This was my very first time using Hello Bluebird products and I just love that little monkey! I also really love the way the tropical foliage looks cut from Cilantro cardstock and then ink blended with Jalapeno ink. I'm so loyal to Lawn Fawn that I rarely branch out into other companies but these were… Continue reading A Wild Birthday
I had a vision for this card when I ordered Lawn Fawn's summer 2020 release, and it did not disappoint. In real life I am no good at keeping plants alive but I love being able to create a quick batch of these for a card. They're so cute! It's been awhile since I used… Continue reading So Many Succulents
This card ended up looking a little more "simple" than I wanted; I wish I had added more detail to the sky or trees. It also bugs me that everything isn't perfectly centered, but in general I still get good fall vibes from it. Materials used: Lawn Fawn Puffy Clouds Border Lawn Fawn Simple Grassy… Continue reading A simple apple picking card

At the beginning of August I started a challenge for myself. I decided that for the next year, instead of buying new things, I'm going to try and use every stamp, die, stencil, and embossing folder I have. I took my inventory and split them up between months of the year to give myself a… Continue reading Variations of Fall
A simple fall card! I don't normally make cards like this where the scene doesn't take up the whole card. I like it as a different style! This was also my first card using the Just Stitching Double Rectangles and I loooove them. This was definitely a perfect card to use them on. Materials used:… Continue reading Campfire in the Mountains

This was my first desert-themed card and I am in love with how it turned out! The cacti are so fun and different from anything I've had on other cards, and the llama is so cute! I think the red and yellow layers make the blue sky really pop, and the cloud frames felt like… Continue reading Llama Tell You…
This card was inspired by a very old card made by Chari M. on the Simon Says Stamp blog. I just had to make my own card with a dog in a sweater jumping into a pile of leaves! To add the sweater to the dog I just stamped the dog on my patterned paper… Continue reading One Happy Pup

I saw a beautiful card on the Lawn Fawn blog months ago that I wanted to try to recreate. I didn't have all of the same stamps and stencils so I made do with what I had. I have to say, I don't love the way it turned out. This is what happens when you… Continue reading Party Kangaroo Baby Card
Here's a quick tip for how to arrange a stamp on a wavy banner so that it follows the curve of the banner: Start by laying your die-cut banner down face down. The side you will be stamping on should be touching your craft mat or surface. Next, place your acrylic block over your banner,… Continue reading How to arrange stamps on a wavy banner
I can't help but see the imperfections and the things I would change with this card, but I'm also excited about some of the new materials I used that I can't wait to use on future cards. 🙂 Copic marker colors used: Bird Y02, Y08 YR04 N2 Owl YR04 E30, E50, E55 E11, E13, E17… Continue reading Critter Concert

As a lover of all things adventure, I know for sure I'll be using that sentiment in many different ways in the… Continue reading For the love of fairy tales
This is a new Lawn Fawn set made for Ellen Hutson called S'more the Merrier. I was skeptical about buying it at first because I already own Lawn Fawn's Love You S'more set and I wasn't sure I wanted to spend money on a set with such a similar theme. I now kind of wish… Continue reading S’more the Merrier
For the very first time, I was actually counting down the hours until the Lawn Fawn summer product release. I set an alarm on my phone. I placed my order within minutes of it going live. Maybe it was influenced by quarantine and being stuck at home for so long with less going on, but… Continue reading Stitched Rainbow
This was the first card I made with this set and I had so much fun with it. I immediately knew what I would change when making another card but I still really like how this one turned out. The pull tab from the Let's Toast add on was a must for this cute alien… Continue reading Beam Me Up
It didn't take long for me to make another card with this set! This time I added a treasure map border: I'm much happier with how improved this card is even from the one I just made last month. The sand and waves have ink blended on the edges to give them more dimension and… Continue reading Ahoy, Matey! Part 2
