Hello everyone! I'm back today with a submission to the Lawnscaping Challenge Blog's challenge number 67, patterned paper craze. The challenge is to ue Lawn Fawn stamps with patterned paper. I love this sort of challenge because it allows you to have a lot of freedom in your projects since there aren't a ton of constraints. Here is the inspiration project:

Getting an early start on Christmas

Hello everyone! I was in the Christmas spirit and so when The Greeting Farm's Farm Fresh Friday Challenge was all about tags I knew right away that this was my chance to get a head start on Christmas! 

I have an incredible amount of paper scraps right now so in an effort to reduce the scrap pile I used only scrap paper for this entire project! I didn't break out any of my cutting machines to make this tag. I got everything from extra pieces that I cut last year. Here is what I came up with:

Here is what I used:

The Greeting Farm's Xmas Sweeties Ian

Copic Markers

Recollections patterned cardstock

Papertrey Ink and Core'dinations solid cardstock

Winter lace Cricut cartridge to make the snowflake (this was already cut in my scraps from a project I didn't make last year, score!)

Close To My Heart "A Holiday" stamp set with matching Cricut cut from the Art Philosophy cartridge

(also already cut in my scraps, yay!)

Tim Holtz tag as the base

Rhinestones and ribbon from my stash

I hope you enjoy it. Thanks so much for stopping by!

The Greeting Farm's Farm Fresh Friday Challenge

Hello everyone! Things have been a little busy lately but I finally got a chance to sit down and make a card to post. I made this card for The Greeting Farm's Farm Fresh Friday challenge.

Here is what I used:

The Greeting Farm Anya Digi

Copic markers

My Creative Time sentiment

Papertrey Ink cardstock

We R Memory Keepers patterned paper

The Greeting Farm Farm Fresh Friday Challenge

Hello everyone! I'm really excited about the card I'm sharing today. The Greeting Farm came up with a great challenge this week called "Getttin Wiggy With It". For this challenge your image must have no brunette, blonde, or red hair so it's time to break out the fun colors! I was really put outside my comfort zone with this challenge because I have NEVER colored these images with anything besides normal hair color. I'm soo happy that I was challenged to do this because I really love the results.

This is the first time I have used the trace feature on my Silhouette to cut around my digi stamps. I think the cut came out perfect around the stamp and it saved me the time of doing it myself by hand! I also took the extra step to break out my sewing machine to add some embellishment to this card. I think the Studio Calico wood veneer shapes added the perfect finishing touch. What do you think?

Here is what I used:

Copic markers

The Greeting Farm Valentine Anya Digi

patterned paper and sentiment from the Memory Keepers Love Struck stack

Papertrey Ink solid cardstock

Studio Calico Wood Veneer shapes

The Greeting Farm's Garden Variety Challenge

Hello again! This is my second post of the day. I was in a creative rut the last few weeks so I felt compelled to do more than just one card today.

This card was created for The Greeting Farm's Garden Variety Challenge. The challenge was to create a card that was clean and simple. I am the kind of girl who believes more is more when it comes to embellishments so toning it down was kind of challenging actually. I kept wanting to add glitter, or ribbon, or layers to this card. Here is what I came up with.

Here is what I used to make this card:

The Greeting Farm Cheeky Cherry Pie stamp

Scrappy Mom's Sentiment stamp from the Pinch and a Dash set

We R Memory Keepers Love Struck patterned paper

Papertrey Ink solid cardstock

Copic markers

rhinestones from my stash

I hope you like it. Thanks for stopping by!
