LF Inspiration Week: Oh Gnome!

Hi everyone! I hope you're excited because today is the start of the Lawn Fawn Inspiration and Release week! All of the new products will be available on Thursday, February 21st. In the mean time, the design team will be sharing lots of inspiration for you!

Today, we're sharing projects that feature the new Oh Gnome! stamp and die set!

This new set is so sweet and can be used for so many different occasions. I used it today to create a birthday card! To create this card, I started by die cutting a piece of Bristol Smooth cardstock with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables die and ink blending it with Mermaid ink. Then, I used the Simple Grassy Hillsides and Stitched Garden Border to add the grass and ground. I ink blended the grass and ground with Freshly Cut Grass and Doe ink respectively. Then, I attached the scene to a white card base with double sided tape.

I stamped all of the images from this scene onto Neenah cardstock and colored them with Copic markers. Then, I used the coordinating die cuts to cut the images and arranged them on the scene. The images are attached with either foam tape or liquid glue.

After that, I stamped the sentiment at the top in black ink and added a few hearts stamped in Wild Rose ink. I think it's so cute that you can stack the presents in the wheel barrel to look like someone is getting a ton of gifts for their birthday!

Check out the Lawn Fawn blog for more inspiration! I'll be back again tomorrow with another card to share with you! Have a great day! :)

LF Inspiration Week: Christmas Dreams

Hello! I'm back again to share another card with you for the Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week! Today the design team is sharing projects that feature the Christmas Dreams set.

I started by stamping the images on white cardstock, coloring with Copic markers, and die cutting with the coordinating dies. I took a piece of white cardstock slightly smaller than the card base, and used the Outside In Stitched Scalloped Circle die to create a window to frame the scene. 

I used Mermaid and Doe ink to create a simple ink blended background, and then I attached the images with foam tape. I also used foam tape to attach the white cardstock panel. I really like how simple and cute this card turned out! Here is a close up:

Thank you so much for visiting today! Check out the rest of the projects from the design team on the Lawn Fawn blog! :)

CardMaps Sketch

Hi everyone! Can you believe that it's already August?! Where has the summer gone? We're trying to fit in a few more family activities before the school year starts again! Do you have anything fun planned for the rest of the summer?

This month, the Lawn Fawn team partnered with PageMaps to share some card sketch inspiration! You can find a full list of cards under the CardMaps tab. I used the sketch shown above to create this card:

For the background, I inked a piece of white cardstock with Mermaid, Fish Tank, Walnut, and Doe ink. Then, I used the Stitched Windy Backdrop to make the background look like waves, and also the Stitched Outside In Circle Stackables to frame the sentiment. The images are from Mermaid For You and are all colored with Copic Markers. I added some bubbles stamped in Fish Tank ink, and a few blue embellishments that I had in my craft stash.

Thanks for stopping by! And if you're ever stumped on what to create, check out the different sketches available on the PageMaps page! :)

Lawnscaping #131 - Off Kilter

Good morning everyone! I'm so excited to be back! It's really hard to find time to craft with two kiddos now, but I'm so glad that I was able to make a card for the new Lawnscaping Challenge!

The theme for this challenge is off kilter - to use at least one element on an angle. I decided to make a cute little scene and I attached it to my card at an angle with washi tape!

This card features Lawn Fawn's "Critters Down Under," "Stitched Journaling Card," "Simple Stitched Hillside Border," "Chit Chat" stamp and die, and various inks - Wild Rose, Mermaid, Merman, Doe, and Freshly Cut Grass. This card makes me smile and I can't wait to send it to a friend for her birthday! Here is a close up on the scene:

The sponsor for this challenge is Ellen Hutson, and the winner will receive a $25 gift certificate! I hope that you're able to play along, and I can't wait to see what you create! :)

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day! :)
