Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #92 - Outstanding Occasions Part 2

 Hi All!


Lawn Fawn has this challenge blog where usually every two weeks a new challenge is posted.  Challenge #92 is called Outstanding Occasions.


For this challenge I created a second gender neutral baby card. I love the little clothes in the Little Bundle stamp set but I don't get a chance to use it as often a would like. I wanted to stay with the same idea as my first baby card but chance up the layout of the card. I used the mustard seed distress ink and the Starry Sky stencil to create the background on the pale yellow cardstock.


Supplies: White Cardstock, Yellow Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Stamp (Little Bundle, Scripty Sayings), Lawn Fawn Paper (Perfectly Plaid - Spring), Lawn Fawn Stencil (Starry Sky), MFT Stencil (Mini Clouds), Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Mustard Seed, Speckled Egg), Memento Black Ink, Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots, Wink of Stella (Clear Glitter)

Thanks Laurie

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #92 - Outstanding Occasions

 Hi All!


Lawn Fawn has this challenge blog where usually every two weeks a new challenge is posted.  Challenge #92 is called Outstanding Occasions.


For this challenge I created a gender neutral baby card. I love the little clothes in the Little Bundle stamp set so I wanted to create a clothes line with a few items that could be used for a neutral baby card. I also love how the Lawn Fawn stamp sets can be used together as I used the "All You Need Is Love" sentiment from the new Special Delivery stamp set and the "(And More Laundry)" sentiment from the Little Bundle stamp set. 


Supplies: White Cardstock, Yellow Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Stamp (Special Delivery, Little Bundle), Doodlebug Paper (Special Delivery), Memento Black Ink, Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots, Wink of Stella (Clear Glitter)

MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge - Sketch 532

  Hi All!


Every Wednesday on the My Favorite Things blog they post a new sketch challenge. This week's challenge was to use Sketch 523.


For this challenge I wanted to use the pattern paper to create a window of sorts to base the whole design of the card around. Using the MFT Watercolour Wash pattern paper I created two rectangles and 2 squares to create the "window" then using the Special Delivery stamp sets I created a scene of a package being delivered. I wanted this card to have a few different options of what it could be sent for. 


Supplies Used: White Smooth Cardstock, MFT Paper (Watercolour Wash - Blue, Party Patterns - Pink Stripe), Lawn Fawn Stamp (Special Delivery, Special Delivery Box Add-On, All The Clouds), Memento Black Ink, Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots, Stickles (Frosted Lace)

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #91 - New Year

 Hi All!


Lawn Fawn has this challenge blog where usually every two weeks a new challenge is posted.  Challenge #91 is called New Year.


For this challenge I wanted to use the silver confetti and sparkler idea and create a card that showed the party after the New Years Ball dropped like I have seen on tv from Times Square for many years. To create this effect I stamped out a party hat, balloons and confetti and coloured them in black/gold/silver. I also had them arranged on the card to show them either being thrown in the air or drifting sky ward. 

For the the sentiment I wanted to keep it simple with two speech bubbles. One with the sentiment of "Hello 2021" and the other of party hat. I also used the sketch for this week's challenge on the MFT Blog.


Supplies: White Cardstock, Black Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Stamp (A Birdie Told Me, Really High Five), Lawn Fawn Stencil (Starry Night), Lawn Fawn Die (Shutter Card), Memento Black Ink, Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Hickory Smoke), Stickles (Unicorn), Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #87 - Card Sketch Part 2

 Hi All!


Lawn Fawn has this challenge blog where usually every two weeks a new challenge is posted.  Challenge #87 is called Card Sketch.


For this challenge I couldn't decide between two stamp sets so I created two cards. One is a cute fall card using the Let's Go Nuts stamp set (which is posted in the part 1 post) and the second is a cute winter card using the Snow Bunnies stamp set.

I love the 2019 STAMPtember Snow Bunnies for Lawn Fawn stamp set from Simon Says Stamp. This is the first stamp I ever bought from the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember event. All the elements of this stamp set are super adorable, so much so that most of my Christmas cards last year had cute bunnies on them. I again wanted to create a circle scene in the center of the card but for this card I also added the metal topper and the string so that the circle scene became an ornament to hang in the middle of the card. I thought that the vellum circle around the circle scene helps to give the illusion of a glass ornament with the scene inside.


Supplies: White Cardstock, Blue Cardstock, Kraft Cardstock, Silver Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Stamp (Snow Bunnies for Lawn Fawn), Lawn Fawn Paper - Let It Shine (red & white stripes) - White Sparkle Paper, Lawn Fawn Die (Forest Border), Lawn Fawn Ink (Yeti), Lawn Fawn Stencil (Snowflake Trio), Circle Die (2), Vellum Paper, Memento Black Ink, Wink of Stella (Clear Glitter), Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots, Black Pen

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #87 - Card Sketch

 Hi All!


Lawn Fawn has this challenge blog where usually every two weeks a new challenge is posted.  Challenge #87 is called Card Sketch.


For this challenge I couldn't decide between two stamp sets so I created two cards. One is a cute fall card using the Let's Go Nuts stamp set and the second is a cute winter card using the Snow Bunnies stamp set, (which is posted in the part 2 post).

I love the new Let's Go Nuts stamp set from Lawn Fawn. The little squirrels are soooo adorable. I created this little scene in the centre of the card using a squirrel pulling a little wagon, pile of nuts and baby squirrel. I love the look of colour on colour backgrounds but I didn't have the same colour of brown to look good on kraft cardstock so I used white ink to stamp 3 other squirrels, the little nut and the little rake from the stamp set to create the background. I also used the little leaves pattern paper from the Into The Woods Remix to round out the design of the card. 


Supplies: White Cardstock, Green Cardstock, Blue Cardstock, Kraft Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Stamp (Let's Go Nuts), Lawn Fawn Paper - Into The Woods Remix (leaves), Lawn Fawn Die (Forest Border), Lawn Fawn Ink (Yeti), Circle Die Memento Black Ink, Wink of Stella (Clear Glitter), Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #85 - Awesome Autumn

 Hi All!


Lawn Fawn has this challenge blog where usually every two weeks a new challenge is posted.  Challenge #85 is called Awesome Autumn.


For this challenge I wanted to create a scene with a the new Let's Go Nuts stamp set. I love the little squirrels so I created a scene with the leaf pile, the napping squirrel and the squirrel throwing his arms up. The squirrel napping and the squirrel throwing leaves onto of the leaf pile really show two ways to enjoy the fall/autumn season. I popped all the leaves in the air and the leaf pile up while leaving the squirrels flat.


Supplies: White Cardstock, Green Cardstock, Lawn Fawn Stamp (Let's Go Nuts), Lawn Fawn Paper - Into The Woods Remix (leaves) & Orange Plaid Paper, Lawn Fawn Die (Stitched Hillside Borders), YNS Enamel Dots (Sunset Sparkle), Memento Black Ink, Wink of Stella (Clear Glitter), Various Copics, Lawn Fawn Glue Tube, Pop Dots
