Anything Goes Challenge
Spotlight- Lawn Fawn

Nothing makes the mistakes on a card SCREAM like putting them on your blog does.  At least I can sit here and make notes to go back and make the fixes.

I didn't know I'd be posting these when I made them, so I didn't keep up with what stamp sets I used, sorry.
All stamps and die by Lawn Fawn, colored with Copics



Treat bag inspired by Debby H. (LimeDoodle) using Lawn Fawn's Snow Day papers, and Spellbinder die

Operation Write Home 4th of July Virtual Card Making Party 2014





  vcmpgraphic
Welcome to the next challenge in the Operation Write Home 4th of July Virtual Card Making Party 2014.  It's Christmas in July, and our theme for this segment of the party is a Red, White & Blue Christmas.  We are aiming for a little earlier deadline for Christmas cards this year at OWH, so now is a good time to "get going" on them.
I wanted to make a card using the little guy above, but could not get it to print, (he came out looking like my printer is almost out of ink & it isn't) so, if anyone would like to give it a try, and use him in a card, I would love to see it and have included the link where to get him.

Here are a few of the cards I've made

Digi-stamp by Dover Publication colored with Copic Markers
other stamps used (holly & sentiment) are by Lawn Fawn and I used a touch of Glossy Accents 

Paper Piecing using (retired) stamps and dies by Stampin' Up, The branch is an Impression Obsession die & the embossing folder is by The Paper Studio

Simple Stamping with wet, & a small touch of dry embossing



Sizzix embossing folder, various punches and dies used

Using up some scraps

One last thing before you go get to work on this challenge, inquiring minds want to know, so please comment below & tell me....
when you make a card for someone, do you make it to reflect the recipient's personality or your own personality?

I'm looking so forward to seeing what you create for our Red, White & Blue Christmas challenge.

Disney/Pixar Blog Hop

Glad you've made it this far. That Ellen, (aka CardMonkey,) always knocks my socks off with her great projects and is a really tough act to follow.
Here are a few things I'd like to share with you today......  

$4 tumbler that I dressed up with vinyl cut outs from the Cricut "Mickey & Friends" and the "Mickey Font" cartridges
windsock / mobile made from Rowlux Illusion Film (see yesterday's post) Cricut "Mickey Font" cartridge was used with the deep blade housing set at 6, pressure at max. and multi-cut 3 times
 

Inlaid card made from Rowlux Illusion Film.  Mickey head was cut using my Cricut and the stars were die cut with the Big Shot.
I just had to make something using my old homemade "Mickey Head" embossing folder from this post http://tamiscraftconnection.blogspot.com/2011/05/tuesday-tips-mickey-mouse-head.html

I made this for one of the previous Disney hops and it still hangs in my craftroom but.........

Here's an updated version using the Rowlux Illusion Film.  It is so pretty when the light hits it.  There may be several of these on my Christmas tree this year!
And for sticking to the end, here's a little bonus for you fellow Disney lovers- Free Disney font
Well, I hope you've enjoyed today's leg of the month long Disney/Pixar hop.  I"m the last stop this week, but wait till you see what's in store for you next Saturday.
