Lawn Fawn Had me at Typewriter

Hello, crafty friends! If you are following me on instagram, then you know that my typewriter is always in the background of my photos, so when I saw that Lawn Fawn has this stamp set, of course I had to get it. Today, I am sharing a Valentine's card and here are the materials needed:

1. Lawn Fawn - Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up
2. Lawn Fawn - Shadow Box Card Theater Add-On3. Lawn Fawn - You're Just My Type  and coordinating dies4. Lawn Fawn - Love Poems and coordinating dies5. Copic Markers - N0, N1, N3, RV00, RV10, RV11, BG15, BG10, BG00
6. Scrapbook patterned papers - clouds, wood grain, lace, dots, or any pattern of your choice
7. Other materials - die cut machine, glue, rhinestones



Let's get started:
Stamp, color, and die cut the images from the You're Just My Type and Love Poems stamp sets. Stamp the sentiments onto the blank papers. Put aside for now.

Next, build the scalloped box card pop-up as directed. I used woodgrain pattern scrapbook paper to make the inserts for the box card. Find a beautiful pattern that you'd like to use for the curtains and run through a die-cut machine using the Theater Add-On die. Here I used a lace pattern. Also, you will need a sky or a background that will go behind the curtains. The measurement for that is 3.25 x 2.5 inches.

Then, you will need to cut a panel for the back of the box card, but it has to be taller so that the curtains can be glued higher. I used a 110 lb cardstock and the measurement is 6.25 x 3.25 inches. Line up this panel with the bottom of the box card and glue it onto the back. In the front of the card, glue the sky paper and put the curtains together.

It's time to create the adorable scene. The desk, typewriter, lamp, and the little mouse peeking behind a sheet of paper are glued onto the back insert. While the other mouse is glued onto the front insert.
To decorate the flaps of the box card, I used a typewriter stamp by My Favorite Things, but unfortunately it is no longer available. The bottom part of the box is decorated with dots paper in red.

Here are some substitutes for the scrapbook papers that I used:

1. For the wood floor, you can use brown paper and the Stitched Woodgrain Backdrop
2. For the curtains, I think any of the papers from Spring Fling Paper Pack would look great
3. For the clouds, you can make your own pattern using any of these dies or stamps4. Lastly, you can arrange these alphabets stamps in order and make your own alphabet background



I hope you enjoyed today's post! Have a wonderful day!

Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration

  Welcome to the Heffy Doodle and Gerda Steiner Designs Collaboration Blog Hop! Design Team members from both companies are sharing inspiration using products from both companies! For this fun collaboration, I made a slimline birthday card. To begin, I stamped, colored, and cut images from Gerda Steiner Designs - On the Table , On the Bookshelf and the new Heffy Doodle Popping By stamp set. I then cut the largest rectangle from the Heffy Doodle Stitched Slimline Trio Dies in white cardstock. For my table, I used the Ain't So Plaid Stencil and inked with Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. The top portion is ink blended with Tattered Rose and I splattered some black and rose gold acrylic paint for interest. I then white heat embossed the happy birthday sentiment onto a strip of black cardstock. Next, I adhered the elements down onto the card. Lastly, I adhered my panel onto a slimline card base.

3D Paper Christmas Trees - Pretty Pink Posh

Hello and welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh October Release Blog Hop!!! Hello crafty friends! I have made the cutest 3D paper Christmas trees using the Pine Trees dies and I'm very excited to share some tips and tricks for making these trees. The Pine Trees include 3 different sizes and I was able to cut 4 of each from an 8.5" x 11" cardstock. The work is tedious, but the end result makes it all worthwhile. Just enjoy the process ;) Once all the pieces are cut, simply score in half and glue one side to the other. The more trees you add, the fluffier it gets. Here is my first tip: use a binder clip to keep the trees in place while the glue dries. I used 10 trees each for these pink ones: I cut some snowflakes from the Winter Mug dies and used them as tree toppers. How about some pretty, pink, posh ghosts? (You like what I did there? Hehe) The ghost die cut is also included in the Winter Mug dies. You can add a little bit of glue or just tuck it in-between the pages of the ...

October Release 2023 Blog Hop - Pretty Pink Posh

 Hello and welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh October 2023 Release Blog Hop! For my card, I started out with a light blue cardstock that measures 4.5 inches square. I stenciled through the Winter Words with Finnabair Snowflake Paste for a fun background. I then made a mug shaker using the Winter Mug Dies and the cutout to make a window for the shaker is from the Birthday Mug Additions Dies. The shaker bits are from the Christmas Cookie Shaker Beads . I used various colors of cardstock from Spellbinders for my card. I added a cute little bird from the Holiday Birds Dies and a couple gifts using the rectangle pieces from the Build A Stocking Dies. The rest of the die cuts are from the new Holiday Mug Additions Dies.  Then I added some pink dots on the greenery with Liquid Pearls in Ballerina. Lastly, I glued the card panel onto a 4.5-inch square card base. Make sure to check out the rest of the Hop for more inspiration using the new products from Pretty Pink Posh! There ar...
