Happy Birthday From La-La Land Crafts

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear...

This week at La-La Land Crafts we are celebrating birthdays. Each one of the Friday design team members has made a birthday project to inspire you. Check out the blog post here...https://lalalandcrafts.blogspot.com/.

Here is the card that I made.

I decided to make the main color of my card yellow. Yellow is such a happy color. 


It really wasn't that long ago that I discovered the PAPER DOLLS that La-La Land Crafts has. I instantly fell in love. My favorite part...the little heart on their cheek. 

For this birthday card, I used Paper Doll Marci Birthday. I colored her with Copic markers. You will find the markers that I used posted below. 


I distressed the edges of the cardstock with a paper distressing tool. I am a huge fan of distressed paper.

Isn't it adorable!?! 

One of the perks of the Club Kit Subscription, should you subscribe, is project tutorials. 
This purse is what I did my tutorial on. The video includes the coloring of Marci. 


It was nice to create something other than a card. It's been a while since I had. The best part was that it didn't take any longer than a card would have.

La-La Land Crafts We Celebrate You Card

Hello friends! How are you this fine Friday morning? Let me tell you...IT IS FREAKING COLD here in Palmer Alaska. We have had temps under 0 for the last week. As cold as -25 degrees! 

Needless to say, I have had lots of time indoors sitting in front of the fireplace with my Copics. 

The La-La Land Crafts Friday team is making clean and simple projects this week. Believe it or not, this clean and simple card took me as long to make as some of my more detailed cards. Clean and simple is just not simple for me. 


I sure do like the look of clean and simple though. 

I was having a hard time deciding what to do with Marci's outfit so I went to Pinterest. Pinterest never lets me down! I saw a little girl wearing a shirt with a kitty face. I thought that would be perfect with cheetah print! 

Now that I am looking at Marci, I should have made her pockets pink with cheetah print too. Next time!

La-La Land Crafts items used...

La-La Land Crafts Owl Always Love You

Happy New Year! I hope your year is off to a good start. Mine sure is. I have gotten some coloring time in which always makes me a little more relaxed and happy. 

This week the La-La Land Crafts Friday Team were to make a New Year or inspirational card. What is more inspirational than letting someone you care about know that they are loved? 

I went through the La-La Land Crafts stamps and finally settled on Owl Hat Marci Rubber Stamp. 



That hat is just adorable! My daughter Kylah had one just like it when she was little. She adored owls. She has now moved on to llamas. 


I was thankful to find the perfect color of cardstock to match the color of Marci's clothes. I didn't have the right color of ink for the hearts though. 

Improvise, adapt and overcome...that's what my husband always says. He is a former Marine. 

With that in mind, I took the dusty concord Distress Ink and victorian velvet Distress Ink...I first put a soft layer of the dusty concord ink down and then the victorian velvet. The combination of the two colors made the perfect color for the hearts. 

I colored Marci with Copic markers. All the combinations are listed below. 

If you are interested in seeing coloring video's, I am starting to do a few of them. Take a look at my youtube channel. Make sure you subscribe so you can see when I post new videos!

La-La Land Crafts December 2019 Club Kit Release

Good morning! Today is the release day for the December 2019 La-La Land Crafts Club Kit. I am super excited to be guest designing for Monthly Club Kits for the next couple of months. 

The kit this month is one of my favorites. It's a subject that no one wants to know about yet every one of us has been touched by in some way.

CANCER


With this kit, we can encourage and uplift our friends and family who may be going through chemo and other trials. 


The name of this months Marci is Courage Marci
I'm Here For You.
The names of the die cuts are:
Hope Heart
Awareness Ribbon
Stitched Fight

The Set is valued at 77.99! But you can get it for $39.99! If you just want this month's stamps, you can get them for $19.99. Just the dies...$29.99. To ensure you get this month's kit you must make your purchase by December 25th. If you decide to sign up after that, you will get the kit for the following month.


The boxing gloves on this card are from Marci. I colored the gloves and then fussy cut them. I then colored the bottom part of Marci's legs and made them into cuffs for the gloves. 

It's amazing how much the simple act of sending a card can uplift a person's spirits. 

There is a wonderful program called CHEMO ANGELS that I have been a part of for several years. People who are going through chemo apply and are then set up with a volunteer or "Chemo Angel" who sends them cards and gifts. There are a few different kinds of "Angels." You can decide for yourself which one is fitting for you and send in your volunteer application. 

Being a Chemo Angel has been a great experience for me. If you are looking for different ways to serve your fellow men, I highly recommend being a Chemo Angel.  


To color the images, I used Copic markers. You will find the coloring details and product links below. 

Card 1 Copic markers used...
Skin: E04, E11, E21, E00, E000, E0000 Blush: R20, R30 Lips: E04, R20

Here is the link to the Club Kit subscription. Don't wait too long or you'll miss out!

Check out my YouTube Video! I show you how I color Marci's skin. I will do another one for her clothing later. 

Thank you for stopping by! Hope you have a great day!
