Fancy Feathered Friend

This fancy little chickadee is dressed to impress for Christmas—and honestly, that tiny pinecone hat deserves its own holiday parade! Perched in a beautiful spray of Christmas foliage, she looks perfectly ready to hold court, spread cheer, and wait patiently for all the merry magic to arrive. She is from the Cozy Chirps Stamp Set by Pajama Crafters.  

This card is all about sparkle, shimmer, and sweet little details—from the shaker embellishments to the glitter twinkling on her pinecone hat. If you’d like to see how this lovely little lady came together, follow along with my process video on YouTube for all the festive cardmaking fun!

She has been colored with Copic markers in the following colors:

• E31, E24, E15, E39, E59 - pinecone
• E40, E42, E43, E44 - bird
• Y26, YR23 - beak and berries
• G21, YG62, G94 - holly leaves
• G28, YG67 - pine
• R29, R29, R89 - berries

I didn't put a sentiment on the front of this card, because there were too many sparkly elements that I just didn't want to cover, so I will put one on the inside.

Make sure you check out my video to see how this all came together.

Fall Friends

 With fall just around the corner, I couldn’t resist creating this sweet little slider card full of cozy autumn fun. Just look at this adorable trio of friends! That little bunny is having the absolute best time leaping into the leaf pile, and I’m pretty sure they’ve been taking turns raking up the biggest, crunchiest pile just for each other.

I created this card with the new Kat Scrappiness Leaf Pile Critters Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies and had so much fun building that cheerful fall scene with the new Build A Scene Stamp and Die Set. It has all the happy sweater-weather vibes—playful leaves, cute critters, and a little bit of autumn magic.

I used Copic markers for all the coloring on this card.  The color combinations I used are:

• G21, YG63 - green
• YR04, YR16 - orange
• R17, R27 - red
•  E07, E19 - rust
• YR26, YR09 - orange
• Y08, Y18 - yellow
• E15, E17 - brown
• Y26, YR21 - golden brown
• E15, E39, E59 - tree trunk
• E0000 E50 - bunny & hedgehog tummy
• E50, E31, E55 - bunny body
• YR23, YR24, YR27 - squirrel
• E34, E35, E99 - hedgehog body

I really like the new Build A Scene Stamp and Die Set.  While I used it for a fall scene, it will be perfect for all the seasons.  It definitely helps you build the perfect scene.

Thanks for stopping by and happy fall crafting!

If You Got It Haunt It

 This debonair Jack-O’-Lantern is serving spooky forest charm with a mischievous little grin. There he sits, cool as can be, waiting to give the next trick-or-treater a playful fright — though with that patched-up side, he’s definitely more cute than creepy. This fun little fellow is from the Patchwork Pumpkins Stamp Set by Pajama Crafter Stamps.

I have layered him on an ink blended background.  I blended Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink to make the spooky sky.  

The tree silhouette background is the Spooky Forest Overlay by Riley and Company. The corner cobweb is a Kat Scrappiness Die from the Creepy Crawly Craft Die Set.

The sentiment is from the Pajama Crafter Stamps Where My Ghouls At Stamp Set.  I stamped in on a moon that I cut out with the Riley and Company Moon and Bats Die Set.

My friend is colored with Copic markers in the following colors:  

• Y32, YR12, YR15, YR18 - pumpkin
• T1, T3, T5, T7 - gray
• YG61, G43, G46 - leaves
• Y00, Y02, Y13, Y17 - yellow
• YG11, YG05, YG63 - bright green
• RV10, RV02 - pink
• V01, V12, V15, V17 - purple
• B000, B00, BG02 - blue

This little guy just makes me so happy and makes me look forward to spooky season.  How about you?
