Baby Sea Card | My favorite things

Hello everyone! A friend of mine delivered her second baby and it's absolutely adorable. That's why I created a new baby card using My favorite things products.

First I wanted to make a background using greens and yellows - however, I didn't like it for this card. So I took another piece of white cardstock diecut it with the second largest of the 'stitched rectangle stax' and used tumbled glass distress oxide ink to add a soft blue to it.

I also diecut several pieces of the 'bundle of baby clothes' die set and used hickory smoke for the clothes. After adhering them to the background I decided to use images from 'gill friends' and 'beach buds' which I colored with Copic markers. I really don't know what fish have to do with a newborn but I thought it looked cute :)

I also added Nuvo crystal drops in morning dew and Nuvo jewel drops in sea breeze. Last but not least I stamped the congratulations from the 'splendid swans' set and chose a white cardbase.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have an awesome day!

Christmas in August #3 | Mama Elephant

Hi everyone! I created my third Christmas card this year (still cannot believe it ;-) ) using again many different Mama Elephant products.

For the background I diecut a piece of white cardstock with the 'all prettied up' die and used two of the 'landscape trio' dies and also the 'snow capped mountains' dies on the same piece of paper, so that I get a nearly one layer background. I used hickory smoke distress oxide ink for the mountains and cracked pistachio oxide ink for the sky.

Then I stamped the images from 'tandem ride', 'a beary Christmas' and 'a cookie Christmas' with Memento tuxedo black and colored them in with Copics. After die cutting the images I adhered them to the background and added the sentiment from 'mini messages'.

Last but not least I chose a light pink cardbase to match the colors of the scene.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a great day!

Lawn Fawnetics Challenge No. 34 | My favorite Place

Hello everyone! I am playing along the Lawn  Fawnetics Challenge No. 34 which is about favorite places. 

When I went through my Lawn Fawn stamps I saw the 'Sweet Friends' stamp set which is so adorable and I thought - who wouldn't like to live in a dreamy, sweet wonderland? :)

So this is defnitely an unreal destination but I liked the imagination.

I started by stamping a bunch of different images to create a sweet scene with Memento tuxedo black. Beside Sweet Friends I also used the sets 'rub-a-dub-dub' and 'So smooth'. Then I colored everything with Copic markers and diecut it.

For the background I used the largest of the 'stitched rectangles large' dies and added scattered straw and dried marigold disress ink. I used one of the 'simple stitched hillside borders' as a stencil too. To create a grass border I used one of the 'meadow borders' dies and peeled paint distress ink.

I also diecut some clouds from the 'pivot pop-up' die set and colored them in with spun sugar and milled lavender distress ink.

Then I adhered everything to the background with my favorite adhesive which is the Lawn Fawn Glue tube.

The sentiment is from the rub-a-dub-dub stamp set.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a relaxed day!
