My Lawnscaping Embossing Challenge Share
Hey everyone!
I just wanted to share with you my entry for this week's Lawnscaping Challenge! This week's prompt was embossing. I decided to use embossing powder for my card. Last week I saw an amazing card made by Chari Moss where she made an embossed midnight sky and I wanted to use her inspiration to make a card. You can find this card on the Lawn Fawn blog. I just love how my night time pumpkin patch card came out. It makes me so excited for fall and Halloween.
For this card I water coloured the background, using Tim Holtz Evergreen Bough and watercolour paper. I embossed the background with the Lawnfawn Starry Backdrop stamp and Platinum Gold embossing powder. I used back cardstock to die cut the grass using The Lawn Fawn Grassy Border Die. I wanted to enhance the night time scene. The super cute little cats are from the My Lucky Charm set. I added a bow to the little go cat with a bow from the Love N Breakfast stamp set. I also used the a Lawn Fawn stamp set So Thankful to get those cute pumpkins. I wanted it to look like the pumpkins were sitting in the cats laps, so I cut out their little feet and glued them to the front of the pumpkin. That is by far my favourite part of this card.
For the stamped images I used Copic Markers. The colours I used for the pumpkins were E59, E57, YR07, YR14, YR04, YR02. For the moon I used Y35 and added some wink of Stella to make it shine. For the cats I used W3 and W1, I added some flicks with the W3 to make it look like fur. The cat collars were coloured with Y35 and B29, as well as the bow. For the cats cheeks I used R20.
Below are the stamps and dies used for this card.

My Style Stamps Pocket Letter "Frozen Treats" and "Happiness Enclosed"
Hello Crafty Friends!
I am back to share with you my design team project for this week featuring some of the sets from the new My Style Stamps release! Today I will be sharing with you a project I made using the "Frozen Treats" and "Happiness Enclosed" sets, which are two of my favourites from the new release!
For my project this week I made a fun summer pocket letter. These are all the craze right now and I have been loving making these and selling them in my Etsy shop. For this pocket letter I used the stamps to create my background cards, I love how they turned out, it is so nice to get such a nice array of uses for my stamps.
I copic coloured the chocolate sprinkle popsicle in the middle shaker pocket and added some My Style Stamps mixed sequins. I also copic coloured the coconut drink. The other Popsicle were paper pieced using some coloured paper. I stamped some of the sentiments onto tags, circles and also created a cute stamped washi tag. I think that one is my favourite pocket. Then of course I filled up the back with goodies and it's ready for a crafty home. This cutie is available for purchase in my Etsy shop. These super cute My Style Stamps sets are not available for purchase yet, but they will be later this month. Here is the site where you will be able to find them www.mystylestamps.com

Lawnfawn Sparkly Ice Cream
Happy Sunday!
I'm here today to share a super cute Lawn Fawn card with you. I just recently got the set "My Lucky Charm" and I just love the little cat. He is so sweet and his little hand is just perfect for adding that little spoon from "Treat Yourself". I can't believe that I haven't seen a ton more ideas with him. I have so many ideas going through my mind of how I can use him on my cardS. I will definitely be back with a lot more cute shares using this little guy.
For this card I used both the Lawn Fawn sets "My Lucky Charm" and " Treat Yourself". I cut the little cats hand so that he could be holding the spoon. I Copic coloured these sweet images and added some Diamond Stickles to the ice cream. What could be cuter than sparkly ice cream. Love it!
Since I had so much fun making this sweet card I had to make another in my favorite colour... PINK! I love them both! Here are some pics of the sets that I used for this card. Here is where you can find these sets. Www.lawnfawn.com

