Have a Wild Birthday featuring Lawn Fawn

Today I have a video sharing my March birthday cards! These will be given to family and friends this next month as well as some Lawn Fawn Addicts birthday card group. I used Crafty Al's latest Show Us Your Sheet Load to inspire my design - I discuss more of that in the video tutorial below.

I will say that the patterned paper on my cards is very old and cannot be found, but there are a lot of tropical themed paper out there in the crafty world or you can make your own with stamps and stencils.

Watch the video down below and let me know if you have a birthday in March!

What Doesn't Kill You from Ink Road Stamps

I am back today sharing my latest Design Team project for Ink Road Stamps! I wanted to take a sentiment from the very snarky stamp set called What Doesn't Kill You and partner it with a pretty floral stamp set because who doesn't like sweet + salty?

The sentiment is embossed in silver powder on black cardstock and used black ink to stamp the Bella Flora stamp set. The flowers stamped on white are also colored in with some metallic watercolors so there's lots of shine!

You can see the process down below on my Instagram Reel or head over to TikTok if that's your jam.

Coloring a Valentine Robot from Lawn Fawn

I'm back with a new Color & Chat video today on my YouTube Channel. I used inspiration from the latest Craft Roulette Challenge as well as Lawnfawnatics Challenge and went with a Valentine's Day robot! It's pink and purple and oh so cute, don't you think?

Check out my video down below to see how I color my robot and then head over to my Instagram to save the coloring guide next time you're coloring a robot for the holiday.

I used my cutie robot along with a sentiment embossed in white on purple cardstock on an all white, square card to keep it clean and simple. I used dies to add texture to the white cardstock - adding fun while keeping it clean.

Did you play along with these challenges?

Up for an Adventure with Kindred Stamps

I have sold a few Valentine's Day cards this year of ones I've been making the past few weeks, but I got a request to make a themed card using my "Up for an Adventure" stamp set from Kindred Stamps. This is one of the sets I was able to snag when it came out of the vault and I just love how scene turned out using this set.

I went went a jungle paper packground, and then created the cliff scene using distress oxide and stencils that was die cut in a heart shape. After coloring the images and gluing them down, I know it needed some clouds so I grabbed my Lawn Fawn stamps and stamped out some small clouds to help the scene.

Finished it off with some neutral bling from my stash (you can see everything I used down below) and I think it turned out pretty darn cute! I hope my friend's card receiver loves it, too.

Bee Mine XOXO Tag Card with Lawn Fawn

You all know how much I love playing along with Craft Roulette and I almost didn't make it this week. I used mostly dies and my trimmer to create this tag and pocket card and an oldie but oh so goodie Bee Mine stamp set from Lawn Fawn for the "bee mine" sentiment and the cutie bee on the XOXO die cut.

The colors were complimentary + 1, so I used yellow, purple and green; an XOXO sentiement and a fancy circle - again lots of dies! I started this card about an hour before the cut off and was able to make it as well as take a photo so I could get it submitted. I used some adorable scrapbook paper for the yellow and bee inspiration that I have had FOREVER... I don't even know where it came from, so it's not linked below... Sorry!

Did you play along?

Rainbow-Infused Space Unicorn with Ink Road Stamps

I think this sentiment is the nicest compliment you can give to someone don't you think? "You're a rainbow-infused space unicorn!" I paired this cute critter stamp and the cursive font with the Basics: Hexagon stamp set to create a rainbow background to go with the sentiment.

The unicorn was white, but I added some rainbow fun to the space helmet and the card really pops with the metallic background and rainbow wheel clay bits! You can see how it all comes together on my Reels down below!

What do you think of the sentiment?

Halloween on the Last Day: Pastel Halloween Wreath Card featuring Pretty Pink Posh

My final new series on YouTube is a monthly Halloween video! Halloween is my favorite holiday and the holiday other than Christmas that I send lots of cards for, so I wanted to build up my stash throughout the year, too.

This first video should have been posted yesterday, but I completely forgot with all the other things (like Abigail's birthday and the EDS hop) so a day late, but still so cute and pastel.

I've made some pastel Halloween cards before and I just love the colors I used for this spider web and wreath card. Pretty Pink Posh has my favorite font for sentiments and with these cute images, I just adore how it turned out.

Are you excited to see more Halloween every month like me?
