Having Fun With Mr. Rabbit

 Hi everyone! It's been a long minute since I last posted. With so much going on over the last couple of years I had to take some time away from crafting and sharing. I have SO missed being in the community learning and sharing. 

Today I'm sharing a tag I created while watching the replay of Tim Holtz's last video. I wasn't able to watch it live, but am so glad I went back. In case you missed it, here it is. 


I used mostly all of the same products that Tim used, except I did change a color or two. The distress world has always been something I want to really get into but have such a hard time figuring out color combos and what products work best. Watching his videos has been a huge help. 


I am in love with Mr. Rabbit. He is so sweet and very dapper. I can't wait to see what others have come up with. 


I haven't quite decided if I am going to make a card out of this tag or use it as a bookmark. I can already see he would make me smile each time I opened my book.

LAWN FAWN CHALLENGE #103 LITTLE THINGS


 Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing a fun card for the latest Lawn Fawn challenge.

(click photo to go to challenge)

I decided to make a Christmas card lol. I was looking through my tiny images and the tiny Christmas and tiny gingerbread called out. I haven't used these two sets yet, so why not!


I cut out the foursquare backdrop out of white cardstock. I used crackling campfire and firebrick to create the main piece. For each little square I used salvaged patina, speckled egg, kitched flamingo, and rustic wilderness distress oxide inks. 


 After adhering the little square backgrounds in I sprayed the whole panel with water and blotted it off with a paper towel. Once it dried I was able to add my colored images. 


For the "floors" I cut out another foursquare panel. Using just the inside pieces I cut the bottom using the hill from sandy beach accent dies. I colored them each in and adhered them to the panel. 


I finished the card with some Christmas colored twine. I really enjoyed playing along!

JINGLE ALL THE WAY TAG

 Hi everyone! I'm here to share a fun tag I made. I used a few different techniques on this one. I wasn't to sure about it at first but I really like it now that it's all finished.

I started out by using a peppermint stencil on the background, following it up with a Merry Christmas and dotted stencils in different distress oxide inks. 

I used the new presents die from Tim Holtz and cut out so many presents lol. I have quite a few left over. I see some birthday cards in my near future. 


I finished it off by layering the presents on the tag and then adding some washi tape in sparkle and word type. For the main image I used two different distress embossing powders mixing them slightly to get a nice blend. 

Supplies: Tim Holtz unless otherwise stated

DIES: arctic & tree line thinlit dies, gift wrap bigz die

INK: crackling campfire, rustic wilderness, and blueprint sketch distress oxide inks, embossing pad

Stamp set: bold tiding 3

Stencils: buuble, peppermint, and merry christmas

Accs: christmas label tape, designer tape tidings, crackling campfire & rustic wilderness embossing glaze
