Sunshine and Rainbows Lawn Fawn Magic Iris

I love the magic iris die so much.  It is a littl fiddly but once you get the hang of putting it together, there is loads of fun to be had.

I had these dies in my stash and had never used them so a magic iris was perfect to break them in.



As you can see I misaligned the pull tab but it is fine and the recipent still loved it :)

I am sure one of her kids has managed to pull it apart by now but that is the joy of cards.

Thanks for popping by
See you again soon

Remake of a card I hated....

 Do you ever make a card and think it is passable but you just aren't happy with it?

That is how I felt with this card....


It was ok, but I just wasn't feeling the love for it.

So I gave it a facelift....


The new version is way more my style, although I am still not 100% percent happy.

Card uses Altenew Mega Greetings stamp and Thanks die
Catherine Pooler ink pads
Liquid pearls


Thanks for visiting,  see you again soon.

Sending Big Hugs with Lawn Fawn & Catherine Pooler

 Here I am back again..... months since last posting.

But I have so many cards to share that I should be able to post most weeks, even if I havn't made something new.

I am starting with 2 cards made with an old love, Lawn Fawn, and a new love, Catherine Pooler Inkpads.




I started the process for both cards by blending a piece of white cardstock with a rainbow of Catherine Pooler inks, once it was nice and dry I cut out the center with the Lawn Fawn big hugs die.
On both I have used Lawn Fawn images.

So those are the first cards from my long hiatus to share. 
See you again soon

Lawn Fawn Mousey Magic Iris Fun with Bizzy Becs

Hi, I am here with you today to share an interactive card with you.

I have been watching videos and looking at cards made with Lawn Fawn Magic Iris die quite a bit since it was released a while ago.
I had been umming and ahhing over whether to purchase it as it is a fairly high price point and I love stamps!
But curiousity finally got the better of me, and I bought it.
I LOVE IT!!!!!

Once I got over a few teething problems, like my mini glue dots being ancient and non sticky, the iris is so easy and so effective.

Here is the first card I made using the die....




Isn't it cute!!!!

And so easy peasy.

All items used on my card are available by ordering through Bec as a special order.

Items used:
Lawn Fawn Magic Iris Die
Lawn Fawn Magic Messages Stamp set
Lawn Fawn Dandy Day Stamp Set

Return Of Tilda The Pirate

If you follow me on my instagram page you will have seen that I stamped off some of my older images to make some cards with, if not, I stamped off some older images LOL!

One of the images was Pirate Tilda who had been languishing away in a dark drawer for too long.
I coloured her up with copic markers.

I then set about creating the scene.  I used Lawn fawn dies for the clouds and waves.  The scenery elements were stamped from My Favorite Things Party Like a Pirate. Also coloured with copics..

Thanks for popping by blog today and be sure to come back on the 25th for my Bizzy Bec's post :)

Have a great weekend 
Lou

Lawn Fawn - Sending Big Hugs!

 

Hi :)
I am here today to share a card I made with Lawn product for Bizzy Bec.
If you go to the store there are currently no items available in stock, however you can email Bec using the contact link to order items.   Bec hasn't listed any lawn Fawn products on the new site yet due to postage delays because of COVID-19



Which brings me to my card.  New Zealand is currently in lockdown doe to the Delta variant getting out into some of our communites.  Guess we were being a little too kind to everyone coming "back home" and let one through with positive results.

Anyway, I feel like there are loads of people out there at the moment alone in their bubbles that could do with a big hug.  I know that when my hubby comes home at night from his essential worker position I certainly need one after a day of dreaded homeschooling GAG!

I coloured the image from "Happy Hugs" with copic markers.
The die is "Giant Sending Big Hugs"

And that is about it, pretty easy, quick card.
Hope you all continue to stay safe, 
Hugs
Lou
