Lawn Fawn - Monochromatic Frosty Family Shaker Card

jeudi 21 novembre 2024

Hello there,

I'm very happy to be back on the Lawn Fawn YouTube Channel & Blog with this new holiday card showcasing the adorable Frosty Family and Frosty Family Add-On. I went for a whole monochromatic minty look and created a shaker card for more fun and festivity.


I started off by stamping the images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Jet Black ink. I cut them all using the coordinating dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used:  Frosty Family & Frosty Family Add-On - snow people, hats, scarves, arms, small sentiments  Winter Birds - piles of snow, birds  All The Speech Bubbles - speech bubbles.



At the back of the frame, I added double sided tape on the four edges, attached the acetate panel, and added foam strips on the four edges. I used my powder tool to make the sides of the foam strips non sticky, pour some sequins and snowflake confetti on the acetate, and then attached the remaining panel to the foam strips to totally close the shaker panel.


For my greeting, I cut two Giant Merry Christmas out of two different Textured Canvas Aqua papers, another one out of Pixie Dust cardstock, and I layered the aqua pieces on top of each other. Next I used a Stitched Simple Wavy border die to cut the tops of the pixie dust letters, and attached those glitter white pieces on the aqua Giant Merry Christmas using liquid glue.

I attached my greeting on the upper part of my shaker panel using 1mm foam squares, and then the images right below using foam squares as well. I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and for an extra sparkling touch, I added liquid glue on the snow people mostly, sprinkled Prisma glitter on the glue, and let it dry for a cool frosty effect.

Freakin' Cute Stamps - Chatouille

samedi 16 novembre 2024

Hi there,

I'm so happy to be back with the third and final card I've made as a guest designer for Freakin' Cute Stamps. My first card features Pedro, the second one Citrouille, and on today we meet the ever so sweet Chatouille. Here are a few words about her:

Chatouille is the cutest little mouse who has a serious obsession with flowers and leaves! She can often be spotted frolicking through the forest, armed with a tiny basket, on a mission to find the perfect plants to create the most beautiful bouquets, wreaths, and even adorable veggie ornaments! So, if you ever stumble upon a trail of petals and veggies during one of your strolls, keep an eye open : you may catch sight of our adorable Chatouille.


I printed Chatouille and two flower baskets on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock, as well as two fences from Button, Teacup and Truffle, I cut the images using my scan 'n cut machine, and colored them using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers.

For my background, I cut a 5,25 x 4 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel that I stenciled using distress inks. On the upper part, I created a cloudy sky using a cloud stencil from my stash along with salvaged patina and peacock feathers distress inks. And on the lower part, I created a hill border using a hillside stencil from my stash along with peeled paint and forest moss distress ink.

I stuck my panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches brown panel using double sided tape, and then the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. For my greeting, I cut a wavy banner out of dark brown cardstock, white heat embossed "Wishing you a very sweet day" and attached it Chatouille using foam squares. And as always I finished my card with highlights and details on the images using a white gel pen.

Sunny Studio - Holly Jolly Christmas Card

vendredi 15 novembre 2024

Hello there,

I'm happy to be back on the Sunny Studio blog with this new super duper colorful Christmas card showcasing the lovely Toasty Hugs characters, as well as some of my all time favorite stamps from Scenic Route, and a color palette I've never used on a holiday card before, or even used at all.


As very often, I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink. I cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and Graph'it brush markers.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Toasty Hugs - boy and girl • Scenic Route - strings of lights, houses • Cozy Christmas - Christmas tree, present • Santa Claus Lane - presents • Reindeer Games - reindeers • Snowmen In Sweaters - snowflakes, trees.


Next I cut a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel that I colored using oxide inks. On the top part I blended some shaded lilac, wilted violet and villainous potion. I splattered water droplets on the sky, and dried the cardstock using a paper towel. I mixed some villainous potion oxide ink with water, and used a slim brush to add splatters to my sky. On the bottom part I applied tumbled glass and peacock feathers oxide inks. I mixed some tumbled glass with water, and used my slim brush again to add splatters on the panel. Next I mixed some copic opaque white ink with water, and added splatters all over my panel, and I did the same with liquid stardust.


