L40: Make a background

howdy!

Had some fun making this little gem.

Created the background using two stamps from Lawn Fawn's "Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum"

using white embossing powder.  I did two lines at a time.

Supplies:

Stamps by Lawn Fawn

Paper: cs by Bazzill and patterned papers by MME

Other: embossing powder, Spellbinders Wonky rectangles, Hemtique string, Fiskars punch

I am entering this card into the Lawnscaping Challenge #40: 

Make Your Own Background Paper
and Simon Says Stamp: Anything Goes!

All was well and good until I stabbed myself with the
stick pin I had in my bottle of Glossy Accents.

 And we're not talking a prick, but the thing was REAL deep and ached for a while.

So glad not to get any blood on the card after painstakingly making that background!

Thanks for looking... and be careful out there crafters, it is a dangerous game we play....

All of the sides are covered but I didn't photograph the others.

Birthday Daisies

Sharing a card I just love!

These MME papers go so beautifully together for this sketch.

I combined two challenges, one to use patterned papers and 

another to use a sketch and came up with this cutie.

I stamped the flowers on 3 different papers from the pad 

and glued them on top of the full stamped image.

I added a bit of shiny paint to accent the center of the flowers.

Here's the sketch from The Craft's Meow:

Our main computer is down and I had to take the photo with my iphone so it's a bit blurry.

DH has called an IT guy and we'll see.... ugh.  I had a lot of photos backed up but not the summer ones, but they may still be on my camera. Great picture of this card on there too..

thank you card featuring Lawn Fawn

HI there!

Sharing a "thank You" card I made for someone.

CAS look.  

Used Lawn Fawn's "On the Mend" flower vase and a 

Lawn Fawn "thank you" that was a freebie in one of my orders.

I scored the top and then embossed the "thank you" in white.

I used 3 different colored pink pencils on the flower and added a bit of Stickles.

I put  a touch of Glossy Accents on the vase.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
