June New Release!

Hey everyone! There's a new Lawn Fawn release and it is perfect for summer! There are so many cute items in this release, so let's take a look at them.

This first card features the new Grassy Pasture Backdrop die and it helps create some quick and easy cards! I needed a cute critters to be playing in the grass, so I added a sheep from the Critters on the Farm stamp set.

To add some extra details to the grassy pasture, I added a few tufts of grass and a few small flowers. The sentiment was created with the alphabet letters from Quinn's ABCs, the Scripty Hello die, and the Scripty Hello Outline Add-on die. To give the sentiment an extra pop of detail, I die cut the hello outline in pearlescent vellum - it's so pretty in person!

The next new set that I have to share is the Build-A-Bee die. How cute are those little bees and bee hives?! These are actually mini cards that open up to write a message on the inside!

The sentiments are also from a new stamp set - Jam and Honey Sentiments. There are so many sweet sentiments included in that set that pair perfectly with these bees!

Here's another look at these cute beehive cards. For the bees, I used the pearlescent vellum on the wings to give them a shiny and clear detail. They are so sweet!

The Build-A-Drink Mason Jar Jam and Honey Add-On die gives a summery feel to the Build-A-Drink Mason Jar die. I love that fabric looking covering for the lid and the sweet bow!

I wanted to add a bunch of fruits around the jam jar, so I used strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries from the Build-A-Drink Cocktail, Build-a-drink Mason Jar Jam and Honey Add-on, and Build-A-Drink Mason jar, respectively. The little berries are such a sweet touch to this card!

Who doesn't love a refreshing cup of lemonade in the summer!? The new Build-A-Drink Pitcher is perfect for that! I use this new die to create a fun shaker card with another new products - lemon clay pieces! The clay pieces are so cute and I can't wait to use them on future cards!

The background paper is from the Giddy for Gingham collection and such a fun mix of colors. I also used the new Scripty Smile Outline Add-on die to help highlight the Scipty Smile die.

If you like lemons and lemonade, you'll love this new stamp set! The mice in the Make Lemonade set are having a blast at their lemonade stand. I wanted the mice to have easy access to lemons, so I created a lemon tree with the tree from the Heart Tree stamp set. It turned out so cute!

I used a few different card stocks to help create this card - Mermaid and Cilantro for the background, and Peacock for the sentiment. I also used the Outside In Stitched Rectangle, Simple Grassy Hillside, and Everyday Sentiment Banner dies to create the background and sentiment.

I love the bag of sugar and crate of lemons from this new set. They help create such an adorable scene!

The last project that I have to share with you is a new treat box! These Strawberry Treat boxes are very easy to assemble and they look just like strawberries! The Jam and Honey Sentiments pair perfectly with these sweet treat boxes.

Which new products for this release are your favorite? I'm really excited about the new clay pieces and those cute mice!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you all have a crafty day!

You've Got Mail!

Hey, hey! It's time again for another Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week! The design team has been sharing projects this week that include a birthday card, graduation card, Father's Day card, and a fun surprise - three stamp sets re-released from the vault!

The You've Got Mail, Wish You Were Here, and Wish You Were Here, Too were all released from the vault and are available for a limited time. Once they are gone, they will be back in the vault, so grab them while you can!

I have always loved the postcard from the You've Got Mail stamp set, so I used that to create a thinking of you card. I used the Scripty Hello die to die cut black card stock for the sentiment. I also used the Pint-sized Patterns Summertime paper collection for the background paper.

To add some extra details around the postcards, I added a few stars from the A Birdie Told Me stamp set. 

My next card to share is for Father's Day and it features the Build-A-Toolbox die set. I love the cute tools that can be made with this set! I used a variety of card stocks to make the different tools, as well as the Blue Jay card stock to cut the letters for "dad' with the Louie's ABCs alphabet dies.

The sentiment below the "dad" letters is from the Henry's Build-A-Sentiment: Tools stamp set. It's a perfect set to use for Father's Day cards!

This next card is perfect for graduation season and can be recreated in any color combo! I used the Louie's ABCs die to create the "congrats" letters, and decorated a few of them with the caps from the All the Grad Caps stamp set.

To finish the card, I added a few clear sequins around the letters.

This last card is so sweet and is perfect for birthday cards. I used the Big Blossom Flowers die set to create this flower bouquet, and I layered the flowers on a stitched scalloped oval panel.

The patterned papers are from the Bitsy Blooms paper pack, and I also added a Scripty Hello sentiment, along with a white heat embossed "birthday."

