I created this fun Unicorn card with the Dragons and Unicorns stamp set from Hero Arts. For the starry background I ink blended on an embossing folder so the white stars still shine through. I used markers and inks from Spectrum Noir for my coloring and inking.

I’m back with another card using the new Harmony Opaque Pigment Ink Pads from Spectrum Noir. I created this cute bear card using the inks. I used a blending brush with Lemon Tonic and Honey Pot inks on a stencil from Stencil Revolution to create the honeycomb background. I heat embossed my sentiments and images from a W Plus 9 stamp set with Honey Pot and Jet Black Inks with clear powder.
I made this cute little shaker card with stamps and dies from Lawn Fawn and the new Harmony Opaque Pigment Ink Pads from Spectrum Noir.

And I was inspired by this months challenge on the Lawn Fawnatics blog to make something see-through.
The latest challenge from Lawnfanatics is to use Lawn Fawn stamps to create a card inspired by a book, movie or song. I made a card inspired by Lady and the Tramp using stamps from the Critter’s in the Burbs, Critters at the Dog Park, Meow You Doin’, Bannerific and Critters Ever After.
