Thankful For Each Moment with You with Avery Elle...

Hello everyone, happy Wednesday!! I am sharing this sweet fall-themed card using the adorable Fall Picnic stamp set from Avery Elle. I love the images in this set. 


I started by coloring the images from the set, and the tree from the Mr. & Mrs. Claus stamp set using Copic markers. I also used the tree from the Peek-A-Boo Christmas Train stamp set. 

Copic Markers Used: 
Y21, YR23, YR24, YR27, E99
G00, G02, G05, G09, G12, G16, G28, G85
E40, E41, E31, E55, E84, E87, YR30


I then die-cut the base layer for the card using the Basic Rectangles Creative die. I also die-cut a frame using the two largest dies from the set. Next, I die-cut a grassy border using the grass border from the Mushroom Border die set, and the hill border using the hillside from the Slimline Simple Stitched Hillside Borders set. I added color to the grassy border using Lucky Clover Distress ink, and Noble Fir Lawn Fawn ink. For the ground area, I used Brushed Corduroy, Gathered Twigs, and Ground Espresso inks. 


I then embossed the sentiment onto a strip of vellum using Versamark ink and white embossing powder.

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. I pray you each have a wonderful and blessed day.  Please feel welcome to visit me on my blogIG or Pinterest.

Hello from Toni: Avery Elle Holiday


Hello, everyone! It's getting colder and getting closer . . . to Christmas!  Have you been building a stash of holiday cards? I certainly have, including these using Avery Elle Christmas Critters.


Each card uses Lawn Fawn Let It Shine 6x6 Paper and Lawn Fawn Mini Snowflakes cut from the scraps.  The new LF Let It Shine Snowflakes 6x6 Paper is a perfect substitute.


I cut a vellum circle to anchor the deer a bit. So cute, isn't it?  I colored the deer up with Copics in keeping with the paper colors.  Frankly I was surprised I liked the beige paper color but it so works. But, of course, it does; it's Lawn Fawn!


For the second card I used the Mama Elephant Slim Card Basics to make the hill. Beige hill?!  Heck, yes!


On both of these cards, I love the glimmer of the foil on the cardstock and used Stickles to add additional bling.


I hope you enjoyed today's cards!  I'll see you again soon.  If you'd like to check out my other creations in the meantime, you can visit my blog, Frankie Helps Craft, my Instagram, or my Pinterest Board.

Fall-Themed Birthday Card with Lawn Fawn...


Hello everyone, happy Wednesday!! I am sharing this super fun autumn-themed birthday card. We have lots of birthdays this month, and I knew I had to use the beautiful Fall Leaves Backdrop die for this card. 


I started by die-cutting the base layer for the card using the awesome Simple Stripes: Portrait die. I also die-cut a coordinating tag using the Say What? Gift Tags die set, the frame for the card can be created using the Basic Rectangles Creative cuts die set. Next, I used the Fall Leaves Backdrop die to die cut the leafy border, and then I used the Giant Happy Birthday die to die-cut the sentiment. I added a bit of color to the blue cardstock areas using Lawn Fawn ink, I used Blue Jay and Deep Sea
For the orange/rust color, I used Pumpkin Spice, Chili Pepper, and Walnut


Next, I used the leaves from the Magic Iris Fall Leaves Add-on to decorate the coordinating tag. I used the 'for you' phrase from the Shutter Card Add-on die set for the sentiment on the tag. I then used the Fancy Wavy Banners die to die-cut the banner for the card. The sentiment is from the You Autumn Know stamp set. 

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by. I pray you each have a wonderful and blessed day.  Please feel welcome to visit me on my blogIG or Pinterest.

Hello from Toni: Mama Elephant Corner Flowers


Hello, everyone!  Today I'm sharing a couple of cards using the Mama Elephant Corner Flowers set. The images are so pretty!


My first card uses the Mama Elephant Leafy Cover with the Mama Elephant Oval Deco Frame as a centerpiece.  I had to nip off just a tiny bit of leaves to accommodate the oval.

I embossed the Pinkfresh Studio You Can Change the World sentiment on vellum and adhered it to the frame before adhering the lot to the card front.  


I added the watercolored Mama Elephant Corner Flowers and a few Lawn Fawn Mushroom House butterflies to finish the card.

Not one to waste an opportunity, I used the outer portion of the Mama Elephant Oval Deco Frame die to create a shaker border for the second card.

I stamped the Mama Elephant Wishing You sentiment on the card base with Versafine Onyx Black and added the Mama Elephant Corner Flowers on top of the shaker frame.

I hope you were inspired by today's cards.  I'll see you again soon.  If you'd like to check out my other creations in the meantime, you can visit my blog, Frankie Helps Craft, my Instagram, or my Pinterest Board.