I hope you have enjoyed the inspiration this week and I can't wait to see what you all create! Have a great week, friends!

 

Mother's Day Cards with Lawn Fawn

Hi friends! The start of May always makes me think of Mother's Day, so I wanted to share some past Mother's Day cards that feature Lawn Fawn stamps and dies! There are some of my favorites over the years and I hope that it gives you some ideas for the moms in your life!

Interactive cards are always so much fun to create (and receive!) and this is one of my favorite past Mother's Day cards. This platform pop-up card showcases the giant happy Mother's Day die. The snails and flowers from the Gleeful Gardens stamp set creates such a sweet scene.

The mice from the Dandy Day stamp set are perfect for Mother's Day cards! I love that little mouse near the bottom that is making a wish on the dandelion seeds. The ink blended background creates the perfect scene for the mice, and the Simple Wavy Banners help mimic the blowing breeze. 

How cute are those kangaroos?! The Kanga-rrific and Kanga-rrific Add-On sets are perfect for a cute and punny Mother's Day card. I love the little add-on that the kangaroos can hold, like the bouquet of flowers in this card.

Moms always enjoy a bouquet of flowers, so why not create a paper bouquet! This card uses the Terrific Tulips die set in a variety of card stock colors. I love that you can make the tulips different sizes by adding 2 or 3 petals to the stem. The Scripty Mom die helps to make a quick and easy sentiment.

This is another one of my favorite Mother's Day cards. I hear "mom" so many times a day, so this card feels like an accurate representation of my day! Most of the sentiments are from the Happy Happy Happy Add-On: Family stamp set, and the speech bubbles are from the All the Speech Bubbles.

This last card also features a variety of flowers that mom's would love! This card uses the Terrific Tulips, Darling Daffodils, Lovely Lily of the Valley, and Sunny Sunflower. The scripty mom die looks so pretty in the gold glitter card stock!

I hope you have enjoyed the Mother's Day inspiration! Have a great day and happy crafting!

Lawn Fawn April Release

 Hello friends! It's been quite a while since I have shared cards on my blog, but I wanted to share the new Lawn Fawn release with you all!

This card features the new Mice Flowers stamp set, and those two mice are so sweet! I wanted the mice to look small with the flowers, so I added the tall grass from the Gleeful Gardens stamp set.

For the sentiment, I used the Scripty Friends cut from Guava cardstock, Scripty Friends Add-On die cut in vellum, and a sentiment from the Mice Flowers stamp set that was white heat embossed onto black card stock. I love how this little scene turned out, especially with those cute little bumblebees!

The next card that I have to share includes the geese from the new Silly Goose Rain or Shine stamp set. Ah, this one is so cute! The little rain boots?! Adorable!

I used a Stitched Scalloped Oval stackable for the background for the geese, and I lightly inked it with blue ink. After stamping and die cutting the images, I added them to the oval with foam tape.

I attached the oval to a card base that was covered with Gleeful Gradients patterned paper. I finished by adding a white heat embossed sentiment and a few white sequins around the design. 

This next card is perfect for Father's Day! This card uses the new Workshop Backdrop dies along with the Build-A-Toolbox dies. I love that you can arrange the tools on the backdrop however you'd like! I used a variety of card stock colors to make the tools and Dolphin card stock for the background.

The silver metallic card stock is perfect for the bolts and the shimmer neutral card stock works for the metal tools. For the sentiment, I used the Louie's ABCs to die cut the letters for dad, and then I used sentiments from the new Henry's Build-A-Sentiment tools stamp set. 

This card might be my favorite from the new release and I just love how it turned out! I started by die cutting a piece of white card stock with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle dies. I used the cloudy stencils to add clouds to the card stock panel. Then, I stamped and die cut a bunch of images from the All The Smiles, All The Clouds, and All The Grad Caps to use for the background. It was so much fun to arrange them and figure out a layout that I liked with all of the images.

The sentiment features the new Giant Outlined Yay die and it was cut with silver metallic and Blue Jay yardstick. After I attached the sentiment with foam tape, I added a few sequins around the background. 

This next card is perfect for Father's Day or a birthday card for the tool lovers in your life. This one also uses the Build-A-Toolbox die set (how cute are those tools?!) After die cutting  and glueing a bunch of tools, I arranged them onto a piece of patterned paper from the Pint-Sized Patterns Summertime paper collection. The tools really pop against the yellow background!

The sentiment is from the Henry's Build-A-Sentiment Tool set and was white heat embossed onto black card stock. If you can't tell, heat embossing if one of my favorite ways to add a sentiment to a card!

