    • Christmas All Year Long – My Favorite Things Beast Friends

      Posted at 9:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Nov 9th

      Hey, everyone! It’s Christmas All Year Long at Scrapping for Less and I have some fun inspiration for you using the My Favorite Things Beast Friend stamp set. This was one of my first stamp sets from My Favorite Things  and it’s still one of my favorites!

      Beast Friends

      I stamped and colored the little yeti holding the string of lights from the Beast Friends stamp set with my Copics. My favorite way to color these guys is with light Neutral Gray Copic markers and skin tones for his face and ears. I grabbed some Distress Inks and started blending ink onto a background panel. I only used Crushed Olive, but because I didn’t clean off my blender brush the inside blending is a different shade of green. I quite like it when I stumble upon happy accidents!

      Beast Friends 2

      Once the ink blended background was completely dry I white heat embossed the three trees from the Beast Friends stamp set repeatedly across my card. I was going to leave it this way, but I decided to add a bit of shine with a gold ink from the Gansai Tambi Starry Colors watercolor palette. I’m so glad I did! To match the gold watercoloring I heat embossed a gold sentiment onto a strip, popped up my sentiment and yeti, and added some gold glittery enamel dots around the card.

      I love how the gold and green play off each other, don’t you?! Thanks for joining me! I hope you’re inspired to break out your Christmas supplies and get crafty!

    • Soft Heat Embossed Lilac Snowflakes

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Oct 27th

      I just can’t wait for the first snow to fall! Where I live it’s not uncommon to have a dusting or two before Halloween!

      HE Snowflakes


      This card is the result of a happy accident – but I love the look! I sprayed the back of the Echo Park Magical Snowfall Stencil a little too heavily with Pixie Spray and I didn’t wait long enough for the spray to dry before adding it to my cardstock. I pressed Versamark ink over the stencil and when I removed it and added my Lilac Pearl embossing powder the powder actually stuck to the background. I LOVE it! I think it looks like the soft flurries of snow that picks up and blows around in the wind!

      HE Snowflakes 2

      The little snowman is from the Avery Elle Christmas Magic stamp set. I wanted him to match my heat embossed background, so I used some BV Copic Markers to color his hat and scarf. The sentiment is from the Sunny Studio Stamps Bundled Up stamp set. I thought it fit this card perfectly!

      HE Snowflakes 3

      I added all of my die cut elements onto my card and finished it off with some string tied in a bow. Head over to the Scrapping for Less store to find these products and more for your Holiday cards!

    • Bundled Up Circle Card

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Oct 13th

      Christmas is in full swing at Scrapping for Less! And it truly will be here before you know it!

      Red Penguin


      I’m a lover of classic Christmas colors! – red, green, gold! Gorgeous! I ink blended some Candied Apple Distress Ink onto a piece of cardstock keeping the ink darker towards the center and lighter towards the outside. I used a slightly darker color of ink – Fired Brick – and stenciled the Echo Park Magical Snowfall Stencil over the ink blending and die cut the panel with a stitched circle die. I thought the background needed something more, so I flicked on some metallic gold watercolor.

      Red Penguin 2

      I super love the Bundled Up stamp set from Sunny Studio Stamps because you can build your own penguin! I stamped the penguin and a bunch of accessories and colored them with classic Christmas colored Copic markers and trimmed them out with my scissors and added them to my die cut circle and stamped a sentiment under the penguin. I wanted to add a little more gold to my card, so I die cut a foiled piece of cardstock with a slightly larger die cut circle and added it to a circle card base. Check out the video above to see how I made that!

      Red Penguin 3

      This card has so much shine! And I love the subtle snowflakes in the background! Thanks for stopping by!

    • September 2019 FOTM 5 Cards 1 Kit (plus a few more!)

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Oct 6th

      Hello! It’s time for my monthly Scrapping for Less Flavor of the Month five cards one kit video! Because of product issues this video is a bit late this month, so I tried to make up for it by creating some extra cards with the kit this month! Instead of my usual five cards I’m sharing EIGHT!

      Sept kit


      Fall is one of my favorite seasons – it comes in close behind winter – and the products in this kit were so inspiring that I couldn’t help but to create more and give you extra inspiration!

      Sept kit 2

      The papers in the first collection are ADORABLE! The pumpkin patch patterned paper is my FAVORITE! I created an easy framed scene with the cute kid cardstock pieces and a simple shaker card with the stamp set!

      Sept kit 3

      Sweater weather is the name of the game for the second collection! I used some of the stickers and patterned papers to create a simple banner card and I used repeat stamping to create an almost one layer stamped card.

      Sept kit 4

      Okay. Let’s be honest. THESE CARDS ARE MY FAVORITE!!! They scream fall and cool and comfy sweater weather! I die cut some of the patterned paper and pieced them onto ink blended backgrounds! So easy but really packs a punch!

      Sept kit 5

      The little moose in the fourth collection is the most adorable thing in the world! I sure wish we had moose where I live! I paired him with a die cut sentiment included in the Banana Split level kit!

      Sept kit 6

      To finish off the kit I used the stamp set in the Banana Split kit to create another almost one layer card! Watch the video at the beginning of this post to see how easy it was to create those clouds! And let me know in the comments which card is your favorite! See you soon!

