Dino-Mite! - Lawn Fawn

Hello crafty friends! Just a few quick cards I whipped up for my local shop here in Chicago; Craft Fancy. I just love playing with the dino sets from Lawn Fawn. This has both Critters from the Past (Tree ) and Rawsome. I used the new Spiffy Speckles petite paper in purple for the bottom layer and some distress oxide in dried marigold.

Everything Dinos! - Lawn Fawn

I was beyond excited to see more Dino stamps from Lawn Fawn. I absolutely love Dinosaurs ever since I saw Land Before time as a child. I think I got my sass from Cera si I of course had to use the puny sentiment for her.

The sky, grass & sand are all the new Spiffy Speckles paper from Lawn Fawn. Its absolutely perfect for scene setting! The water is some distress oxide in peacock feathers and die cut with die from Bayou Backdrops. The sentiment is distress oxide in mermaid lagoon and I stamped it on the new Fancy Wavy Banners. All my images were stamped using antique linen distress ink and then colored using Tombow Dual Brush markers. They were blended using water and a paint brush. I am loving how this no line adventure turned out. What do you think?

The Biggest Wishes

Biggest Wishes - Dino Shaker Card

When I first saw this set, Critters from the Past, I wasn't sure if I was going to get it. I was never a huge Dinosaur fan. But these dinos are just so stinkin cute!! I am so very glad I did end up picking this up and I even went back for the dies because I have used it so much.

Yesterday & the day before I went out and got a couple sets of basic copic colors as well. I stamped a bunch of this dino out on some cheap 110 lb cardstock. I tend to have a heavy hand when coloring with my copics right now so I destroyed a sheet of Neenah solar white. I used B00 on the body and shaded in B23 & the darker dots I did with B05. The tealish dots I did BG15. None of these colors wanted to blend really well for me, but touching tips really helped me smooth it out.

Using my square dies I cut out the middle of a rectangle to make a Polaroid that was just big enough to fit a Shake It pouch. I filled this with the new sequins from Lawn Fawn sequin packs. I adore the flower sequins which I added around the pouch for added bling factor using glossy accents.

All this was layered onto some Into The Woods paper from Lawn Fawn that I still have (in fact I bought three 6x6 pads because I love it so much). I liked the tone on tone color of the green dots from this pack, they competed less with the frame.
