Friends Warm the Heart
Hello Crafters!
Halloween is behind us and we are heading straight for those winter months. I know I, like most of you, hate that I buy stamps that I can only use for that specific holiday.
But what if you could use them year round? Guess what? YOU CAN!!
Let me show you 🙂
See that  house? Yeah, it’s the spooky mansion from Lawn Fawn’s Happy Haunting. I know right?!
I love stretching my stamps and this is a great way to do it. A few color choices and pairing it with other stamps sets can allow us all to use the “specific” holiday stamps whenever we want!
I paired Lawn Fawn’s Happy Haunting set with their Toboggan Together and Making Frosty Friends. Goodbye spooky old mansion, hello charming farm house. Landscape dies can really help you pull a scene together quickly too.
You can see it all come together in the video below!
The Copic markers I used are: C1, C3, C5, C7, C9, W1, W3, W5, W7, E31, E55, E57, E59,
R20, R32, R35, R29, R59, YR09, Y38, Y00, YG93, YG95, YG97, and YG99
I also used Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, and Shaded Lilac Distress Inks. Some clear Wink of Stella helped it shine 🙂
I hope you’re inspired to use your holiday stamp sets differently.
Don’t forget if you want a chance to win a $25.00 gift card to MarkerPOP you can check out my challenge here.
Thanks for dropping in!
