Samantha’s Cute Sloth Valentine

- Nancy Krueger 1 Comment

We invite you to share your creativity by linking up your crafty projects at the Lots of Heart challenge post! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers. The Lots of Heart challenge will run for 3 weeks and be open until Sunday, February 6th at 11:59PM ET.

Samantha is with us today with inspiration that’s adorable and full of heart!

Samantha chose our cute sloths from I Like Naps and Hang in There to star in her beautiful design! She colored them with Zig Clean Color Brush markers and fussy cut them out.

For the heart she used an Outside In Stitched Heart which she inked then stenciled with the Starry Sky Stencil. After layering the sloths on the heart, she added it to a panel stamped with Woodgrain Backdrops. She finished the card with a white embossed sentiment from I Like Naps!

Thanks so much for sharing with us today, Samantha!

A Dreamy Scrapbook Page with Samantha

We are in the second week of our 3 week Inspired By challenge and we are so impressed with all the creativity you are sharing! If you haven’t joined the challenge yet, you still have plenty of time. The challenge closes on Sunday April 4th at 11:59PM ET.

Hi friends, it’s Samantha! The title of my scrapbook page “don’t let your dreams be dreams’ is a lyric from a Jack Johnson song Dreams Be Dreams.

My little Menn are getting older every day, and they don’t hesitate to tell me! But when I check on them at night, and they still cuddle their stuffed animals, and dream their little dreams, they’re still just the baby boys I used to rock to sleep!

To create my layout, I started by using the Starry Sky Stencil and translucent embossing paste to create the starry, textured background. Then once it was dry, I used watercolors in blues, mints and greys to create the swoopy background, over the stars! Once the watercolor was dry, I used the star stencil again and using only the largest star in the stencil and white embossing paste, I used added even more texture!

I used vellum, white cardstock and frosted gift bags from my stash to back my photos! Then I popped them up on foam tape, and attached it to the background. I stamped the small letters using Violet’s ABC’s around the swirls! The “dreams” words were die cut out of white cardstock with Cole’s ABCs. I added some grey and gold watercolor and popped them up with foam tape so they stand out a little more!



Thanks so much for sharing your gorgeous scrapbook page with us today, Samantha!

We can’t wait to see what inspires your creativity! Thanks for stopping by today!
