Thank you for visiting

I used my stamp tool and stamp all of the critters on a 5" x 8 1/2" cardstock.  I color all of the critters.  I adjust my printer setting to a higher density level and print out several copies using the Neenah Smooth White 80lb. cardstock.  I save the original and store it in a folder behind the stamp set.  That way, I don't have to color it over again for awhile.  Since I struggle with die cutting super small images due to poor lighting in my craft room and problems with my back, I cut out all of my stamps with my Brothers Scan and Cut machine.

First, I used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Wood Grain Background die set on brown cardstock.  I sponged on  Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Espresso ink and Tim Holtz Distress Black Soot ink on the stitched wood grain.  I center the large Lawn Fawn Bear Den die on the woodgrain background paper and die cut.  I found some woodgrain cardstock and cut it out for the floor.  I used the small stitched den in the set to cut out the window.  I cut a 2" blue cardstock and die cut the Lawn Fawn Starry Sky Star die.  I cut out 1" of silver glitter paper and adhere behind the falling star.  I used the white Uniball pen to add the small stars and then stamped the Lawn Fawn stars with Lawn Fawn white ink on the blue cardstock.  

I created 4 cards using this paper pad and I still have some remaining sheets left to create with.
I die cut additional papers using Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Dies.  As I wanted it off the edge of the card, I cut the edge off the circle.

Prima Marketing Metallique waxes to these before using a glue gun to adhere to the inside of the box.
I used this paper in the Stamperia Seaworld collection for each side of the wooden box.  I just used the this side of the cardstock for the top and bottom on each side. I love the 3D rustic appearance of the rusted out tin on this paper with the metal steal.  

I began by creating a 5" x 6 1/2" card from Bazzill Licorice cardstock.  Then I used the Scor-Pal to score at 5" and 2 1/2".  Starting from the center fold of the card, I cut off the top portion on an angle stopping about 2" from the bottom.
Once folded, the card takes on it's shape.

I thought about adding some color to the daisies, but I decided I liked the contrast against the backgrounds so I left them as is.

What do you think?

I'm using Stamperia Decorative Chips - Garland with Birds.  I used Copic Markers to color the decorative chip.  Using Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Circle Die, I die cut  Bazzill Candy Bar Cardstock to use under the decorative chip.  I adhered the chip to the circle with Art Institute Clear Adhesive.

To add dimension, I used Ranger Liquid Pearls in Raspberry or the berries and to fill in some of the flowers, along with Copper.  I also use Nuvo Crystal Drops to fill in several other flowers.

I created an easel card from Bazzill Candy Bar Cardstock and Craft O'Clock's Hazy Street pattern papers.  Stamping a phrase from Art Impressions with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink, I die it with Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Circle Die and matted with a larger die before adding it to the card with Glue Dots.  This helps the easel stand upright.
