MFT Card Challenges Sketch #256

Hello there!  A big thank you to Susan, and the amazing designers over at the Card Challenges blog this month.  I love how sketches give you that starting point when you are in need of inspiration.  Today I am sharing a card, based off of sketch #256.  Make sure you head on over to the Card Challenge blog to participate in all of the fun, and maybe win a prize! I did not have feathers, so I used stamps from the MFT Cat-itude Stamp set, to recreate the feathers lined up.  I just used fish & cat stamps instead.  Once I stamped the images I colored them in using copic markers. supplies MFT Cat-itude stamp set Blending Card by X-press it MFT Black Licorice Hybrid Ink Pad Foam Tape other sparkly kraft card stock pink card stock twine copic markers

Lawn Fawn: Finishing Up October Inspiration Week

Image
Hello there! For some reason my last two posts did not go live when they were supposed to.  I apologize for that.  So here are a few more of my Lawn Fawn projects for October. Make sure you check out all of the great inspiration the design team created over at the Lawn Fawn Blog , there really are some spectacular projects!! For the cheers card, I diecut the mini snowflakes in different colors, then picked out coordinating ink to match.  I added the ink to the card front and then adhered the snowflakes.  To add some contrast I diecut the scripty cheers in black and finished it off by adding twine. So, Lawn Fawn finally created a die set that coordinates with the Cozy Christmas stamp set.  This is such a fun set to work with, especially now that I don't have to fussy cut all of these cute images out!
