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.

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.

Let It Snow? Foiling with Creative Vision Stamps

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with Creative Vision Stamps. 
Most people do Christmas in July, well I decided to do Christmas in June and July, so every other post this month and next will be using the Christmas Tags Foilables sets. 

For this project I used the "Let it Snow" from the Christmas Tag Foilables. I used Razzle Dazzle Foil. The background paper is from the Penny Black 6"x6" Festive & Frosty paper pad. I thought the purple in the baubles in the background went well with the Razzle Dazzle Foil.

For this project I used the Swingline Inspire Plus Laminator. I let the machine heat up for about 30-45 minutes before putting my foil pack through it, I then turn the image 90* and run it through again. I let it cool and use my bone folder to burnish the foil before pulling the foil off the image. 

I hope you have enjoyed this project today. Please be sure to take a look over at Creative Vision Stamps and see all the other amazing Foilable products available, as well as the stamps in Clear and Red Rubber.

Happy Easter with Lawn Fawn and White Rose Crafts

Greetings friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with my Saturday post with White Rose Crafts. 
Let me tell you how much I love Lawn Fawn and their little fun characters and stamps. I am so happy to be able to play with them this week and bring my project to you. 


In making this project which is an A2 size 4.25" x 5.5", I started out by stamping the images from the Lawn Fawn Easter Party stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black and cut with the Scan n Cut. I them moved over to my Big Shot and a tag die set from my stash to cut the makings of the tag on the right side of my card. I knew I wanted a shaker as part of my project and figured that would be the easiest way to do it. 
I then colored all my little fun costumed kids with the following Spectrum Noir Markers. 
Bunny- IG1, AP1, IG2 and a Marvy Snow Marker for the tail which I then heat set.
Chick- OR1, OR3, Chameleon Marker YO2 (Mellon Yellow)
Flower- LG2, LG3, DG1, PL1, LV1, HB3
Faces- FS1, FS2
Hair- TN1, TN2, TN3
Basket- Chameleon BR2 (Hot Cocoa)

In the shaker tag I used Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blend in Citrus Twist. 

The background of my card panel and inside of the tag is colored with Distress Oxides in Broken China, Lucky Clover and Cracked Pistachio. 

I hope you have enjoyed this projects today. Please see the great products available at the White Rose Crafts online store.

Sending Hedgehugs from White Rose Crafts

Greetings friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here today with a clean and fairly simple card using the Sending Hedgehugs stamp set from Lawn Fawn. This and many other fun sets can be purchased at White Rose Crafts.

In order to make this card I first used a stitched circle die to cut out my red circle. I used double side Adhesive Sheets to adhere the circle to my light pink panel. I then cut the panel to 4"x5.25" and using a Darice Embossing Folder and my Big Shot I dry embossed that panel to use as my topper. 

From there I stamped the Hedgehogs using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, and colored using Desert Sand and Rich Chocolate Memento Markers. I then used the matching Dies to cut out the images.

Using a Spellbinders rectangle die I cut a panel using white cardstock and stamped the "Sending Hedgehugs" sentiment using the same Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

All paper in this project is Recollections, the white is 110 lb, pink/red is 65 lb.

I hope you have enjoyed this project today. Please see the great products available at the White Rose Crafts online store.
