Sending Love your Way

Hi there,

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

• cut out one of the ModaScrap Stamps from smooth white cardstock
• add color to the background with the help of Distress Oxide Inks (Saltwater Taffy, Abandoned Coral)
• cut out the Lawn Fawn Scripty Hugs, add that same pink color and heat-emboss it with clear glitter embossing powder
• stamp two of the Lawn Fawn Valentine Mice with Lawn Fawn River Rock
• color the images with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos and highlights with a white gel pen
• cover a cardbase with patterned paper and ink up the edges with Distress Ink Peacock Feathers

Thanks for stopping by.

Deck of Cards - Set 8

Hi there,

over the next few weeks I would like to show you a project that I created for Mennys Bastelshop together with my so very talented daughter Emily. It was a gift for my son - a deck of cards. I used the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Card die set on each of them combined with different stamp sets from Mama Elephant, My Favorite Things and Lawn Fawn. Every week I will show you four cards. This is the last set.

• cut out the Mama Elephant Artist Trading Cards from smooth white cardstock
• add color with Distress Oxide Inks
• stamp images from the Mama Elephant Magical Wizards, the Mama Elephant Happy Hedgehog, the Lawn Fawn Dandy Day, the Mama Elephant Dandelion Wishes and the My Favorite Things Next to you sets
• color the images with Ohuhu Markers, add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils and highlights with a white gel pen
• assemble the cards

I hope you enjoyed this little series.

Hugs,
