‘Let’s Party!’…

Hi there! Yesterday my children went back to school so now it’s time for me to get back into a more constructed routine – boo! Today I’m sharing this card that I made using Lawn Fawn’s Party Animal and Holiday Party Animal stamps and dies. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I LOVE Lawn Fawn! Their little critters are so cute! I coloured these little fellas using my Spectrum Noirs and used the following supplies:’Perfectly Plaid Paper’ – Lawn Fawn, MFT Die-namics – Inside and Outside Diagnol Stitched Square Die, Lawn Fawn Pink Lemonade twine, Big ‘n’ Spicy inkpad – Spice, a Tuxedo Black Memento inkpad and a white gel pen.

I made a mask and used a blending tool to create the circle in the middle as a backdrop to the characters and popped some foam pads on the back of them for dimension.

That’s it for today. Thanks for popping by and I hope you enjoy the rest of the week and have a great weekend – Karen 🙂

Lawn Fawn – Party Animals

Hi there! I’m back today with 2 cards that I have made using the Party Animals stamp and die set and Holiday Party Animal stamps and dies from Lawn Fawn – love these sets! Again, like my other cards previously this week, this features the Striped Backdrop die also from Lawn Fawn. The layout using this die has been the same every day but the cute critters have changed! Here I have also used the Speech Bubble Border die from Lawn Fawn which I think is great!

I also used ‘Lets Polka in the Dark’ papers by Lawn Fawn, black cardstock, green paper – American Crafts – Color Crush, orange cardstock from Lawn Fawn and Spectrum Noirs. You can see that I used the raccoon from Lawn Fawn Holiday Party Animal on the orange version just to mix it up a bit!

That’s all from me for today so thanks for popping by again! Tomorrow I’m back with a cute little critter from Mama Elephant’s Lunar Animals – another really cute set! Have a great day – Karen 🙂

‘Party Animals….’

Hello! Today I’m popping in with this card that I have made using Lawn Fawn’s ‘Party Animals’ stamps and dies – aren’t they cute 🙂 I have had this set for a while and just haven’t had a chance to have a little play with them until now! It was also nice to make a non- Christmas card to be honest! Every spare moment I have is making them at the moment and I really wanted to do something else – so I made this for my Brother’s bday next month from my kids. I actually saw a card on Pinterest which was by Melissa Bowden and CASED it. I really like the simplicity of it but just love how it turned out 🙂

I also used Spectrum Noirs to colour, Sizzix Banner Die, WRMK Cropodile and Grommets, ‘Boy Crazy’ by My Minds Eye and black and white grosgrain ribbon.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you have a great weekend, take care – Karen 🙂