    • Soft Stenciled Snowflakes

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Sep 29th

      Hi everyone! I’m a lover of classic Christmas colors – but every now and then I feel the urge to create with soft pastel colors!

      Pink Snowflakes

       


      This card is very easy to create and even to mass produce if you want! I started with a piece of light pink cardstock that I die cut with a stitched rectangle die. I sprayed the back of the Echo Park Magical Snowfall Stencil with some Pixie Spray and and pounced on some white pigment ink over the stencil. I love the look of the soft white on the pastel pink! If you wanted to have crisp white snowflakes you could use Versamark Ink and white embossing powder – but I like the look of the soft snowflakes.

      Pink Snowflakes 2

      I die cut a large snowflake from some gold foiled cardstock to use as my center piece and added some coiled silver thread for added interest. My sentiment is from the Avery Elle Christmas Magic stamp set and I heat embossed it with gold powder to match the snowflake die cut. And that’s it! See what I mean! Super easy! Thanks for joining me!

    • Pinkfresh Studio Autumn Colored Fancy Blooms

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Sep 15th

      Don’t you just love the colors of Autumn?! I do! And I love coloring floral images with yellow and orange to make a fall bouquet!

      Autumn Floral

      I stamped out one of the bouquets from the Pinkfresh Studio Fancy Blooms stamp set and used Copic markers to color in the image. I used R08, YR09, and YR07 for the orange flower. The yellow flower I used YR04, Y17, and Y15. The leaves are BG78 and BG75 and the brown sprigs are E79 and E74.

      Autumn Floral 2

      I cut out a few of my favorite patterns from the Lawn Fawn Fall Knit Picky paper pad with stitched dies and adhered them to a card front. I trimmed out my colored bouquet and added it to the stitched oval with foam squares. I stamped the sentiment from the Sunny Studio Stamps Beautiful Autumn stamp set onto a strip of patterned paper with Walnut Stain Distress Oxide ink and added it on top of my bouquet.

      Autumn Floral 3

      I added a bit of shimmer to my bouquet with Liquid Pixie Dust to finish the card! Thanks for stopping by today!

    • DoodlePop Koala with Lynnea Hollendonner

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Aug 18th

      Hi, everyone! I am working with the super fun Find it Trading Wild Animals paper pad and a cute cute cute koala Doodlepop from Doodlebug Designs! And you can purchase these items at the Scrapping for Less store!

      Koala

      I’ve never used a Doodlepop from Doodlebug Designs before – but seriously it made this card so easy! No coloring or fussy cutting required! And there’s even dimension built in! How fabulous! I had an idea to pair the koala with a sunrise backdrop and sandy foreground.

      Koala 2

      I started by using a ray stencil to add some quick yellow sun rays to the bottom of my card. I looked through the Find it Trading Wild Animals paper pad and found a brown tone on tone paper and when I turned it on the side it looked like sand. Perfect for my simple scene! I cut a strip about an inch and a quarter wide and added it to the bottom of my card. Then I added my Koala Doodlepop right on top! So effortless!

      Koala 3

      I needed the perfect sentiment to finish my card, so I used some brown ink to stamp a sentiment from the Hero Arts Color Layering Red Panda stamp set. More of these Doodlepops are definitely on my wish list! They make cardmaking a breeze! Watch my video below to see just how easy this card is to make!

    • Hero Arts Color Layering Red Panda

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Aug 4th

      Hey it’s Lynnea! I love the simplicity of color layering stamps! I really dislike coloring, so stamping and building

      layers is perfect for me! I used the Color Layering Red Panda stamp set from Hero Arts from Scrapping for Less today!

      Red Panda

      It was so easy to use some reds and oranges to stamp and layer the red panda image. Three steps and you have a realistic looking critter!

      Red Panda 2

      I used some of the scene building stamps from the stamp set to create a simple bamboo background for my focal image. I wanted some light clouds in the background, so I used some Distress Ink and a clouds stencil. I stamped the sentiment in the bottom left corner.

      Red Panda 3

      So easy and simple! You could create a whole set of these and package them together as a gift! Enjoy the video tutorial!

    • Winston’s Lake House One Layer Card

      Posted at 8:00 am by Lynnea Hollendonner
      Jul 14th

      Hey, everyone! My family spent this past week at the lake, so it’s super fitting that this month’s theme from Scrapping for Less is camping and outdoors!

      Lakehouse

      The Winston’s Lake House stamp set from Newton’s Nook Designs is SO cute! There are so many cute scene building stamps! I almost went with a lake scene – but the little bear and cabin images just spoke to me!

      Lakehouse 2

      This card came together super quickly with just a bit of masking! I stamped my sentiment first and then the bear image. When masking it’s important to remember to stamp whatever image you want to be in front first! I stamped the bear image onto masking paper and cut it out with scissors and placed it over my original stamped image and stamped my lake house. When I removed the masking paper it looks like the lake house is set behind the little bear! I used my Spectrum Noir Triblend markers to color them in.

      Lakehouse 3

      I didn’t to much to embellish the card – just some gems and clear glitter! Check out my video below!
