Lately, I have been thinking about how grateful I am for my family. How blessed I am to be apart of this world and the community that I live in. Lawn Fawn featured a special stamp set called, “Say What? Masked Critters”. My family is essential. People wearing masking are essential. I am hopeful that we will get past this pandemic together.

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 made this card on Monday but I was not happy with details that make a card special. After thinking it over, I decided to do redo the card by giving it more layers. Using Over the Mountain stamps has three meadows in it, so I created three meadows. In addition, I added the car and the house from Snow Globe Scenes stamp set to create. It reminded me of time we took the family skiing in Denver, Colorado.
Winter Dragon has just one dragon. I was able to get the opposite version of the dragon by stamping it on Mini Media Mat by Waffle Flower and then pressing paper to it. I outlined the dragon with Pigma Micron black in and cut it out by hand. Some card makers call this process ‘fussy cut’ because it is easier to use a die cut. But since there is no opposite dragon and matching die cut , I did it by hand.
