Yay!!....I'm Guest-Designing at Lawnscaping this Month!!!!

Helloooo :0)... Well I pretty much blurted it out in the post title didn't I !!!

I was so excited to receive an email from the lovely Laurel Beard asking me to join the Lawnscaping girls this month... playing with such fun stamps, it wasn't a hard decision *wink*
So here I am with the first challenge of October and it's time to mix your favourite Lawn Fawn stamps or dies with Patterned Paper because we are having a ......

I just had to treat myself to some of the new release Lawn Fawn Stamp sets and whilst they are all delicious, I really wanted to ink up Winter in the Park...

I love the peaceful wintery scenes you can make with this set :0)

I've used a strip of snowy paper from the Fa La La paper pad and stamped the lamp-posts in dark grey, giving them shadow and highlights with white pencil and black pen... I love how frosty they look. The twinkling lights and lanterns have been given a glow by applying chalk on and around them.... you have to trust me when I say the camera has not done it any justice :0(

The bench is stamped on a seperate piece of card and given the same treatment as the lamp-posts for a frosty feel then cut away and mounted on foam pads to make a foreground piece.... I just had to glitter that snow cap along the back of the bench :0)

I hope you join in the fun this week, our sponser is the ridiculously well stocked Simon Says Stamp...... check out the Lawnscaping blog for details and to see what the DT girls have made to inspire you to :0)
