You Color My World {Reverse Confetti}

Hello there!  Today I have a happy card to share with you for the current Fusion Card Challenge!  You are supposed to create a card based on the sketch, inspiration photo, or combine the two!

I chose to focus on the sketch for my card, though the theme sort of fits as well.  To create my card, I started off with a Cloud White card base.  I used the Elemental Stripes stamp set to stamp a rainbow of circles using a bunch of different ink colors.  I used Salsa, Tangerine, Buttercup, Pistachio, Grass, Island Blue and Grape Soda.  I started from the bottom and worked my way up.  When I got near the top of the card base, I stamped a sentiment from the Work of Art stamp set, and also stamped a few paint brushes from the same set to add a bit of fun to the focal point. They were diecut using the coordinating Work of Art Confetti Cuts. One is glued flat, and the other is popped up for some added dimension.  To finish things off, I added a trio of tiny hearts in Salsa ink using the itty bitty heart from the Donut You Know stamp set.

Here you can see a close up of those cute little paint brushes!  And  how rich are those ink colors?!  YUM!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Hope to see you on the 8th for the October Blog Hop! :)

Reverse Confetti September SFYTT

Hello there!  Today, I have a card to share with you for the Reverse Confetti September Sketch For You to Try!  Here is this month' sketch:

And here is my card!  I started off with a Premier Polar White card base.  I added a piece of patterned paper from the Very Merry patterned paper pad, to the bottom of the card base.  I diecut the Rounded Stripe Panel from Brick cardstock and glued it flat to the card base with a glue pen.  Then, I used the Fa La La Circle Confetti Cuts to diecut my focal point.  The scalloped circle is cut from Avocado cardstock, while the text layers are cut from Premier Polar White and Brick cardstock.  I popped the circle up with foam tape.  Then I diecut three snowflakes using the Snowflake Trio Confetti Cuts die set, and glued them down with a glue pen.  Finally, I added some iridescent jewels to the center of the snowflakes to finish things off.

This sketch is a fun one!  Lots of possibilities!

Lawn Fawn and Scrapbook Adhesives Collaboration!

Hello there! We have lots of fun planned for you this week as the Lawn Fawn team is teaming up with our friends over at Scrapbook Adhesives!  They have wonderful products like tape runners, awesome 3D foam squares and Dodz! So after you see the projects here, make sure to head over to their blog for more inspiration!

For my project today, I started off with a Sugarplum card base.  I diecut another piece of Sugarplum card stock with the Outside In Stitched Rectangles, then splattered that piece with some Picket Fence Distress Paint.  I used the Stitched Hillside Borders dies to add a snowy hill, which I adhered with the EZ Runner Adhesive.  I stamped and colored the tree and stack of presents from  Christmas Dreams and popped them up with some 3D Foam Squares.  I diecut some Mini Snowflakes to scatter around the tree, and stamped a sentiment from the Snow Day stamp set.  Finally, I added some white gel pen accents, and popped the finished panel up on the card base with some more 3D Foam Squares.

That's all for me today!  Be sure to visit the Lawn Fawn blog for lots more inspiration from the design team!  Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week Round Up!

Hello there!  I am so sorry for my lack of blog posts this week!  The past few weeks have been complete chaos with the planning for, and arrival of hurricane Irma!  She showed up here in Florida and stole our electricity for several days.  Apart from that, we were very lucky, and had very minor damage.  School was out for the week last week, and things are finally getting back to normal around here.  Rather than make a series of blog posts and clog up your feeds, I thought I would do one giant post of all of the projects that I made to share with you for the Lawn Fawn September Inspiration Week!  If you have any questions about any of the projects, please don't hesitate to ask! :)

With Sympathy {Reverse Confetti}

Hello there!  Today, I have a sympathy card to share with you using products from Reverse Confetti.  Unfortunately, I have needed to make several of these difficult cards over the last few months.  They are tough for me to create because it's for such a sad occasion.  Instead of focusing on that though, I try to think about the person that I am sending the card to while I make it, and pour lots of extra love into creating it.

To make this card, I started off with an A2 Iced Aqua card base.  I used the Wonky Stripe Panel Confetti Cuts to cut a fun panel from Stone cardstock.  I cut it again with some patterned paper from the Free Spirit paper pad.  I glued the diecut to the center of the card, and then used the triangle pieces cut from the patterned paper to fill in a few of the open areas.  I stamped a sentiment from the Sentiment Essentials stamp set in Stone ink, and then diecut it with the coordinating Sentiment Essentials Confetti Cuts.  I popped that up with some foam tape.  Behind the sentiment, I nestled in some leaves from the Build a Bunch stamp set, which I stamped in Stone ink, and shaded with warm grey Copic markers.  Those were then diecut with the coordinating Build a Bunch Confetti Cuts. I added a tiny butterfly, perched on top of the leaves.  I stamped one of the tiny butterflies from the Butterfly Dreams stamp set in Stone ink onto Iced Aqua cardstock, and then diecut it with the coordinating Butterfly Dreams Confetti Cuts.  I added a bit of detail with a copic marker and a white gel pen.

I added a strip of 1/8" scor-tape to just the center if the butterfly, then carefully folded the wings up for a bit of dimension.  To finish things off,  I added a scattering of clear sequins.

That's all for me today!  Thanks so  much for stopping by! :)
