I Chews You Valentine with Audrey!

Hello there!  Audrey here today with a punny watercolor card!  I actually used Lawn Fawn inks in Lobster and the new Plastic Flamingo (which happens to be the most perfect shade of pink!) to watercolor my background using the ink smooshing technique.  I tapped the ink pad on a piece of clear acetate, spritzed it with water, and pressed it into my watercolor paper, moving it around until I was happy with the ink distribution.  I started with Plastic Flamingo, and then dried that layer before adding small amounts of Lobster ink.  I stamped, colored and diecut the gumball machine and gumballs from the Sweet Smiles stamp set, and then added a piece of polkadot patterned paper from the Let's Polka Mon Amie 6x6 paper pad, topped with a Stitched Scalloped Border.  I created a custom sentiment using Violet's ABCs, and then matted the panel on a Scalloped Rectangle cut from red cardstock.  Before adding it to a red card base, I tied a bit of Peppermint Lawn Trimmings in a bow in the top right corner.


I Chews You

That's all for me today!  All supplies are listed and linked above!

Thanks so much for stopping by!! :)

Warm Wishes To You

Hello everyone..

Lexa here today with a Christmas card for this season. Let's get started!


I made this background using Argyle Backdrops in Lobster and Walnut, and it looks so pretty! I love how it turns. Then decided to take the color scheme for the rest of the card.
I started with a tag, watercolored the background and colored the border, then stamp the "warm wishes" sentiment with Lawn Fawn Walnut Dye Ink. I tied a single cord twine in red and white for an extra cuteness. ;)
The gingerbreads are from Sweet Christmas set, colored them with my Distress Ink Markers and diecut them. I set a glass of warm chocolate from Love You A Latte between them in mint color. At last, I think a border on the left side will be nice, so I die cut a brown cardstock with my medium size scalloped border, and red fish tail banner with some peppermint sweets stamped in it.

I hope you like today's card! Have a sweet day.
