Give Thanks Shaker

Hey everybody! I hope you are having a fabulous Friday and have lots of fun crafty plans for the weekend :) 

I am currently taking the Shake It Up with Lawn Fawn class (taught by Chari Moss) 

over at Big Picture Classes. 

Lesson 1 was all about making a Compartmental Shaker Card. Basically, it's a shaker card that has different sections so that each compartment can have it's own set of sequins/confetti/beads/etc. 

I made my card with the following challenges in mind (in no particular order):

1. PDE Linky Party: #137 All Cards

2. Let's Craft and Create: #117 Spots or Stripes

3. Die Cut Diva's: September Challenge--Fall

Here is a look at my Compartmental Shaker Card:

For my compartments, I decided to use the Small Stitched Leaves dies from Lawn Fawn and make a Fall card. After I had my shaker card all put together, I added some faux stitching around the leaves with my white gel pen. For my greeting, I used some versamark ink and stamped the Give Thanks sentiment from the Thankful Mice stamp set from Lawn Fawn and then heat embossed it with some gold embossing powder. I flagged one end and then adhered it to the bottom of my card with a button.

Here is a look at my leaves shaken up ;)

You Are Spooktacular

Hi there and happy Thursday!!

I hope you are all having a fabulous day!

I am stopping in real quick to share a card that I made for a couple of challenges.

1. Lawnscaping Challenges: #137 Texture-fied

&

2. Sunny Day Crafting: #13 Anything Goes

3. PDE Linky Party: #136 Anything Goes

Here is the card that I created for the above challenges:

I am definitely in Halloween mode so of course my brain went straight to a Halloween card for the texture challenge over at Lawnscaping Challenges lol! I created my background by adding some yellow ink and glitter to some embossing paste. I used a star stencil to spread the paste over the top of my purple cardstock. I put that aside to dry and got to work on coloring those sweet images with my Copics. I cut out some hills and a fence from some dies and then heat embossed my greeting onto one of the hills. Once my background was dry, I  began creating my scene. I love it!

Here is a close up so that you can see the dimension and texture the card has:

Owl Christmas Card

Happy Wednesday!

Today I am back with another project that showcases some awesome stamps and dies from 

Pink & Main. My project will also give you a little sneaky peek of a new set that will be coming your way very soon. 

I can not express how much I adore these little owls in the soon to be released set called, hOWLidays! Cute right?? Did I mention that there will be coordinating dies?? Love love love!!! I decided to make a tent topper style card. I love this style card. It really puts that super cute image front and center. That sweet greeting is also in the hOWLidays stamp set. That scallop strip came from the Scallop Borders die set.

Shopping Our Stash #268

Hey everyone and happy Tuesday!!

It's time for a new challenge over at 

Shopping Our Stash!

This week challenge #268 is....

Mary Had A Little Lamb

(use farm animals)

Here is the project that I created for this challenge:

I love all the animals in this stamp set from My Favorite Things. I did a little bit of masking to create my scene and then colored in the images with my Copics. For the sky and grass, I masked off again and used some distress inks. I added my greeting onto my clouds and then popped up the top set of clouds with foam tape. I adhered my image panel onto a piece of red patterned paper that I thought mimicked a bandanna and then adhered that onto my kraft card base.  

Items from my stash that are older:

--Summer Fresh Patterned Paper from Simple Stories (over a year old)

September Pink & Main Challenge

Hey everyone!

Is it really September???

The first of the month marks the start of a new challenge at the

 Pink & Main Challenge blog. Yay!!

The theme for the September challenge is......

Autumn

For the challenge you simply need to make a Autumn themed card, post it to your blog and enter by adding it to the inlinkz at the

 Pink & Main Challenge Blog.

Easy Peasy!!

Here is the card that I created for the challenge:

I colored the Scarecrow with my copics and used the coordinating die to cut him out. I thought it would be cute if he was sitting in front of a fence so I also colored the fence from the Sunflowers set and used the coordinating die to cut it out. I attached them to a piece of plaid paper that I had cut out using the Stitched Rounded Rectangles. I also used the stitched rounded rectangles for my yellow polka dot paper as well as my sentiment. The blue cardstock was cut with one of the scallops from the Scallop Borders dies. I finished off my card with some glossy accents and some doodles here and there with my white gel pen. 

I hope you will create a project and join us for the 

September Pink & Main Challenge!!
