Ok, so I have tons of ideas for these babies, I mean, this not only make slider cards easier, they make them more fun to make because of the different paths and possibilities!

Sea you soon 1

I chose the curvy die for my card because it was just perfect to have my dolphin surfing the waves haha.
I used Stitched Hillsides to cut my waves and colored everything with Copics and Distress inks. The clouds are leftovers from my Yay Kites card.

Sea you soon 2

Also I added a lot of sparkling with a Wink of Stella pen, a Shimmer spray, sequins and Liquid Pearls. You can't see most of this in the above pictures but I have this one too <3

Cupcakes & Pint Sized Patterns - LF March inspiration week

Hello!!

Lawn Fawn inspiration week continues with the DT featuring products from the new release and I have 2 projects to share with you today.

First I used the new Scalloped Cupcake Wrappers and Bon Voyage stamp set to decorate some cupcakes. You can imagine my excitement when I saw Lawn Fawn was making these cupcake dies, I love baking so these are the perfect touch for an extra cute homemade cupcakes!

Party plane cupcakes

I heat embossed the clouds on the wrappers with white embossing powder on some new Pint Sized Patterns Beachside paper (I LOVE these paper with stars!!) and then quick colored the inside of the clouds with white Distress paint. I love it because it gives a translucent look to the clouds and it dries quickly :)

Party plane cupcakes - single

Then I colored the planes with copics and cut them with the coordinating dies. Also, I adhered a trail made with some twine. I wanted to do this since I saw Elena's heart trails on her Sending Love party. I'm such a fan of Elena's partys! Obviously hers are much more pro and pretty but I loved the idea and wanted to use it on my cupcakes too :)

My next project uses the new paper line too: Pint Sized Patterns Beachside. And because the colors (and name!) reminded me of sailing, sea, beach, etc. I grabbed my Critters in the Sea stamps and coordinating dies and created a scene with some paper piecing.

Under the sea

It's easy and simple but I love how the colors pop on the dark background. I added some white sequins in different sizes like they were bubbles to add some shine. And, of course, some twine, I love the sweet touch of some twine on a card (but I'm sure you've already noticed that hee hee).

Under the sea - close

Riley's ABCs - Lawn Fawn April Inspiration Week

Hi! Welcome to another day of the Lawn Fawn April Inspiration Week!

How is your week going so far? In a sad note, I want to remember the people of the Boston marathon... Acts like this one break my heart... What does it happen with some humans?? :(

And comming back to the crafty world, today's featured set is the newest alphabet set from Lawn Fawn, Riley's ABCs. This one is a great addition to the alphas collection, I love the big bold letters and their unique look.

Also, I'm loving the nautical trend lately... I haven't been always a fan of this one but, lately, and with the help of the addition of new cute elements and gorgeous color combos... Well, it just happened. And I needed to make something using Lawn Fawn stamps.


I decided to make a pair of placecards and an invitation for a nautical party. Because there's no Lawn Fawn nautical stamp sets, I used the waves and the shell from Critters in the Sea and made some origami sailboats as embellishments :)
My favorite part is the color combo, I LOVE it!

Following the same design, you could make all the elements for a nautical party, like food cards or thank you bags. I hope you're feeling inspired!

Don't forget to visit the Lawn Fawn blog for more inspiration from the amazing girls of the DT, a video and a card from the sweet Kelly Marie and of course, a giveaway!!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today!! I hope you have a wonderful day :)

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!!

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn stamps: Critters in the 'burbs, Critters on the Farm, Critters in the Sea, Critters on the Savanna, Critters in the Snow, Critters Down Under, Critters in the Forest, Sally's ABCs, Riley's ABCs, Sharp Backdrops, Interlocking Backdrops

Lawnscaping Challenge #55 Embossing

It's time for another Lawnscapinch challenge!! This time we're challenging you to make a project using the embossing technique, either dry or heat embossing, just have fun! ;)


I've been playing a bit with my Inktense pencils and I came up with this background, I heat embossed with clear embossing powder and Belinda's Borders and then colored it using the pencils and water. I've always loved the ombré effect so I'm happy it became so trendy!


For the word I used Feather Turquoise Narrators stickers, first I colored them with a dark blue Copic, adhered them to the background with foam adhesive and finally, I adhered other "hello" using the original blue stickers above the colored ones.
The bubbles are made with Liquid Pearls, it adds cool dimension and shine! I love it! Thanks again, Mel, for introducing me to this cool product!

This time our sponsor is Simon Says Stamp, so you could win a $25 coupon to the shop! :)

Guest designing with Lawnscaping - Origami sailboat

Hi there, friends!
I LOVE Lawnscaping challenges and all the sweet people of that little community so I'm more than happy to join the two challenges of September as a guest designer! :)

This time the challenge is about making a card following this sketch. Sketches are great and very useful but for some reason I'm not good with them so this was very challenging for me. I love when challenges are bit hard! I was making some drawings and writting some different ideas before I found out what to do and it was so fun!


Finally, I decided to make an anniversay card, simple and very symbolic, and as I don't have a boat stamp, I came out with the idea of making an origami saliboat and add it to my card. I tried to make something very simple but with some dimension and texture, I hope you like it!


This is a closer pic, I added some glossy accents to de little heart for some shine. The sea is colored with distress ink sprayed with water.


Please visit the Lawnscaping Challenges blog to the the other inspiration samples by the DT members and join the fun and enter a card to this challenge, I love seeing all the inspirational cards and other projects in the Lawnscaping blog!


We have an amazing sponsor for this challenge, Simon Says Stamp! They have offered a yummy $25 gift certificate to their online store to the lucky winner!

Lawn Fawn March Inspiration Week - Grand Greetings

The set that we're featuring today is "Grand Greetings" and I made two projects to show you how awesome is it!

Did you see the videos where Chari and Kelly Marie show how to dye the natural hemp cord from lawn trimmings? I wanted to give it a try and I used "Worn Lipstick" to dye mine and it matches perfectly with Lawn Fawn "Bright Side" papers! I LOVE it!
