Hi all! For some reason Blogger won't let me comment if the comment box is embedded into your posts so please dont think I am being rude - I honestly cant comment on your wonderful creations which is soo frustrating! I can only comment if the comment box opens a new window. Hopefully all will be fixed soon! Rach :) x
I'm back with a Valentines Day card I made for my sister. She's single at the mo and I didn't want her to miss out but I also didn't want it to be a soppy lovey card so when I was looking through my stamps the Lawn Fawn Heres the scoop set was perfect!
I followed yet another old Retro Sketches sketch and some papers from Doodlebug Sweet Cakes pad.
I coloured the ice cream with Flex and Promarkers then cut it out and stuck it on with foam pads.
A little side view to show the dimension :)
What I used:
Pure Poppy cardstock for base
Lawn Fawn Stamps
Flexmarkers and Promarkers
Doodlebug Designs Sweet Cakes Pad
Button and twine from stash.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
I'm slowly working my way through the goodies I got at Christmas ( you can see the video HERE) and as there has been sun today, yes I did say sun not a swear word!, I decided to practise my colouring.
Very pleased with the hair which is what I need to work on the most.
I love TGF as I always have so much fun colouring them in and this 'Big Anya' was no exception!
She's just so pwetty! I'm pleased that the glitter actually shows up on the photos lol!

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas. Mine was spent with the family at my Aunts house who *quoting my 83 year old Gran* had been flapping about the turkey all morning he he he! We all ate far too much but had a wonderful day.
Well I just about managed to make enough Christmas cards! I got totally sick after the third one lol so I'm quite pleased to be seeing non-Christmas cards popping up in my blog reader :)
I thought I would share a few I made using my new Lawn Fawn stamps and have included a haul video I made of my Lawn Fawn splurge I had a few weeks ago.
This card was made using Lawn Fawn's Sweet Christmas set. I stamped each Gingerbread person and added the little details such as the bows, buttons and hearts etc. I then coloured them using PMs, cut them out and popped them on some foam pads. the sentiment is also from the set. I then decided some bling was needed and added tiny little gems to each Gingerbread person.
This took some doing lol as there is only one mini Gingerbread person in the set so it took some lining up. Again coloured with PMs. I added the button details to add interest and coated the sweets in stickles to make them look sugary.

This is my haul video of my Lawn Fawn stamps. I am obsessed with the sets that include characters with cute faces!! Lol.
So there you go. I have one more card Id like to share but Ill leave that for another day. Im off out to meet friends as we never get to see each other now we are all grown up with proper full time jobs lol!
I kinda went overboard with new stash buying so I might make another video to share all the goodies I have found!
Hope you enjoy the rest of the holidays and stay warm and dry where ever you are in the awful weather that is going on at the minute.
The challenge over at Less is More this week totally inspired me which is really what I need right now! However I was inspired to make more baby cards rather than the Christmas cards I desperately need lol oh well!
I used the rattle and sentiment from Lawn Fawn's Plus One set and the heart from their Silly Valentine collection.
I had the idea to use a star on the boy card but I don't have any :( an excuse for more stamps me thinks!
I used the same layout and stamps for a girl version but coloured the heart in a darker pink as when I tried red it just didn't work.
I also used a stardust pen to colour the little white sections of the rattle and wish I hadn't oh well I'll learn from my mistakes!
Sorry the photos arent great it was very difficult with the light and so much white!
Right well only two weeks left at school with my Reception class than I will be unemployed as the maternity cover ends :( will defo miss the little monkeys!
