Cheery Lynn Happy Camper

Hi again!  I've been crafting up a storm with the new Cheery Lynn Retro Release dies. I have a girl scout, cub scout and boy scout in my house as well as another future cub. I envision  this Happy Camper die set getting a ton of use.  The lines on the camper make it easy to cut and paper piece so you can customize the color.  I also backed it with a silver metallic paper that shows through the windows.  The tire was colored with a black marker.

Dies R Us Going Camping

Hi friends!  I'm back today with an inspiration card for Dies R Us's new challenge Outdoor Fun.  The camping dies are from Cheery Lynn's last release.  This card was created on an A2 card base.  Everything was colored with sponges and distress ink.  The stamped sentiment is from Riley and Co. and reminds me of a friend of mine and fellow scout mom.  I get a kick out of this saying, it's how I'd like to camp too.

Classy Cards Name Frame

Hi,  this is posting today over at the Classy Cards 'n Such Blog. I've made Jungle and Princess themed name frames for my younger children but not for my oldest.  He is bridging to Boy Scouts soon and I thought it was time to finally make him one.

I began with a 7.5" square of light blue paper.  The frame is 8"square.  I cut the letters with a die from my stash out of brown paper and then added distress ink with my Mini Ink blending tool to make them look a little dirtier.    I also added a clear glaze to the top of the letters so they'd have a more substantial "feel".  

I mounted the blue layer onto a larger sheet of green card stock with Joy Foam Pads.  The green layer was then backed with brown card stock to pick up the color from the letters.  I added the white mountains popping them up with Joy Foam Pads and then added the main Kraft foreground panel also adhering it with Foam Pads.  I distressed the Kraft card stock with green distress ink and a Mini Blending Tool.

                                  

The Impression Obsession Fir Trees were cut from dark gray-green card stock and grouped to create the background.  The ones in the foreground were adhered with foam pads for dimension.  The smaller Impression Obsession Evergreen Trees are darker green.

The Poppystamps Fireplace Logs and Poppystamps Warm and Cozy Fire die cuts were colored with distress ink.  The fire is popped higher with foam pads too.  I added a little gold paint to the edges of the fire for visual dimension and shine.  Last I adhered a tent die cut from my stash with Joy Foam Pads.
