Stamptember - Lawn Fawn

Hi All!

Every September the Simon Says Stamp company has what they call Stamptember where the release limited time exclusive stamps with different stamp companies. Some of the companies that are part of Stamptember this year are Lawn Fawn, Tim Holtz, Mama Elephant, Newton's Nook, Honey Bee and more. Usually each day there is a new stamp (and sometimes a stamp & die combo) released.

On the Simon Says Stamp blog they post the new stamp set, some samples and a challenge using the stamp company of the day. I decided to play along with the Lawn Fawn challenge because I love Lawn Fawn and have a bunch of their stamps. So I created a set of three tags that can be added to a treat bag or even a card.

A Treat For You Tags (Set of 3 Tags) -


Supplies Used: Lawn Fawn Dies (Say What? Gift Tags, Say What? Pets - speech bubble); Lawn Fawn Stamps (Duh - Nuh; Seahorsin' Around, So Jelly, Say What? Pets); White Cardstock; Memento Black Ink; Copic Markers; Taylored Expressions Stencil (Go With The Flow); Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Blue); Pop Dots

With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 4 the challenge was Monochromatic Magic.


I struggled with this challenge because I love colour and love the rainbow effect. But when I went to create this card I decided to use blue to create a card that could put a smile on someone's face.

I love the Filled with Joy Die-namics set as you can use to create many different options for a snowman, ornament or sentiment. I used the set to create a hanging ornament with the Joy sentiment. I always create quite a few cards during the Holiday season. This set can help to create quite a few cards for the Holiday season.

I finally managed to get my hands on the Entwined Hearts die after months of it being on backorder and I love it! I thought if I cut this out of thicker cardstock I could use it as a mask or type of stencil to create this really cool background.

MFT Camp Create August 2019 - Day 3 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for the second session for this summer! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 3 the challenge was Background Bonanza.


Ever since this die was released I have loved it so I figured it would be the perfect image to use as my background for this card. I die cut the die out of white cardstock and using distress ink I created a rainbow of colour on the paper. I love the way the rainbow came out in the the speech bubble but it was missing just a little something so I added "This Is Your Year" in white ink on black cardstock to the bottom right corner to finish off the card.

Celebrate This Is Your Year Card


Supplies: White Cardstock, Black Cardstock, MFT Die-namics (Celebrate Speech Bubble), MFT Stamp (You Wow Me), Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Candied Apple, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers and Wilted Violet), Lawn Fawn Ink (Yeti), Pop Dots

My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019... Day 2 Challenge

Hi All!

The My Favorite Things Camp Create 2019 is back for a new session! Each day they bring in a new camp activity for everyone to play along with. With each new challenge you can earn a new camp badge while taking your card making up a notch. For day 2 the challenge was Remarkable Resist.



I decided to use a stencil to create the clear embossed background. After using the clear embossing powder I used the Distress Ink to finish creating the background. I also wanted to continue on with the birthday party theme I have going with all the other cards so I used the Celebrate die. I cut out the Celebrate die 4 times to layer them on top of themselves to create more dimension.

Celebrate Time to Party! Card



Supplies: White Cardstock, Black Cardstock, MFT Snow Flurry stencil, Versamark Ink, Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers), Clear Embossing Powder, MFT Celebrate die, MFT BB Bitty Bears stamp, Memento Black Ink
