A Mole lot of Love - Part 1

Hi there,

a few months back I saw a beautiful card by Rachel Alvarado using the Lawn Fawn A Mole Lot of Love and the A Mole Lot of Love Add-Ons stamp sets and I instantly new that I had to recreate this card:

• stamp images from the Lawn Fawn A Mole Lot of Love, the Lawn Fawn A Mole Lot of Love Add-Ons and the Lawn Fawn Gleeful Gardens sets with Lawn Fawn Jet Black
• color the images with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• stamp the sentiment from the Clearly Besotted Stamps Many Mini Messages set with Distress Oxide Ink Pumice Stone
• cut out rounded stitched rectangles
• create a background with Distress Ink Pumice Stone and Tumbled Glass and the My Favorite Things Mini Cloud stencil

Next week I will show you my own take on it.

Hugs,

You Are the Only One for Me

Hi there,

it's Inspiration Week over at Mennys Bastelshop and this week our topic is "Embossing Folder". I used the Purple Onion Designs Allie Kitty on Rock stamp set on my project:

• stamp the adorable Purple Onion Designs Allie Kitty on Rock with My Favorite Things Extreme Black onto a rounded rectangle from the Stitched Rounded Rectangle STAX die set
• color the image and the background with Ohuhu Markers and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
• create a background with an embossing folder
• stamp the sentiment from the Clearly Besotted Stamps Deep Blue Corners set with Versamark onto a strip of torn vellum and heat-emboss it with Distress Embossing Glaze Salvaged Patina

I hope you got inspired to give some love to your embossing folders.

Hugs,

Happy Birthday Bunny

Hi there,

I created this card for Mennys Bastelshop using the Mama Elephant Lil Birthday Docket and the Mama Elephant Docket Lil Banners:

• cut out two banners using the Mama Elephant Docket Lil Banners - one from colored cardstock and one from patterned paper
• stamp one of the bunnies from the Mama Elephant Lil Birthday Docket set with Lawn Fawn Jet Black
• color the image with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• stamp the sentiment from the same set with Brilliance Thyme onto a strip of colored cardstock and ink up the edges with Distress Ink Peeled Paint 
• create a background using kraft cardstock, the Pinkfresh Studio Hexagon Tile Cover Plate and splatters of watered-down Distress Paint

Have a colorful day.

Hugs,

Hi there,

I created this sweet tag for Mennys Bastelshop using the Lawn Fawn Valentine Mice:

Have a wonderful day.
