Happy Monday! - Flora and Fauna

 Happy Monday Crafty Friends! I have a pair of fun cards today! 

Todays cards are some CAS birthday messages perfect for anyone! I stamped the main sentiment with distress oxide inks in Salvaged Patina & Twisted Citron. Then I stamped the support sentiment and the image in regular black ink and boom, done!

Supplies:

Everyday Word Party, Stacked Birthday Word Set. Both from Flora and Fauna Clear.

Distress Oxide Inks in Salvaged Patina & Twisted Citron.

New Year New Get Cracking on Christmas! - January

Hello Crafty Friends! Thanks so much for joining me. Todays card is the first Christmas card of 2022! You should be arriving here from Jenn; a full list of participants is linked over on Jenn's Blog!  We have all been there; the holidays are over but you have a huge stash of unused supplies you just got that you'd love to give some love to! Well here's your chance to do so!! Jenn is hosting a YouTube live that would be the perfect time to grab some of those supplies and craft along with us. 

Todays card is with stamps from Flora & Fauna clear stamps; Fa la la llama & Holiday Word Party 2 set. 

I started with the background and actually a whole different idea for a card. I stamped out the Fa La La sentiment with various distress oxide inks in Kitsch Flamingo, Festive Berries, Pine Needles & Evergreen Bough. I then looking at the Llama set and saw the mini sentiment and I just had to use it! I then stamped and colored the Llama with Copics. This card would be very easy to reproduce to make multiples too.

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to catch Jenn's YouTube live. 

Get Cracking on Christmas - January

 

So Happy to be joining Jenn Shurkus from Shurkus.com for another year of Get Cracking on Christmas! Instead of packing away all our new holiday goodies we keep them out. Its never to early to get a head start on all those holiday cards. And if you are like me all of your hoard of Christmas cards is gone and needing to be replenished asap!

Also if you are like me, you still have tons of holiday stamp sets you purchased or got as gifts that you just cant wait to use! I actually stamped out a bunch of images from this Flora & Fauna Driving To The Holidays (its on sale, snatch it up!!) set as soon as I got it so they'd be ready to pop on cards when I had time to craft. I easily have enough left over images for another 10 cards. But here are two examples for you!

I stamped these out using Distress Oxide inks because I love the colors and how well they stamp solid images. No coloring today! 

Thanks for stopping by, see you next month. Don't forget to stop by Jenn's blog for a list of all the hoppers & tune in for her facebook LIVE event. I cannot wait! See you there!

Simple Thank You - Flora & Fauna

Hello Crafty Friends! Todays card is a simple one layer easy to mass produce 1 layer thank you card. I used this one for my sons Preschool teacher. 

I stamped the large brushstroke stamp with a pale ink from Lawn Fawn in Ballerina slippers. I then stamped the vase and leaves directly over top along with the sentiment. I added a tiny bit of shading with an R20 copic which was a good match for the ink. I added gold dots with a gold pen as a final accent on the vase. Just changing the colors and vase details can give you different feelings and looks.

Thanks for stopping by!
