Lawn Fawn – Snowman…

I’ve been wanting to use my Lawn Fawn stamps and earlier this week when a couple of our granddaughters and their friend were over, we played with them!   So fun!

Of course my snowman had to be holding a heart! (MS border punch)   I used a Magnolia DooHickeys tree die and limeade twine.

I stamped on Hammermill 80# color copy cover paper with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Promarkers and Flexmarkers.  I used my Perfect Paper Layers Tools to matt the image and MFT Die-namics cloud dies for the snow!   The greens are Forest green , Apple Cider and Pear green.   The blues are Twilight Sky and Midnight Blue.  I used Flexmarkers for the grays… Blue Grey 1, 2, 3, 4.   Can’t remember the browns on the birdie.  The orange is pumpkin.

I’m linking up to the Lawnscaping Challenge and the theme is “Dust ’em off”!  woohoo!  My card made the Top Mows!

No place like home…

I  know, I know… it’s not Christmas! lol  This has just been unfinished for three weeks or so and I had to finish it yesterday!!!  Just had to so I could move on!  I’m happy with it finally!  One of those cards where I had to keep walking away and coming back! eek!

I love this Printworks chair… the third time I’ve used it and the second time for this Printworks window that I love too!  HERE, HERE AND HERE.   All the stamps I used are from Printworks.   The pattern paper is from the Echo Park 6×6 pad called Season’s Greetings. The Chair is paper pieced.  I edged the pieces with Distress Walnut Stain ink and the ink blending tool.  I think this living room type scene could be for any time of year!  Happy 2nd day of 2012 to you and yours!  Hope you don’t have the biting cold wind that we have here in Iowa! Brrrrrr.  Wish I didn’t need to go out today!  Hip hip hooray this card is done though!!! lol

Sweet November Winter Kids Zach…

All That Scraps Tuesday review today… CC Designs Sweet November Winter Kids line is featured today on the ATS blog HERE.  I needed one more Christmas card for a nephew last night… Zach was perfect for a young man!  I tried coloring his headband or what is that called?  camouflage. lol  The piece of pattern paper is from October Afternoon’s 8×8 campfire pad.  The holly punch is from The Punch Bunch and I punched it in two colors and layered the lighter over the darker.  I had to edge the papers with Walnut stain Distress ink and my ink blending tool.  AmyR stamps Snowman Sayings for the Coolest Holiday Greetings sentiment.  Zach is “cool”!