This is another adorable set that if perfect for Father's Day - Mice Tools! How sweet is that dad mouse teaching his young son!? I started by stamping, coloring, and die cutting some images from that stamp set, as well as the "Father's Day" sentiment. I used some blue patterned paper from the Pint-sized Patterns Summertime and Gleeful Gradients paper collections to create a fun background. The rest of the sentiment was created with the Scripty Happy and Scripty Happy Outline Add-on dies.

Here's a close up on those little mice. They're so cute!!

This next card features the I Like Small Butterflies stamp set, which is the freebie included on orders from the Lawn Fawn store on orders over $60. This set will only be available while supplies last, so make sure you order soon before they run out!

I used a white piece of card stock and stamp a bunch of small butterflies all over the background. I gave a few of them some cute trail lines, too! I wanted them to look like monarch butterflies, so I colored them all with orange and black Copic markers. I also outlines each of them with a light blue marker to help them pop against the background. Then, I used a white gel pen to add some details of the butterflies.

The sentiment is from the I Like Big Butterflies stamp set and is white heat embossed onto black card stock. I also used the Scripty Hello die and cut the "hello" out of Gleeful Gradients patterned paper (one of my favorite paper collections!).

I hope you have enjoyed all of these cards that feature the new Lawn Fawn release! I can't wait to see what you create with the new products! Happy crafting!

Thank You Cards

 Hi friends! I have a few thank you cards to share with you all! These cards all feature products from Lawn Fawn (my favorite craft company!)

The first thank you card features the Giant Outlined Thanks die. I used a shimmer acetate for the outline and black yardstick for the thanks letters.

I also added some fun, colorful scallops to the bottom of the card by die cutting patterned paper and white glittery card stock with the Scalloped Arches die. I finished the card by adding a few clear sequins around the sentiment.

My second thank you card features a variety of deep sea creatures! The fish are from the Anglerfish Flip Flop and the You Are Sublime stamp sets.

The background was fun to create, too! I ink blended layers of waves by using different shades of blue and the Ocean Waves Stencil.

The last thank you card for today uses the adorable Capybaras! stamp set! How cute are those capybaras!? I love the little oranges that come with that stamp set.

The sentiment was die cut from patterned paper with the Scripty Thanks die, and the sentiment is from the Henry's Build-A-Sentiment: Birthday stamp set.

I hope you have enjoyed the thank you cards for today! I'll be back again soon with more cards to share with you all! :)

Lawn Fawn June Release

 Hello friends! I hope you're all having a great summer so far! It's been hot and humid here in Pennsylvania, and we're staying cool with lots of popsicles and time in the pool.

I have a bunch of cards to share with you today that feature the new products from Lawn Fawn! There are a lot of cute products that are perfect for birthday cards.

This first card uses the new Build-A-Drink Bubble Tea Add-On die set. I used the dies to make a shaker cup with the Gleeful Gradients paper collection, and I added a Scripty Thanks die at the bottom for the sentiment.

My second card uses the Build-A-Cake and Build-A-Cake Add On die sets to create a birthday card. I love that this set can be used to create so many different styles and types of cakes.

The new Platform Pop-Up Wave Wrap Around Add-On die set makes the cutest interactive card! I used the Platform Pop-up die to make the base of the card, and then added the mermaids from the Mermaid for You stamp set, and the sentiment from the Shello, Friend stamp set.

Here's another look at the pop-up card. These are so fun to make and send to friends!

This next card was made as a birthday card, but it could be used for so many occasion! I used the Festive Piñata die, the Giant Let's Celebrate die, and a bunch of Gleeful Gradients paper. How cute are the little candy pieces?!

This is my favorite card from the release and it was so much fun to create! I used the Birthday Candle Stencils and a whole bunch of distress oxide inks to create the background. Then I added the sentiments with the Scripty Birthday die, Scripty Birthday Outline die, and the "happy" from the Build-A-Sentiment Birthday stamp set. This design would be fun to mass create to keep on hand for birthdays!

The next birthday card that I created was for someone special in my life - my Pap! He turned 93 this summer so he got a special card made just for him. This card features the Cake It Easy stamp set and a sentiment from the Henry's Build-A-Sentiment birthday stamp set.

And the last card that I have today is a trio of cards made with the Balloon Bunch die, the Scripty Happy die, the Scripty Happy Outline die, and adorable paper from the Gleeful Gradients paper collection. This is another card design that I plan to keep in stock - it's so cute!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope this gives you lots of card inspiration, especially birthday cards! Have fun crafting friends!
