Lawn Fawn ‘Oh What Fun’ Card and I’m a Guest on The Foiled Fox Blog Today…

Hi everyone! Welcome!  I’m sharing the magic of the holiday season with my card today! It’s my pleasure to be a guest cardmaker on The Foiled Fox blog!

When Shauna asked me I immediately started looking at the new Lawn Fawn release thinking Winter/Christmas scene making!

I’ll link to The Foiled Fox store below for everything I used to make this card.  Free shipping at $50 and a lot of great companies, Lawn Fawn, Altenew, My Favorite Things, Concord and 9th and so many more!

I started with a panel of 110# Solar White cardstock cut to 4 ¼ x 5 ½ inches and then die cut it with the new LF Snowfall Backdrop:Portrait die.

I wanted a night sky but lighter toward the bottom so I used Distress Ink pads in  Tumbled Glass, next up Faded Jeans and then top is Chipped Sapphire, all applied and blended with the Foam Mini Ink Blending tool.

I spattered the inked background with water drops, let that dry, then spattered on a little diluted white acrylic paint. Set that aside to dry.

I die cut the Little Town Hillside (pop up) die in black cardstock and spattered it lightly with white also.  I tend to get spatters everywhere even using a box but it’s worth it! lol  Trim the Little Town Hillside die cut to fit the bottom of the card.

I stamped “O what Fun” (the bear in the sleigh) in Tuxedo Black Memento ink, die cut it and colored it with Copic Sketch Markers.

I stamped and die cut the reindeer and ropes from the stamp and die sets Toboggan Together and colored them with Copic Sketch Markers. Add gems to the noses and white gel pen accents here and there.

I stamped and heat embossed in white embossing powder, the Simply Winter Sentiments  on red cardstock and cut them into strips.

I die cut the Reveal Wheel Snowflake add-on twice, in Neenah Solar White 100# cardstock, cut one in half and used them above the sentiment strips and one in the sky.

I taped on the town border.  The sleigh, reindeer and sentiments are popped up with mounting tape. The panel is adhered to an A2 cardbase.

I hope you’re inspired to make for Christmas! So many new and fun products to ‘play’ with! Check out the store and thank you so much for stopping by today!

Mama Elephant, poppystamps and Guesting for the CAS Christmas Challenge…

Hi cardmakers and friends!  I’m so excited to post today with the CAS Christmas Challenge!  I won their challenge a few weeks ago with a CAS wreath card and now I get the honor to play along with them as a guest! You are invited to play a long too!

The theme for this month is….

I chose to use one of the super cute Mama Elephant Santa Agenda stamps…the Santa that’s ready to go down the chimney!

He’s so cute!  I stamped him on Copic X-Press It coloring cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, in the MISTI and colored him with Copic Sketch Markers.

I used some white gel pen after I finished coloring to highlight his fur and beard.  TIP: Don’t color with Copics after you use the gel pen because it ruins the nib on your marker!

I die cut the poppystamps Snowy Merry Christmas die three times in white, glued them together, keeping all the pieces on two of the cuts. Then I die cut one time in red.  I stamped a brick stamp with black ink on the red cut, then pieced the red into the top white cut…going for a chimney look!

Everything I used is linked below.

I wanted to put snow or sparkle on the tops of the chimney but I was afraid I would ruin it! So I kept it CAS. haha

I added the small snow flake from the poppystamps Shiny Snowflake die and a red glitter dome.

On the inside I stamped, ’tis the season to be jolly from a Penny Black stamp set.

I sure have been having fun with my stamps and dies!  ‘Tis the season and my favorite time of year to make cards!  I hope you’re inspired to get in the Spirit of Christmas and make cards!  Thank you so much Loll for asking me and to the team for sharing their CAS creativity!

Thanks for stopping by!  If you want to see a fun video of a card I made that I didn’t get posted on my blog yet…click HERE…you can see it even if you don’t have an Instagram account.  I hope to make another and post instructions here soon. It’s super, super cute and FUN!  I am biased about it! HOHOHO

ttul!  (Remember to comment on my Tuesday giveaway post here on the blog, winner announced next week!)
