Happy Wednesday, friends! A couple of weeks ago I went live on YouTube with this sweet skunk card (these skunks are sweet!) featuring brand new stamps, dies, and stencils from the Lawn Fawn Valentine's Release! If you stuck with me through the tech difficulties.... thank you! Also, I am aware the the quality of the live is not as good as normal. I apologize. With the difficulty with getting the stream going I missed a setting and that means not as great of quality. Boo! Good news, after multiple technicians have been out here we should be good to go for 2022! ;)

The Lawn Fawn Lots of Hearts Stencils were used to stencil a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" panel of smooth white cardstock with Lawn Fawn Ballet Slippers Ink and Guava Ink. I love how the layering stencils make it super easy to add two (or more!) colors of ink for this beautiful hearts background!
The background was die cut with a Simon Says Stamp Thin Frames Die and then some Lawn Fawn Raspberry Cardstock was also die cut with the same die. The outside frame and inside rectangle from the stenciled design and the solid frame were then adhered to a white side fold card base.
The Lawn Fawn Giant XOXO Die was die cut several times from smooth white cardstock. One of the die cuts was inked with Lawn Fawn Lobster Ink for an ombre effect and then the dies were stacked and adhered one on top of another for a dimensional effect before being adhered to the card as shown.
The images were die cut with the coordinating dies and adhered to the card with foam adhesive as shown.
A greeting from the Lawn Fawn Scent With Love Add On was stamped on Lawn Fawn Narwhal Cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. The phrase was die cut with a SSS Sentiment Labels Die and adhered to the card with foam adhesive.

Currently I am doing a Friday morning Lives at 9 am CT. Replays will be on my YouTube Channel. The next YouTube Live will be Friday, January 7, 2021! Merry Christmas!
I have a few requests to edit the Lives. Currently I am not going to edit them. This is for a couple of reasons:
1) Lives are new to me and we are going to stick with this format for a bit. I personally love Lives. I haven't watched an edited Live so I reserve the right to reconsider in the future if I think it's something I can fit in my schedule.
2) I don't want to spend the precious hours I have for creating new content, editing a Live. I will be bringing the exact same amount of traditional content and videos to my channel. Lives/replays are in addition to that content.
If you want to join us for some real-time crafty fun each week I would love to "see" you there. Please make sure to SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube Channel and click the notification bell so that YouTube alerts you when I'm going live. I am trying to reach 100,000 subscribers so if you haven't subscribed yet I would SO appreciate it! I am grateful for my community on all the platforms!
Thanks to everyone who joined me today! I had a blast visiting with everyone. ❤️
Happy Friday, friends! Today I am sharing a trio of three slimline cards inked with Distress Oxide Inks with cloudy stenciled backgrounds. Each card features adorable new Colorado Craft Company Anita Jeram images!
