Purple Plaid

By KariV on October 24, 2016 in Paper Crafting

I’ve really been drawn to plaid lately….so I thought I’d give this technique a try! I was inspired by Kristina Werner to create a plaid background with Gansai Tambi Watercolors.

Combine that with the current Lawnscaping Challenge to use black, purple and one other color (I added some silver!) and I came up with this card:

I love that little Lawn Fawn bunny (I’ve never used this stamp before!) and that Lawn Fawn “Thanks” die.

What do you think? Is the purple plaid too much?

I kinda like it 🙂
I used distress inks on the little circle background behind the bunny, and some silver glitter card stock for the thanks die and the circle background. Hope you enjoy!

Life is Good in a Tiki Hut

By KariV on September 13, 2016 in Paper Crafting

The Lawnscaping Challenge is all about texture this time.

I haven’t used my “Life Is Good” set in a really long time, and I thought that little crab would enjoy some lemonade! I did some masking to make it look like the crab was holding the glass of lemonade. And then I made a “Tiki hut” for the background out of twine I had in my craft room (that’s the texture!)

A little Stickles on that ice cold lemonade makes it look so delicious! I did a little inking around the edges of the wavy paper (with Evergreen Bough Distress Ink).

This card makes me think of Hawaii. It might be time to visit. 😉

Enjoy!

Hoppy Birthday

By KariV on August 21, 2016 in Paper Crafting, Uncategorized

I can’t believe I have never used this Argyle stamp set from Lawn Fawn. It is so much fun to stamp, and it’s so cute!

The inks I used are Simon Says Stamp in Fog and Audrey Blue. Then I took that blue ink and splattered some ink splotches on the background, making sure I covered that argyle border first so it stayed clean! I also used another darker blue for the background splotches (Gansai Tambi watercolor).

The kangaroo is colored with Prismacolor pencils.
