Get Well Before and After Picture Changer

April 14, 20191 Comment

Welcome back everyone! Today I’m featuring a fun Magic Picture Changer card this time featuring the Get Well Before n’ After and Rain or Shine Before n’ After Stamp sets from Lawn Fawn. I thought it would be really fun to combine the two.

VIDEO DETAILS

I have a video tutorial that you can view down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.

I started by creating my background. I stenciled in clouds using the Mini Cloud Stencil and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide ink. I know it’s hard to see in pictures but I think it’s something that just adds to the scene.

I die cut the Straight Flower Border from Cilantro card stock and attached the flower tops with liquid glue. I used Sunflower, Guava, Mermaid and Sugar Plum card stock for the flowers. I only needed a few since most of the border will be covered by the picture changer.

I then used the Shadow Box Park Add On and die cut the trees from Paper Bag card stock and the tree tops from Cilantro. I went ahead and attached my tree tops and tree trunks to the stenciled panel. Then added the Flower border.

Since my background is pretty much done, I matted the stenciled panel to a piece of white card stock measuring 4″ x 5 1/4″ and added to an A2 size card base made from Mermaid card stock.

I stamped my images from the Get Well Before n’ After set and Rain or Shine Before n’ After set onto Lawn Fawn white card stock with Jet Black ink. I also stamped my images onto masking paper and after fussy cutting them out, I attached the masks to my images.

I ink blended Pumice Stone and Weathered Wood Distress Oxide for my stormy sky and I used Shabby Shutters for the ground. For my happy side, I ink blended Mowed Lawn and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide using a Life Changing Blender Brush.

After removing the masks, I colored in my images with copic markers. I used YG17, YG25, YG23, YG21, G99, G94, YG03 for the turtle. I added C4, C2, C1, and C0 for the stormy clouds. Once my images were colored I could put my Magic Picture changer together.

My frame is die cut from Cilantro card stock and Really Rainbow Scallops paper pack using the Picture Changer Add On. The green design matched my scene so well. I added my picture changer to the card front with two layers of foam tape.

My sentiment is heat embossed with white embossing powder onto Mermaid card stock. Then added to the front of the card with foam tape. This sentiment comes from the Get Well Before n’ After stamp set.

I hope you enjoyed more inspiration using the Magic Picture Changer. I’m having so much fun creating with it!

Create a Scene with the Picture Changer

March 27, 2019Leave a comment

Welcome back everyone! I’ve been itching to make this card since I got the stamp set and finally got around to it. Today I’m sharing how I was able to incorporate a scene into my magic picture changer from Lawn Fawn.

VIDEO DETAILS

I have a video that you can view down below or HERE on my Youtube channel. It goes over the details a lot more!

CARD DETAILS

I used numerous stamp sets in my scene including You Are Sublime, So Jelly and Get Well Before and After. I stamped my images onto Lawn Fawn White card stock with Jet Black ink and colored with copic markers. Then used the coordinating dies to cut them out with my Gemini Jr.

Next, I started working on my background. I ink blended Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Distress Oxide ink for my ocean floor. Then die cut with the Stitched Hillside Borders die.

My background is stenciled with Peacock Feathers with the Mini Cloud Stencil from MFT. Using a piece of Mermaid card stock I ink blended Blueprint Sketch at the very bottom and then added Peacock Feathers with my Life Changing Blender Brushes. I used the Stitched Waves Border to die cut from this piece of card stock.

I attached the waves to my cloud stenciled background. Then lined up the frame from the Picture Changer Add On and ran it through my Gemini Jr. I couldn’t find my shim but it still cut most of it out. I had to trim a few edges but otherwise worked well. This is how you can incorporate your entire scene into your picture changer. The frame is cut from the background and we will use both pieces for the card.

Next, I create my picture changer scene by stamping my whale from the Get Well Before and After stamp set. I created masks using Simon Says Stamp Masking Paper and attached over my image. Then ink blended Peacock Feathers and Blueprint Sketch which will match my water I created.

To start assembly, I add the cloud background that I had trimmed down to 4″ x 5 1/4″ to a piece of Peacock card stock that I’ll be using as my card base. Once my magic picture changer is put together, I added it to the area it was die cut out of using a double layer of foam tape. I love how everything lines up!

