Naughty Newton Birthday


Newton from 'Newtons Nook' Stamps is just so mischievous and is always up to something. This birthday card has Newton knocking over the flower pots. Typical cat. The stamp is from the stamp set 'Naughty Newton'. 

The background was created using My Favorite Things brick wall stencil and distress oxide ink. The sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

Stretching my Stamps

For this card, I had to edit the stamp a little bit. I wanted to use my Newton's Nook 'Naughty Newton' stamp to show a kitty holding up some balloons. This stamped image would have had the scratch marks showing a naughty kitty ripping the furniture. On my card I wanted him to be a good kitty, so once I stamped my image and die cut it with the corresponding die, I cut off the top where the extra bit of the image would be (that I didn't want). 

Now, I can glue the balloon string underneath his paws to look just like he was holding them up, or he was flying away into the sky! 

The background stencil is from My Favorite Things, and I used distress oxide inks in a few different colours to go with the balloons.

Quirky Birthday Card

I would have a good chuckle if someone made this card for me! This is a Newton's Nook stamp called 'Naughty Newton' and is so funny for a birthday card. Wouldn't that just be too typical of some of those devious cats to leave you a present in the litter box on your birthday. 

I used Lawn Fawn 'party balloon' stencils and distress oxide inks for the background, and the sentiment is from My Favorite Things.

Up!


This kitty is in for a wild ride up into the clouds for a birthday flight using some balloons! I hope the kitty is not afraid of heights! 

The balloons were die cut using paint swatches from my neighbourhood hardware store, which I find the BEST for using bright vibrant colours for balloons and small objects without breaking the bank and purchasing all sorts of different coloured cardstocks. The dies are from Lawn Fawn called 'party balloons' and my kitty is from My Favorite Things 'I knead you'. 

I used the Lawn Fawn stitched clouds die cut to create a stencil for my cloud background, which I then used Distress Oxide inks to blend together to create my vibrant sky.

Be Pawsitive


I am sharing a very cute condolence card featuring a precious angel puppy floating over the rainbow. I love the message here to be positive and that your furry friend is in a better place. 

The stamps used here are from Lawn Fawn 'friends forever', and 'meow you doin'. The puffy clouds are also from Lawn fawn and is in a mini die set called 'puffy clouds'.

Picture Purrfect


This is another card for the Lawn Fawnatics Sketch Challenge. For this card I used the Lawn Fawn Picture Frame dies, and the kitties from the 'Meow you Doin' stamp set. My sentiment is from Avery Elle 'Furry Friends' stamp set. 


Thank you for visiting my blog today, and I hope you are staying safe out there!

Lawn Fawn Sketch Inspiration


I was able to use some inspiration from a Lawn Fawnatics Challenge this week to use my new stamp set from them called 'Get well before and afters'. During this pandemic I think we will need to create many 'get well' cards for our friends and family. Who knows how long we will be living like this. 

I love using cute little sayings on my cards to make someone smile, and I hope it can make someone who is not feeling well feel uplifted and hopeful.

Otter Friendship

I love this cute little stamp set that I got during Stamptember a few years back with a mix of some really cute Lawn Fawn stamps called 'Friends Forever'.

This is a cute birthday card that I created with a watercolor background using Ken Oliver Crafts 'Color Burst' watercolors.
