Happy 11th Birthday, Lawn Fawn! This is one of my favorite stamping companies. Not only do they have great customer service but fantastic products as well. Another reason to like Lawn Fawn stamps is because you can incorporate many sets into one card. As an example, I used Christmas stamp sets to make this birthday card. In fact, there were ten stamp sets that I used.

Stopping by with a Christmas tag that you can use as an ornament too. I am having fun with my color pencils. I created a scene using stamp from Lawn Fawn called Snow Globe Scenes.

Happy Wednesday! Today I am featuring Lawn Fawn’s Magic Iris Snow Globe, as well as Christmas Fishes. To make this card unique, I made it into a shaker card by using Little Things from Lucy’s Cards Splash embellishment.
Inspired by Lawn Fawn card challenge. This week’s theme is color inspiration, Lawn Fawn gives you a set of colors and you try to make a card using those colors.
Some products have been difficult to link. For example, Splash embellishment from Little Things from Lucy’s Cards, has been discontinued but you can find a ton of cute embellishments at her website. To make it easier I have included the link for you. Also, Heidi Swapp glittered and foil paper, I purchased Heidi’s paper back in 2015. I can not find a proper link, I can’t even find something similar to show you. However, I have included Heidi Swapp link to her website anyway. The paper is beautiful and deserves a proper credit when using.
Furthermore, the iridescent speckles that you see on the globe is from Hydra Colour. Elena is the owner of Hydra Colour and has been making handmade watercolors since 2017. Her handmade watercolors are creamy and vibrant. I used the watercolor called Neptune. Fair warning, if you are interested in purchasing this color, now would be the time to get it because her watercolors sell fast.

I am participating an exchange where you create and send a Christmas card, an ornament and a gift tag. Here are the two gift tags that I will be sending. Super easy to make.
One tag is colored with Copic markers and the other tag is colored in pencils. I just wanted to see what the colored images looked like on camera. I used a Uni-ball white pen to give the sky more stars. The Uni-ball white pen is my go to pen when I want to give an image a high accent. The glitter that I used is from Martha Stewart, called Sugar Cube Stars. I could not find it at Amazon. But any embellishment that you have can be added to a shaker.

I am a huge fan of Jennifer McGuire, a leading card maker in the stamping industry. On Jennifer McGuire Ink website, Jennifer made a video on how to use a laminating pouch as a shaker window. Jennifer demonstrated that you could use pigment inks to stamp inside a the laminating pouch to make a sturdy window for shaker cards. Having learned how to do this, I decided to see if I could use a laminating pouch and emboss it. Then I decided to colored the stamped image, in this case a Christmas tree , with Sharpies. I ran it through the laminating machine. To my surprise it worked well.
Instead of having a one sided shaker ornament, I decided to create a panel on the inside of the ornament and shaker on the front and back of the star. I’m such a visual person that I thought a short video might do more justice than writing about it. Nevertheless, I hope it makes sense.