Once my panel was dry, I stamped "Wishing you a holly jolly Christmas" from Santa Claus Lane at the bottom of my panel using black versafine ink, and then I attached all the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. For the last details, I added highlights on the images using a white gel pen and a dot of glossy accents on all the lights. And I wanted the snow on the trees and roofs to be sparkling, so I added liquid glue on those spots, sprinkled fine glitter, let the glue dry, and then went over the whole panel with a fluffy brush to get rid of the excess glitter.

Freakin' Cute Stamps - Citrouille

dimanche 10 novembre 2024

Hello there,

I'm back with the second card I've made as a guest designer for Freakin' Cute Stamps. This one features the adorable Citrouille, and just like my first card I made with Pedro, I used brown, yellow, green and turquoise shades to match with the current autumn season.


Here is a quick intro about the lovely Citrouille:

If you're in need of some gourdgeous decorations, Citrouille's place is where it's at! Born in a patch of pumpkins, Citrouille possesses an uncanny knack for sniffing out the most charming squash specimens to spruce up your space.

I printed Citrouille on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock, as well as two fences from Button, Teacup and Truffle , cut the images using my Scan 'n Cut machine, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my Graph'it brush markers.

For my background, I cut a 5,25 x 4 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel that I stenciled using distress inks. On the upper part, I created a cloudy sky using a cloud stencil from my stash along with salvaged patina and peacock feathers distress inks. And on the lower part, I created a hill border using a hillside stencil from my stash along with peeled paint and forest moss distress ink.

I stuck my panel to a 5,5 x 4,25 inches brown panel using double sided tape, and then the images using 1mm and 2mm foam squares. For my greeting, I cut a wavy banner out of dark brown cardstock, white heat embossed "Wishing you a very sweet day" and attached it below Citrouille using foam squares. And as always I finished my card with highlights and details on the images using a white gel pen.

Lawn Fawn - Interactive Snowball Fight

vendredi 8 novembre 2024

Hello there,

I was on the Lawn Fawn YouTube Channel & Blog this week with this holiday card showcasing the adorable Snowball Fight stamp set. I've made it interactive using the Reveal Wheel dies, and had a lot of fun creating this bright pink winter landscape.


I started off by cutting a Reveal Wheel panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock which I divided it into three sections: the sky on the upper part and two snowy hills on the lower half. I created the hills using a Hillside stencil along with spun sugar and kitsch flamingo oxide inks, and then the sky using kitsch flamingo, picked raspberry and seedless preserves oxide inks. On the sky, I splattered water that I dried using a paper towel. I also mixed some picked raspberry and seedless preserves oxide inks with water, and used a slim brush to add more splatters to my sky. Next I mixed some spun sugar oxide ink with water and added splatters on the snowy hills. I mixed some copic opaque white ink and some Liquid Stardust with water, and added even more splatters all over my panel.


I set my panel aside to dry, and stamped all my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Jet Black ink. I cut them all using the coordinating dies, and colored everything using my Ohuhu markers and my graph'it brush markers.

Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used:  Snowball Fight - wall, mice, snowballs, piles of snow, snowflakes, small sentiment  Yeti Or Not - Christmas tree, tree  Winter Village - pile of snow, tree  All The Speech Bubbles - speech bubbles  Simply Celebrate Winter Critters Add-On - small sentiment.

Next I cut a Simple Wavy Banner out of Textured Canvas Pink cardstock, white heat embossed my "Have a very cool Christmas" from Penguin Party on the banner, set it aside for later, and then assembled my Reveal Wheel panel. Please check the process video down below to watch that part.


Once my interactive panel was complete, I attached it to a Pixie Dust Outside In Stitched Rectangle panel, and then to a 6x6 Candy Cane Lane Large Stitched Rectangle panel using liquid glue. I cut another Simple Wavy Banner out of Holographic cardstock that I stuck at the back of the pink banner. I attached my banner at the bottom of my panel using 1mm foam squares, and then all the images.

Next I added the last details: I applied a little bit of liquid glue to the trees tops, wall, snow piles and snow mouse, and sprinkled Prisma glitter on those places to make them sparkle on the glue has dried. I added a tiny drop of glossy accents to each light on the trees to make them all shine. And as always I finished my card with highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.
