Jenn Takes the Ugly and Bright Critters to the Beach!

- Nancy Krueger 2 Comments

It’s time to use all those Lawn Fawn critters in festive holiday designs! Link up your entry photos HERE! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies, stencils and papers and follow the challenge theme. This challenge will be open until Sunday, December 4 at 11:59PM ET.

Jenn joins us today with more charming Holiday Critters inspiration!

Jenn’s adorable scene takes the Ugly and Bright critters to the beach for a cozy holiday! She began by stenciling the snowflakes in the background with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide ink. Then she stamped all the images (see supply list below for the sets she used) with Jet Black Ink before coloring them with Copic markers.

All the glittery accents were adding using Quickie Glue and Prisma and Chunky Glitter.

She inked the Henry’s ABCs with Kitsch Flamingo and Lobster Ink to create a fun ombré, then she covered the lower part of each letter with Chunky Glitter.

As always, Jenn shares a Copic marker chart so you can recreate her cheery coloring!

Cozy Christmas with Joyce

We are looking for fun and festive holiday projects for our Challenge 128 – Christmas in July! Time to get a jump on your holiday crafting and enter the challenge before Sunday, July 17 at 11:59PM ET. We can’t wait to see how this challenge inspires you!

Joyce has a super sweet and cozy Christmas card to share today!

To create this darling design, Joyce started by using Snowflake Background Stencils to create an all-over pattern. She used Broken China and Prize Ribbon Distress Oxide inks on Mermaid cardstock for a frosty look.

Then she added the Stitched Teapot and Stitched Teacup in happy colors of cardstock. See the supply list below for all the colors she used. She spelled out “cozy” in Henry’s ABCs then added the spoon, sugar cubes and tag as cute details.

Thanks so much for inspiring us today with this beautiful card, Joyce!
