Folk Art Fox Card w/ Newton's Nook Designs!! =)

Pin It

HELLO!!
Today I'm sharing this Folk Art Fox Card I made for the Newton's Nook Designs Blog using the New Cottage Garden Stamp Set and the Coordinating Cottage Garden Die Set!!

 

I've been having a BLAST playing with the New Distress Oxide Inks from Tim Holtz and I created the AMAZING Teal Color on those Foxes by Layering Two Ink Colors, Cracked Pistachio and Faded Jeans!! After I Stamped and Embossed the images with Clear Embossing Powder, I trimmed them out using the coordinating Cottage Garden Die Set and added them on the card in a FUN Folk Art Pattern along with some of the other SWEET Images ALL from the Cottage Garden Stamp Set!! I rotated them in different directions to resemble a lovely Folk Art Pattern that you'd find on a Plate or Wall Hanging!! Then to finish off my card I added some Gems to the Flowers on the Images and some Black Gel Pen to the Eyes of each of the Fox Eyes then the "Hello, Friend" Sentiment Embossed in White Embossing Powder onto a Black Banner from the Garden Window Die Set!! Which is on SALE for this Week ONLY!! (Through April 14th)

It's MY FAVORITE Banner Die and I think if you'd look I use it on more than 1/2 of my Cards!! It's just the PERFECT Size!!  =)

Sweet Little Pig and 3-D Basket with Simon Says Stamp!! =)

Pin It



Hello!!
I saw that the challenge over on both the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog and the Simon Says Monday Challenge Blog was FUN with Felt!! =) SQUEAL!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Felt!! I have been creating up a storm using the Simon Says Stamps Plush Party Bunny Wafer Die Set along with Plush Spring Time Basket Wafer Die Set and the Mini Flower and Leaves Wafer Die Set!! I've been having FUN altering the Die Cuts to create some other projects to get MORE out of my Dies!! I just LOVE being able to use them for SO MANY different things!! =) So I created a Sweet Little Pig along with a Larger 3-D Basket for my Niece to carry her Sweet Little Pig around in from some October Afternoon Fabrics and some Felt!! =) For the Pig I Die Cut ALL of my Pieces and then just made the ears alittle smaller!! I Stitched it altogether and then added the Mini Flowers to the her Ear!! I used the Button Die Cut from some Soft Pink/Peach Felt from WPlus9 for the Pigs Nose and Stitched it too the Face of the Pig!! For the Basket I drew out a Pattern using the Spring Time Basket Die to create a 3-D Basket!! Here's a Picture of the Pattern I made!!

It's SUPER EASY to create and then I used the Die to Cut out the Fabric Pieces from the October Afternoon Fabric and then used the Pattern I made to Cut my Felt Pieces out to create the Shape and the Liner of my Basket!! I like to double it up just to make it more stable, but you could totally just do this in a Single Layer if you want!! Then I Stitched it up and added the Handle also included in the Set!! I layered this up as well and again I did it to make it more sturdy so it could stand up to LOTS of Wear and Tear from Raelee!! =)
