Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. I had fun trying a little bit of rainbow grid masking using the Grid Stencil along with a sentiment from Besties.

Hi there! Today I have a fun interactive card to share using the Double Slider Surprise dies by Lawn Fawn. This was so fun to put together and even more fun to show my kids. I always get the “oohs & ahhs” when I show the interactive cards:)
For the images I used the Winter Skies set. I used the Landscape Stitched Hillside Backdrop die to create the snowy hills. I blended distress oxide inks in Mermaid Lagoon & Blueprint Sketch for the winter sky, followed by flicks of water, white acrylic ink & Licorice liquid watercolor.
I also used some of the Really Rainbow Christmas pattern paper on the card base & the Push Here set to label the pull tabs. I tried to make a video, but I was confusing myself at first trying to put the double slider together. Kelly does an amazing video explaining how to put one of these interactive cards together HERE.
I did manage to get my son, Charlie, to pull the tabs for me while I taped him with my phone just to show you the magic.
There is some incredible inspiration using the Double Slider dies HERE.
I do have a winner to announce from my My Favorite Things giveaway.
Congratulations Jackie Price!

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a fun project featuring the Critter Sweaters by Simon Says Stamp.
How fun are theses critters with their hilariously adorable sweaters? I used a the I Love Donuts set to stamp the circles onto the bear’s red sweater. Then I added Postbox Red Nuvo Vintage Drops to the centers of the embossed circles. I used Copics to add the rosy cheeks and accents to the critter faces.
For the kitty cat’s sweater I embossed a snowflake from Ornamental and added Bonnie Blue Nuvo Vintage Crops. Tonic Studios is having a Nuvember celebration this month highlighting their various Nuvo products each day on their Instagram feed. Today I’m featuring the Nuvo Vintage Drops. They are really unique in that they dry matte which is a fun look to try.
To frame the critters I used a large Nested Circle dies onto Soft Navy cardstock. I added a sentiment from Coolest Yulest using the Sentiment Label dies to create the sentiment banners. The pattern paper behind the critters is from Pinkfresh Studio.
Make sure and check out the Tonic Studios Instagram feed to see the fun Nuvo products being highlighted all month long! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello! Today I am sharing this project over on the WPlus9 blog featuring more of the Winter Collection.
To begin I embossed the snowflake image from Merriest Snowflake in clear onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock.
I painted over the embossed snowflake background using Liquid Watercolors in Sunshine, Key Lime, Aquamarine & Sapphire.
For the sentiment I used the Sending Cheer die. I die cut a few out of white cardstock as well as one one out of White Glitter Cardstock, adhering them together with spray adhesive. I embossed a coordinating sentiment from Merriest Snowflake in clear and blended Blueprint Sketch ink over the embossing so that it would match well with the painted background.
Here is a video to show you how I created this card.

Hi there! Just poppin’ in with a few fun projects especially for Halloween. I’m not much of a super scary Halloween type, but I do love a really colorful, festive and candy-filled holiday:)
I used some fun Halloween products from Simon Says Stamp.
This first card uses the Spider Web background cling, which I embossed in clear and blended Deep Purple over top. I die cut the Ghost Boo die and layered another underneath that was ink blended with Carved Pumpkin and Squeezed Lemonade. I LOVE the festive color contrast on this one.
This next card features the Bwahaha stamp & die set.
To begin I blended a background panel with Aged Mahogany, Candied Apple, Carved Pumpkin & Wild Honey. I stamped the haunted house from Bwahaha with Thistle, Hydrangea and Deep Purple. I inked up the moon with Lemon Chiffon, Duckling & Sunshine.
Hope you have a fun, safe and sweet Halloween! Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi there! Just popping in to share a fun project that I created using the Christmas Tree Stitching die.
I’ve been wanting to get into this whole stitching on cards thing for a while. This was an easy way to try it out without feeling too overwhelmed. I used the Chritmas Tree Stitching die and die cut it four times into a square panel.
I used eight different colors of floss to stitch the angled lines. For the sentiment I used the Thanks die. I die cut four of the “thanks” word dies and adhered them together with spray adhesive for dimension. Then I popped the stitched panel onto a Fog card base.

Hi there! Today I’m sharing this project featuring the Bright Lights stamp set over on the Mama Elephant blog.
To begin I stamped a couple of adorable reindeer images from Reindeer Games along with a strand of lights from Bright Lights. I maked off the reindeer with post-its and blended Distress Oxide inks in Worn Lipstick, Festive Berries & Squeezed Lemonade onto bristol paper.
After blending I flicked some water as well as Bubble Gum & Sunshine Liquid Watercolors. I removed the masks and colored the reindeer with Copics.
I stamped each of the light bulbs with Mama Elephant pigment inks and then added glossy accents to make them shine. I stamped the sentiment from Bright Lights and took a white gel pen to fill in the outlined letters.
You see that reindeer winking? That’s me winking at you:) Have a fantastic day♥
