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 :)

Lawnscaping challenge #47 - Color

Happy Monday!
You know what happens on second Mondays: a new Lawnscaping challenge! And today we have a fun one about color, you can only use red turquoise and red on your card. Of course, neutrals like black and white are ok :)

So I wanted to use Ornate Ornaments for this challenge, it's a lovely Christmas set that I hadn't used yet this year and here's what I made, a super sparkly Christmas card, I hope you like it!

First I stamped Magical Background on kraft and stamped and colored with copics my little ornaments on white, I added some stickles to my ornaments and more making a frame for the background. Some fussy cutting, glue and some touches with May Arts ribbon, baker's twine and copic colored pearls and it's done! I couldn't capture all the sparkle on the photo, but it's very pretty in person, here's a close look:

I LOVE this color combo and it's perfect for Christmas cards so I hope you join us this time! Our fabulous sponsor this time is my favorite online store, Simon Says Stamp! You can win a $25 coupon to spend on the store :)

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
