Lawnscaping Challenge #38

Lawnscaping Challenge #38



There is a photo challenge this week at Lawnscaping. There are so many ways to go with this photo and it took we a while to figure out what I was going to do. In the end, I decided to take my inspiration from colors of the balloons and banners.



The flowers and leaves from Flutter By were stamped onto Neenah Solar White cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I then colored everything in with some copics.

The banner was cut out with a Lifestyle Craft die. Using Clair's ABCs and Memento Tuxedo Black ink, I stamped out the sentiment. I colored the whole banner with one of the copic markers.

The sentiment was mounted to the flower panel with some dimensional tape and that was set onto a card base from Hero Arts.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Let's Get Fruity

I am back!

Simon Says Stamp challenge this week is Let's Get Fruity! and here is my take:



The background is the lemon image from Lawn Fawn's Make Lemonade stamp set stamped all over with VersaMark ink and embossed with clear embossing powder onto a card from Hero Arts.

Then I stamped the lemon three times and colored in with a Memento Daffodil marker. After they were cut out, I went around the edges with the Memento Tuxedo Black marker. To give a little dimension I used some glossy accents.

The words were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and the alphabet stamp set is Clair's ABCs by Lawn Fawn.



The inside of the card was stamped with the "make lemonade" sentiment and pitcher of lemonade. I colored in the picture using a blender pen and some Memento Daffodil and Sky Blue markers.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