MyStyleStamps Cool Sweet Treats Card
Goodmorning crafty friends!
I have an exciting card to share with you today using one of the new August release stamps from My Style Stamps. I received my design team package this week and wait until you see all of the cuteness. I am loving all of their new releases. Today I am sharing with you my design team project using this super cute popsicle and cool treats set.
For this card I wanted to try a new technique using a monochromatic background and a fun pop of colour. For my card base I used The Recollections 80lb card stock and Memento Tuexedo Black ink. To start with a stamped out the images positioning them on and off the paper. I didn't have to do any masking for this card, I just arranged the images around each other. I also added in the cute large and small heart which are included in this set. I stamped out an extra Popsicle on a seperate piece of paper and cut it out on the black line. To colour the blue Popsicle I used the Copic colours BG13, BG11, BG10 for the blue portion and for the Popsicle stick I used E55 and E53. I also tied a piece of Doodlebug twine around the stick in the Swimming Pool blue colour. For the monochromatic grey background I used the Copic colours C4,C2,C0 and my colourless blender to shade the Popsicle and cool treats. This was definitely a different type of card for me and got me out of my comfort zone, but I am so happy that I tried it and I love the end result. This set is not yet available for purchase, but it will be released this month from MyStyleStamps. Here is the link if you would like to check out their website.

Waffle Flower Willy & Friends Cuteness
Goodmorning lovlies!!
It is Sunday, so you know I have a cute card to share with you! Todays card was made using the Waffle Flower 'Willy & Friends' stamp set. I have already made two other cards with this set, and I just love it so much!
After making my pink dancing card with this stamp set, I had the idea to use some tulle to jazz up this cuties skirt. But when I got out the tulle and started playing around with the stamped images I thought WEDDING!!! So these little monkeys turned into a bride and groom! Don't they look sweet? I love how they turned out! I added some tulle to one of the cute bows and turned it into a viel. The little groom monkey got a shirt and bow tie! ;) I copic coloured the stamped images, using the shadowing technique that I saw on the Waffle Flowers Youtube channel. I just love using that technique now... you just leave alittle white edge around the image and it gives it some amazing shadow. The papers that I used are from the Doodlebug Graduates collection and the cute 'Love' sentiment is just a sticker from a Simple Stories sticker sheet. Here is another picture of this cuteness!!
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog! It means so much to me!! Of the three cards I made with this Waffle Flower 'Willy & Friends' set, which one was your favourite? Here is where you can find this cute set: www.waffleflower.com

Ribbon & Enamel Dot Technique Cuteness
Hey lovlies!!
Today I am sharing two cute techniques for using ribbon and enamel dots. I love how this card turned out, it makes me think of swimming and the beach. For this card I used Lawnfawn stamps. The sets that I used to make this card are: Fintastic Friends, Critters In The Sea, Love N'Breakfast (for the cute bow), Our Friendship Grows, and Critters Ever After. The dies that I used for this card are the Lawn Fawn Ocean Wave Borders, and the Large Stitched Rectangles Stackables.
For the fun enamel dot technique I scattered sparkly enamel dots along the bottom of the card to look like sand at the bottom of the ocean. The enamel dots that I used were from various Doodlebug packs. The new Doodlebug enamel dots have glitter in them, and they are so cute.
For the ribbon technqiue I used some blue polka dot American Crafts ribbon and I just twisted and adhered it on the card. I think it looks so cute and whimsical. It really gives the card some cute dimension and makes the little sea critters look like they are swimming through the water.
I copic coloured these cute stamped images. For the copics I used, B00, B0000, BV02, BV00, R20, RV02, RV04, RV06, Y21, Y32, G40, YG06, G05, E13, E15, and E18.
I hope you enjoyed these fun little techniques. Thanks for stopping by my blog! xo

Coffee Lovers MyStyleStamps Design Team Post
Goodmorning lovlies!
Just wanted to share my design team project for this week with you. This week I used my favourite MyStyleStamps stamp set 'Coffee Lovers'. I cannot get enough of this cute coffee cup. I collect the Christmas Starbucks travel mugs and I just had to paper piece this adorable cup to look like their latest gold polka dot mug. Here is a picture of their polka dot Christmas mug from this past Christmas! The gold and polka dots.. swoon!
And what is coffee without some adorable donuts. The donuts used in this shaker card are from Taylored Expressions 'Donut' die. It is really really tiny, which is perfect to put in your critters hands or for SHAKER CARDS! :) I also used the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables die from Lawn Fawn as well as the Ocean Wave Borders die to make the cute scallop. I used Doodlebug twine and a cute button. The sentiment "Coffee Create Sleep Repeat" is from the 'Coffee Lovers' MyStyleStamps set. The pretty sequins are also from My Style Stamps, they are the Bahama Blue sequins.
Here is where you can find this cute stamp set: www.mystylestamps.com
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and I have you have a lovely day! xo
