La-La Land Crafts December 2020 Release: Snowboard Luka

 Hello!  Happy Monday!  Today, I'm sharing a fun winter card featuring the new stamps and dies from La-La Land Crafts!  You can find all the NEW Goodies HERE.  Be sure to hop over there and check it out!

For my card, I started with a sheet of the new patterned paper and trimmed it to fit the front of my card base.  Then I die cut the mountains, ski lift, and trees from card stock and layered them together in my background.  I used some white glitter card stock for my snowy ground and added some die cut pond elements to look like drifts of snow.  Then I colored up Luka, fussy cut him out and popped him on top of my scene using some foam tape.  I also die cut the skis from blue card stock and added those to the scene with foam tape as well.  A fun little sentiment finishes it off!

Picket Fence Studios Slim Line Cards!

 Hello, hello! Today, I'm sharing two fun and easy cards using the new Slim Line Die Cutting System as well as some of the new products from the November Release!  All products used are linked below.  Be sure to check out the Picket Fence Shop to see all the new goodies!  

For my first, card, I started with some teal card stock and die cut it using the largest rectangle from the Slim Line Die Cutting System.  Then I use the smaller rectangle from a lighter blue card stock.  I used the stitched circle die in the set to create random circles on my lighter blue panel.  Then I adhered it to the teal piece.  

I used some of the new snowflake dies to cut snowflakes in various sizes from white card stock, holographic card stock, and glassine paper.  Then I layered them on top of my card and adhered with Glossy Accents.  I added some scattered sequins throughout the card and finished it off with a sentiment heat embossed in white on black card stock.  Such a quick and easy card that really packs a punch!  


For my next card, I used the new Slim Line Die cutting System and paired it with the new Pet all the Dogs Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.  To begin, I chose a bright blue piece of card stock and die cut it using the largest rectangle in the set.  Then, I die cut a piece of white card stock using the smaller rectangle die.  I used the picket fence die to cut three openings in my white panel.  Then I used the grass die to cut  three grass pieces from green card stock.  I layered each one behind the picket fence openings and adhered them together.  Then I colored up my dogs, cut them out using the coordinating dies, and tucked one of them in between my grass and fence.  Then I adhered it all together and popped my dogs on top using foam tape.  I stamped my sentiment across the top and added some die cut clouds from the A Spooky Day Stamp and Coordinating Die set.  

Again, another quick and easy card that's sure to brighten anyone's day!

25 Days of Christmas Tags: Picket Fence Studios

 


Hello!  I am thrilled to be joining the 10th Annual 25 Days of Christmas Tags Event hosted by Tracey McNeely!  You can find her blog here: http://inmycreativeopinion.blogspot.ca 

Today, I'm showcasing a fun holiday tag featuring the Sponsored By Coffee Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Die from Picket Fence Studios!  For my tag, I stamped my image out in light tan ink and colored it in with Copics.  Then I cut it out using the coordinating die.  I also used the coordinating die to cut a piece of thin chipboard and another piece of blank white card stock.  Then I adhered them all together so that my chipboard layer was sandwiched between the two piece of card stock.  This give the tag some stability and a finished look.  


Then, I stamped out my sentiment on another piece of white card stock and trimmed it into a banner.  I added white eyelets to my tag and sentiment strip and tied them both together using twine.  A black and white gingham bow and a little 3D holly sticker finish it off.  


A cute little holiday tag that can be tied to the top of a gift or added to a coffee mug.

La-La Land Crafts Tag

 Hello!  Today, I'm sharing a sweet little Christmas Tag featuring the Dear Santa Clear Stamp Set from La-La Land Crafts!  To create this little tag, I started with my image, stamped him out, and colored him up with my Copics.  Then I die cut the Country Hill Die from some White card stock and colored it up to look like a winter farm scene.  I die cut that using the stitched squares die and layered that on top of a white die cut postage stamp.  Then I added some patterned papers to my kraft tag and popped on my feature image using foam tape.  At the top of the tag, I added some die cut pine boughs, some ribbon, a couple of jingle bells and some red enamel dots.  

I just love how this turned out.  The perfect addition to a holiday gift!

Picket Fence Studios November 2020 Release!!!

 Hello!  It's time for the November Release at Picket Fence Studios!!!!  So so many amazing products being released this month!  You do not want to miss this!  

My first card features the New Bugville Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.  How fun is this!  A cute little buggy town with little bugs to go with it!  To create my card, I used my Life-Changing Blender Brushes to create a blue background with Distress Inks.  Then, I stamped out my sentiment in black ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I stamped out my images, colored them up with Copics, and cut them out using the coordinating dies.  Then, I added a black strip of card stock to the bottom of my blue panel and drew in some white lines with a gel pen.  Using foam tape, I popped my town on top and added my bugs with liquid adhesive.  Such a fun, vibrant way to say, "hello."



My next card features fun, vibrant colors as well.  I used my Life Changing Blender Brushes again to stencil in my Daisy Burst background using some dye inks in my stash.  Then I die cut an oval from the center and turned it into a shaker using the NEW Moonshine Sequin Mix.  For the drinks, I used the NEW Drink Your Greens Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.  After coloring them up with Copics, I cut them out and arranged them in front of my shaker window.  I used liquid glue to adhere some of them and popped some of them up with foam tape.  Then I also added some colored flowers from the NEW Beautiful Girl Flowers Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.  A little encouraging sentiment finishes it off.  


For my final card, I used the NEW Slim Line Die Cutting System to create another fun and vibrant card.  First, I used the smaller die to cut a piece of light blue card stock.  Then I added some Ocean Poppy Paper Glaze to the NEW Geosquares Stencil to create my background.  I used the circle from the Slim Line Die Cutting System to cut a circle towards the top of the card and created another shaker card using the NEW Razzle Dazzle Sequins Mix.  Such a beautiful mix of colors!  Then I mounted the whole thing on top of some purple card stock cut with the largest die.  I layered on the Alice Girl Stamp just in front of my shaker.  For my sentiment, I used the NEW Literally Word Die and cut it from yellow card stock mounted on a white background.  The stamped sentiment underneath is from the NEW Drink Your Greens Stamp Set.

Picket Fence Studios Hello Lovely Slim Line


Hello!  Or should I say, "Hello, Lovely!"  I hope you are having a fabulous week!  Today, I am sharing a pretty slim line card featuring the NEW Slim Line Die Cutting System!  As you've probably already heard, this Die Cutting System is so easy to use and offers endless possibilities!  For my card, I paired it with some patterned paper and Beautiful Girl Karen!  


First, I die cut the smaller rectangle from some plaid patterned paper.  Then I layered that on top of some white card stock die cut with the larger rectangle.  This created the base panel for my card.  Then I used the tree square from the set and die cut that from some white card stock.  I trimmed around the edges to create a white border and then layered that onto some black card stock and trimmed again.  Then I adhered it to the top of my card panel.  I stamped, colored, and die cut my image and popped her in the center of the frame using foam tape.  Then I die cut and layered up my "lovely" sentiment.  I adhered that just below my image.  The "hello" sentiment is from the Dragon Fruit stamp set.  I heat embossed that in white and trimmed it into a rectangle.  Then I added it just over the bottom of my "lovely" sentiment.  A few Gin and Tonic Sequins finish this card off!  I just love how it turned out and it was so easy to create!
