I've Heard... Picket Fence and and Scrapping For Less

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with a project I had a lot of fun creating.

This Picket Fence "Sympathetic Unicorn" stamp set came in perfect timing. I had a coworker who has been down a bit lately, not like herself. While at work the day after this stamp set arrived I started thinking about what I could do, and I came up with this card. The next day it was on her desk when she arrived and now it hangs on her corkboard.

To make this cute card, I first stamped the Unicorn and Cloud out with Gina K Designs Black Amalgam Ink. I knew I would be using Alcohol Markers and this is a safe ink to use. I alternated colors with my markers to color the mane in a rainbow scheme.

The sentiment is stamped inside the card using the same Amalgam ink.
The background pattern paper sheet is from Bo Bunny "Believe" collection.
I stamped the sentiment on a sheet of vellum using the Amalgam ink and heat embossed using Nuvo Jet Black embossing powder. Using strategically placed liquid Multi-Medium Matte under the sentiment, cloud and unicorn
I was able to adhere the Vellum without it being seen. I finished the card off with some "Love Potion" Nuvo Dream Drops.

Hello Spring, So glad you have joined us

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with 2 cards I made using the Echo Park "Spring Showers" stamp set and some items from my stash.

 For this first card I stamped out my images, cut them and colored using Alcohol Markers. I decided then to use the Lawn Fawn Shadowbox Die set and create a fun card. I used GinaK Amalgam Ink to stamp my images as I knew I would be using the alcohol markers, and ScraPerfect "Best Glue Ever" to adhere my images within the card.

This card was so easy to making using the GinaK Designs Wreath Builder. I used the small images from the Spring Showers stamp set and repeatedly stamped using the wreath builder and my Tim Holtz stamp platform. I colored the images using my alcohol markers, cut 2 circles using  a set of dies from my stash and stamped the Hello Spring sentiment using GinaK Amalgam ink. I used foam to pop up the sentiment panel, ScraPerfect glue to adhere my layers together and with that my second project was complete.

Your Own Kind of Beautiful with GinaK and Scrapping For Less

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, Spring has arrived and I am excited to share two Spring Time cards I made today using GinaK Designs "Your Own Kind of Beautiful" stamp set I really love this stamp set and could not just stop with one card.

With this first card I stamped out the cacti and cut with my Brother Scan N Cut. I then used a banner die to cut a shelf. I used Distress Oxide in Cracked Pistaccio and a blender brush to make a background.Using Artist Loft Markers I colored up the images and after using stitched rectangle dies and ScraPerfect glue to put my layers together, I used foam tape to pop up the shelf and this card was complete. 

I decided I needed a little more fun with this set, and this bicycle reminded me of one I had in high school. Using paper from a 6x6 paper pad for my background and a Spellbinders window die,  to make this scene work. I colored the image with Artist Loft markers and adhered my layers using ScraPerfect glue. The bicycle is adhered using foam tape for pop.

Season;s Greetings from Scrapping For Less

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with a project I made using Lawn Fawn's Simply Celebrate Winter Stamp Set.

This stamp set is so adorable with its gifts, gingerbread cookies, trees, snow people, ornaments, winter village and the Season's Greetings" sentiment. With all the cute items it was quite hard to decide what I was going to use for this project, but after thinking I came up with a fun idea. 

I used a pre-made card base from my stash, and a panel that fits the top of it, I used Distress Oxides in Broken China on the sky and a combination of Lucky Clover and Twisted Citron for the ground. My stamping is all done with my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 

My coloring is all completed using Chameleon Markers in various colors.

I used Nuvo drops in Woodland Green and Autumn Red on the Gingerbread kids buttons. I used my Black Glaze pen on the eyes. I used Nuvo Crystal Drops on the rooftops and tree tops to simulate snow. 

This project was fun and I am so happy to share it with you today.

Inspire Dream Create with Pink & Main

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with my Design Team project using the Pink & Main “Inspire” stamp set. This set is great and since I do love butterflies I knew was I was going to do right away. First I positioned the stamps on my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform and used the Bouquet Kaleidacolor ink pad to ink up the spray of butterflies, and Onyx Black Versa-fine Ink to make my stamp impressions. Once the Butterflies were stamped at the colors I wanted, I cleaned my stamp and stamped everything again using Versa-mark clear watermarking ink. I followed this up with Clear embossing powder and used my heat tool to set it. I  used Pale Periwinkle and Key Lime Nuvo Jewel Drops, although unfortunately one splotched on me (Desiree I need a Nuvo class)!!! I used paper from the March Flavor of the Month kit to layer my card panel on my base.

Hope you liked my project today.
