I found on the Internet that the answer is yes! BUT I'm testing it, I will share my inquiries with you soon ;) Anyway, never leave a burning candle unattended!!

Thanks for stopping by, have a great week!

Lawn Fawn October Inspiration Week - Winter Owl

Hi!!
It's my favorite time of the month again!! Lawn Fawn inspiration week starts today with lots of inspiration and giveaways, as always! ;)

Today we are featuring one of my favorite sets, Winter Owl. I think I'm addicted to the winter critters series, I totally love them and this new addiction couldn't be any cuter!

For my project I made a slider mini card and beacuse it's very small, it can be used as a cute Christmas tag too. I've been playing with this slider cards and I must say they're pretty awesome!! It's not very easy to see on a photo but If you pull of the ribbon, both sides inside the card, up and bottom, appear so you can see the sentiment. I'll definitely make a video tutorial to show you how this is made :)

This is how the card looks closed:

If you pull of the ribbon, the card opens:

And this is how the card looks all opened:

Lawn Fawn September Inspiration Week - Sweet Christmas

Happy Sunday, everyone! :)
Lawn Fawn September Inspiration Week started yesterday so today all the DT girls are featuring one of the new sets, Sweet Christmas.

I know a lot of people already has this set, for those of you that don't have it, what are you waiting for?? ;)
It's so so cute and fun!! I totally adore it, it's one of my favorites and not only it's great for Christmas projects because you can use it for birthday cards, "you are so sweet" cards or you can use the house without candy for all kind of everyday projects like "welcome to the neighbourhood" or "home sweet home"... Well, there are lots of different possibilities!!

I used it on easy mode, to make a Christmas card :) Hmmm... I think it's my first Christmas card this year!! I hope you like it!

I wanted to give the look of gingerbread decorated cookies so I used white embossing powder on kraft cardstock and color cardstock as royal icing. I had a lot of fun making the white on white background with almost all the candy of the set and it looks really pretty in person!
