Lawnscaping Challenge #123: Sending Love Sponsored by Ellen Hutson

Another new month, another new challenge! Thanks for stopping by today to see what I've created for the latest Lawnscaping Challenge. This challenge's theme is Sending Love. I had the perfect idea in mind for this card, and simple as well!

Our sponsor for this challenge is Ellen Hutson. SO MANY PRODUCTS! Thank you for sponsoring this challenge! Check out the site for many amazing things to help you with your crafting desires wants NEEDS. ;)

Here it is! I started with a simple kraft card base and used some juicy ink with several hearts from the Woodgrain Backdrops set and created my own pattern. This is a great tip when you need something specific in certain colors to match your project. Create your own!

I simply diecut a scalloped square and stamped the little deer a bit lower than center top to bottom (leaving room for the sentiment), stamped the sentiment and diecut a little red heart from the Hearts Lawn Cuts for him to hold. I colored him in with my Spectrum Noir Markers and assembled everything. 

Too cute, right? Join us on this challenge and be sure to check the Lawnscaping Challenge blog for rules and all the other amazing design team projects for some inspiration.

Sent With Love

Good morning! I have a great new technique up on today's card to share with you. My bestie uses this all the time and encouraged me to try it out. And I must say, I love it! It's the no line watercolor technique. Basically you stamp your image with a faint ink so that it doesn't really show up predominately and then watercolor your image. It's gorgeous! You'll be seeing this technique show up a lot more often now that I've tried it and I love it.

We all know the love I have for Bebunni anyway, but this technique just made me love him even more!!! It really adds a depth to the image that I love. 

He's just too darn cute!

I figured it's about time to start making a few Valentine's day cards for my loved ones, right?! 

I used my Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens again on this card, but you can't really see the effect all that well, but I assure you, the glittery awesomeness is there! 

I hope you're inspired to try out this technique with a stamp designed just for coloring from Crafter's Companion.
