Lawn Fawn Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs Theme...

Hello and happy Friday everyone!!

I am stopping by to share a fun card I created using lots of Lawn Fawn goodies.

I was inspired by the current Lawn Fawnatics challenge:

I can tell you that the cards the design team and all of the amazingly talented crafters out there have been creating are out of this world!!! There is endless inspiration!!!

As you know I am a huge Disney fan...and I would have jumped at the chance to create another Disney themed card for this challenge, but to be honest I wanted to try a different theme.

One of our favorite movies to watch is Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs.

I thought it would be great to use that theme for this challenge.

I began my card by going through my Lawn Fawn stamp sets to see what images I would be using.

I adore the new stamps from the newest release. The taco from the Year Nine set and the mini food images from the Plan On It: Meal Planning set were perfect for this theme.

I also had to use the Magic Picture Changer and Add-On Die sets for this card.

I LOVE this new interactive die!!!

I am hooked!!!

This truly was an easy and fun card to create!!

Lawn Fawn has a tutorial available for putting the Magic Changer together and it is super simple!!

I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you today.

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by!!

Wishing you a wonderful and blessed day.

Pretty Pink Posh March 2019 Release Blog Hop....

Hello everyone!!

Welcome to Day 1 of the awesome

March 2019 Pretty Pink Posh Release Blog Hop.

This release is full of beautiful stamps and dies sets.

I created a couple of cards to share with you today.

The first card I created I used the beautiful Peacock Friends stamp set along with the coordinating dies which can be found here.

I truly enjoyed coloring the peacock images. I used Copic markers to color them in.

I began by coloring the green areas using my favorite green combination of G99, G94, YG17, YG03, YG01, and YG0000. For the blue area, I used B29, B28, B24, B21, B34, B32, B01, and B000.

Next, I heat embossed the lovely feather images on a piece of Bristol smooth cardstock using gold embossing powder. Then I added Fossilized Amber, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Blueprint Sketch Distress Inks to the same piece.

To finish the card I added a couple of splatters using black and white acrylic paint.

For my second card, I used the gorgeous Magnolia Flowers stamp and coordinating dies set along with the Beautiful Butterflies stamp set. I used the same Copic colors for my magnolias and butterflies: RV69, RV66, RV63, and RV52. To create the background for my card I added Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Blueprint Sketch, and Seedless Preserves Distress Ink to create the color I was going for.

The third card I created I used the wonderful Bold Butterflies Dies set.

I began my card by adding Tumbled Glass, Squeezed Lemonade, Fossilized Amber, Seedless Preserves, and Wilted Violet to create the background for the die cut butterflies.
