A LAWN FAWN COUPON...


The new Lawn Fawn release has some great new sets.  I'm super excited to get my hands on one of them (Critters in Costume).    I made this 'coupon' for my friend for her birthday for a Lawn Fawn set!

Sweep those dust bunnies away...


I made this card for someone who helped me sweep the dust bunnies out of my garage.  The images are from Paper Smooches!!!

I have so many of these bunnies!!! :)

Amuse-bouche:
And now I have a quail.... I'm hoping I can keep her.  (I think I'm allergic to her)....
LOL

Her name is Botwin... after the characters on Weeds.

A new home....



This house set came from Penny Black.  My aunt moved from the house that my uncle built in the early 60's to a home up north (in Northern California).   I imagine it must have been very hard.  At least she will be living near her daughter.

Here's some images from the back yard porch (CLICK HERE)

Happy 4th of July!!!!

I had bought the "Ciara" stamp through Stampers' Best to participate in the June tutorial.  I didn't participate however, I had the best intentions....

Here is my card based on that tutorial which basically focuses on paper piecing.  I used the Lawn Fawn Blue Skies to make the stars (and Sakura clear glitter pen around the edges of the stars).  The paper is from Doodlebug!!! Oh My Stars. Love that paper. (I'm afraid to use it).

The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn and the background stamp is from Stampers' Best (for Operation Write Home).


Amuse-bouche:

My friend is SOOO crafty with everything she does--- Look at this cute stage she set up for her little girls.
SO Sweet!!!!!  :)


Happy 4th of July, everyone!!!




And here are the boys and Ezra. True to form, Ezra won't look at the camera!

Using my Paper Smooches stamp set and Lawn Fawn sentiment, I paid homage to my favorite dish... FRENCH FRIES!!!

LOL!

I can't wait until you see the photo! (No, it's not my motley band of fur balls... ).





Amuse-bouche:

I can't say enough how much I LOVE Fik-Shun.... Obsessed with his skilz.   I can't wait until he and Twitch do a duet!!!!

A motivational card....


This is very similar to a card I posted a few weeks ago, however this time, I used watercolor paper and stamped my fruit images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  Using my Tim Holtz Distress Pen Markers, I colored the images in and then used an aqua pen to blend them.  [I did use COPICS on the lemon rind and the seeds.]  The scale image and sentiment is from Alley Way Stamps!  The die cut is from Spellbinders.  The fruit is from Lawn Fawn.

(I like the watercolor background version of this card.)