Then I attach the ocean bottom with foam tape so it overlaps the picture changer window a little but not enough that it will prevent my mechanism from moving. Super cool right?!

The final step is adding all of my images to the scene. For the sentiment, I die cut a banner from Mermaid card stock using the Fancy Wavy Banners. I stamped the sentiment from Get Well Before and After using Embossing ink and heat embossing with white embossing powder.

I have a fun idea for the turtle on this stamp set too! I hope you enjoyed today’s card. Be sure to head to my video HERE for more details on the assembly.

Galaxy Background with Distress Oxides & Lawn Fawn

March 26, 2019March 26, 2019Leave a comment

Welcome back! I have a super colorful project to share today! I’m pairing up a galaxy background with the Layered Butterflies from Lawn Fawn.

VIDEO DETAILS

I have a tutorial showing you how I created this background that you can view down below or HERE on my Youtube Channel.

CARD DETAILS

I started out by creating the elements for my card. Using my Gemini Jr., I die cut the solid piece of the Layered Butterflies die set from Vellum. Next, I die cut the top layer from Pixie Dust card stock so my butterflies sparkle! I adhered these two together using the Lawn Fawn Liquid Glue. The clouds are from the Butterfly & Kisses set in which I die cut from Vellum and will set off on the side for now.

For my background, I added Broken China, Twisted Citron, Seedless Preserves, Blueprint Sketch and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide inks using the Life Changing Blender Brushes. I then flicked on white speckles using some Picket Fence Distress Paint from Ranger to add stars.

Once that was dry, I stamped the little trails from Butterfly Kisses using Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink. I ran my clouds through a Xyron sticker maker which puts adhesive on the entire back of the cloud. Then attached my butterflies with the liquid glue.

For my sentiment, I die cut a piece of Black card stock using the Simple Wavy Banners die. Then stamped the sentiment from Wavy Sayings using Embossing Ink and sprinkling on Silver Embossing Powder. Then heated with my embossing gun. This was a great finishing touch to the galaxy. I added the sentiment strip to the card with foam tape for dimension.

I hope you enjoyed today’s card. You can save the board below to Pinterest for future reference.

No Place Like Gnome!

Welcome everyone! I have such a fun card to share with you! This is using some products from the Spring Release from Lawn Fawn

I also have a video that you can view down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.

There is a lot of die cutting on this card. If you haven’t had a chance to check out the Mushroom House you totally should! It is so adorable! I die cut the the house using Chili Pepper, Fog, Woodgrain, and Sunflower card stock. My door is popped up with foam squares for dimension.

To create my scene, I started with creating the sky using new Spiffy Speckles paper pack and die cutting using the Dotted Rectangle border. I added the Rainbow cut from Chili Pepper, Fake Tan, Sunflower, Cilantro, Mermaid, and Sugarplum cardstock. My Little Picket Fence is die cut from the Woodgrain card stock which I think looks so realistic!

Hills are die cut from Cilantro card stock using the Stitched Hillside border. Whew! Lots of die cutting but totally worth it and so easy when using my Gemini Jr.

My images are from Oh Gnome stamp set and stamped onto White card stock with Jet Black ink. Then colored with copic markers. I die cut with the coordinating die.

Be sure to check out my full tutorial over on my Youtube channel. I’m so in love with this cheerful card and reminds me of a mix of Wizard of Oz and Gnomeo and Juliet lol.

Magic Picture Changer – Lawn Fawn

February 27, 2019Leave a comment

Welcome back everyone! I have a fun interactive card to share with you today featuring the new Magic Picture Changer from Lawn Fawn! This is magic right here! It is so much fun to create and the possibilities are endless!

I have a video you can view down below or HERE on my Youtube Channel. It’s a lot easier to explain in a video versus a blog post so be sure to check it out.

For my picture changer, I decided to have my sky change from daytime to night time. I used the new Butterfly Kisses stamp set and Little Fireflies.

I used Simon Says Stamp Masking Paper to create mask for my images. Then ink blended a background for each.

The new Spring Fling paper pack is amazing too! The patterns just scream Spring and match perfectly! I also used the 4-bar rectangle die to cut a piece of the patterned paper to match my stitching on my card.
