Happy 50th

A sweet card for a sweet friend who just turned 50. I used all Mama Elephant products.

• Slimline Card Basics
• Celebration Hamsters
• Celebration Candles
• Flower Friends
• Sentiment came from Lawn Fawn - Scripty Sayings

1. Die cut a peach colored cardstock to create the frame.
2. Die cut a cream colored cardstock to create the panel.
3. Cut a base out of plain white card stock measured at 8 by 3 inches.
4. Using Kiddie Pool ink from Lawn Fawn, create a base for each character.
5. Adhere each image in the opening.
6. Stamp the sentiment.

Sledding By to wish you a Happy Birthday!

I managed to get my hands on this Lawn Fawn/Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember collaboration stamp set. I love it and worked perfect for a card for my teen nephew who lives in a cold climate and no longer appreciates "cutesy" cards. I used Lawn Fawn STITCHED MOUNTAIN BORDER Lawn Cuts and Lawn Fawn STITCHED HILLSIDE BORDERS Lawn Cuts to create the scene.

Heartfelt Birthday Card

 

I made this card for my skating loving niece whose birthday is close to Valentines Day. Most of the products came from MFT Stamps:

• MFT Stamps Hearts Entwined Die-namics
• MFT Stamps Dog image from BB Snow Buddies
• MFT Stamps Sassy Skater (girl image. Retired.)
• MFT Stamps Sentiment from Birthday Cutie (Retired)
• MFT Stamps Stiched Mod Rectangle STAX Die-namics 
• Lawn Fawn Everyday Sentiment banner die.
• Lawn Fawn "Yeti" Ink
• Stampin Up embossing powder in white
• Distress Oxide Ink in "Mermaid Lagoon" 

I used Distress Oxide Ink to create a background and various Copic Markers to color the little skater and her puppy. I also used a gel white pen to create a pattern on the skirt and the scarves. I hope my niece Lily will like it as much as I do.
