Welcome Baby Claire Blog Hop

Hello!

Today the girls of Lawnscaping are hopping

to celebrate our own sweet Elise, who became a mama

to wee Claire Rebekah this past Tuesday, December 10th. 

You should have come from the lovely Elena's blog

where I'm sure she whipped up something incredible.

I wanted to make something extra-special for Elise,

so I decided to attempt my first ever tri-fold card.

I used Lawn Fawn's Critter's Down Under

and did a whole lot of paper-piecing to keep it

looking soft and girly.

I hope she likes it!

Next up is the talented Tracy's blog.

I'm sure she'll leave you inspired!

Congratulations, Elise, and welcome to the world

sweet baby Claire!

Fawntastic Day

Hey all! 

I'm here tonight with a card I made for the 

Lawn Fawn CHA 2014 Catalogue Challenge.

Obviously you know you have a patterned paper addiction

when you cannot find a single card you made in the last year 

that does not have any patterned paper on it!

That was one of the requirements, no patterned paper,

not even Lawn Fawn's, because they will be releasing new

collections that they want to showcase instead.

I tried to make a card inspired by Lawn Fawn's logo,

which meant going CAS - VERY unlike my typical style.

I think it turned out pretty cute though.

I used Into The Woods stamps and dies,

Critters on the Savannah, Sweet Christmas, 

and Milo's ABCs as well as the Quinn's ABCs dies.

I hope they like it!

Falling White Flakes

Happy Saturday!

Today I am here with a card share using the Stamp-It "The Snowflake"

exclusive set from Crafter's Companion.

This sweet baby was a bonus stamp with a $50 purchase a while back.

I white embossed it and then distressed it with Festive Berries

Distress Ink and then went around the edges with Fired Brick.

To finish it off, I added some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh

with a dab of Viva Decor Pearl Pen in the centers.

I still have lots of Christmas cards to make!

How are yours coming along?

I created two fun projects for you today.

Here's the first:

For this card I chose to showcase the Marshmallow

and Sparkling Clear sequins by making a shaker card.

I embellished it with my Winter Bunny stamp and die set

from Lawn Fawn, and papers from Lawn Fawn and Studio Calico.

I colored Winter Bunny in with my Spectrum Noir markers.

I would also like to link up this card to the current

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes.

For my second card I wanted to showcase the Classic Christmas

and Festive Holly-days sequins with the Pretty Patches Tree

stamp and die set from WPlus9 and papers from Lawn Fawn

and Studio Calico and gold tinsel lawn trimmings from Lawn Fawn.

I filmed a video of my process for this one,
