Penguin Winter Scene Card featuring New and Old Lawn Fawn Products

kittieslovecrafting

Hello friends. This cute scene card was created using some older Lawn Fawn dies with their new holiday collection. I used the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop die which came out for Halloween as the forest on this card. I combined it with the new Peppy Penguin and String of Lights Backdrop dies to create this cute scene.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create an A2 card base. Then die cut the backdrop from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Lawn Fawn Spooky Forest Backdrop and the hillsides from Simon Says Stamp WHITE GLITTER 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Stitched Hillside Borders. I also cut a piece of Lawn Fawn Candy Cane Lane 6×6 Inch Petite Paper Pack to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″.

I die cut the strings of lights from silver cardstock from the Tim Holtz Metallic Idea-ology 8 x 8 Metallic Kraft Stock Paper and the bulbs from Tim Holtz Metallic Idea-ology 8 x 8 Metallic Jewels Kraft Stock Paper and Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ for the lightbulb backs. I cut off the individual strings and added them separately. I saved the outside silver border to add to the card.

I die cut the little penguin from Simon Says Stamp 100lb Black Cardstock, Simon Says Stamp Cardstock 100lb Slate Gray, and Stampin’ Up! Pumpkin Pie 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock. I popped up the spooky forest and one layer of the hillsides using 3M Foam Tape for added dimension.

For the penguin’s hat, I stamped the hat from the Lawn Fawn HATS OFF TO YOU Stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored it with Copic markers. I used R17 and R29, C5, C7, and C9.

I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter Stamps
onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink.

I left the inside of the card blank.

Stenciled Background St. Patrick’s Day Card

Simon Says Stamp and Scrapbook.com

Hello friends. Here’s a quick but very cute St. Patrick’s Day card featuring Simon Says Stamp’s Wooly Lucky Stampset (this came out last year I believe). It’s a very simple card with a subtle stenciled background. I love using stencils for backgrounds because it makes it so quick. And who’s got time to make complicated backgrounds these days?!? Not me.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base and a piece from Neenah 80lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. I used the Scrapbook.com Shamrocks 6 x 8″ Stencil with Catherine Pooler Garden Party Ink to create the background. I die cut it with the largest dot die from Catherine Pooler’s Scallops & Dots Dies which measures 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″.

I stamped the llama and two rainbows from the Simon Says Stamp’s Wooly Lucky Stampset onto some Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black.

I colored the images with Copic colors. I used W0, W1 & 0, R20, & C7 for the llama; G07 & G09, C7 & C9, Y15 & Y17 for the hat and bow; YG03 for the shamrocks; YG03, YG17, G07, Y15 & Y17 for the blanket; R17 & R27, YR04 & YR07, YG17 & G07, B02 & B04, BV08 & BV17 for the rainbow; and BG000 & 0 for the clouds. I fussy cut all the images.

I stamped the sentiment from the from Lawn Fawn Hats Off to You Clear Stamps onto the card panel with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, then using my MISTI stamped over it with Versamark Ink, heat embossed it with Ranger CLEAR Embossing Powder.

Before adhereing the images to the card panel, I cut a piece of Tim Holtz Idea-ology 8 x 8 Paper Stash Metallic Jewels Kraft to 3-1/2 x 4-3/4″. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the llama.

I finished the card by adding Nuvo Crystal Drops – Metallic Bright Gold.

I left the inside of the card blank and just added two images I had previously stamped from the same stamp set.
