Tulip Bouquet Card - Lawn Fawnatics #197

Hey friends! It's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge, and it's Dies Only this round! I've been itching to use the Terrific Tulips, so I knew I had to start there. I trimmed the blooms out of Lilac, Sticky Note, and Ballet Slippers Cardstock and added shading with Shaded Lilac, Mustard Seed, and Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink. I cut the stems and leaves from Cilantro and shaded with Mowed Lawn.

I wanted to add a sprig of Lovely Lily of the Valley, so I cut the blossoms from Fog Cardstock and the stems and leaves from Algae. To gather my bouquet, I trimmed the Flower Bouquet Wrap from some Bitsy Blooms 6x6 patterned paper, and the bow from Guava Cardstock shaded with Worn Lipstick.

I covered the card base with more Bitsy Blooms patterned paper and added my bouquet at a little angle, leaving room for my Everyday Sentiment Banner with a phrase from Magic Heart Messages. I finished up with a sprinkle of Clear Sequins and some Stardust Stickles.

Happy Bee-day Card

Hey friends, today I've got a card that is sweet as honey! Haha. I was so excited to ink up the Bee My Gnomie stamp set from Clearly Besotted. Since there are no matching dies, I masked off a little scene with a post it, stamping on Spectrum Noir White Cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink and coloring with my Copic markers.

The focal panel was trimmed down with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Stackables. Then I cut down four different prints from the Simple Stories Say Cheese Classic Pooh 6x8 paper pad. Two of them I just used my paper trimmer, but on the other two I used the Lawn Fawn Scalloped Circle Stackables and Stitched Party Banners. I finished with some Clear Sequins and Stardust Stickles.

Six Ways to Color Bees

Hey friends, today I've got another Copic coloring video for you. I'm sharing six ways to color bees, using the Hello Bluebird Bee Happy stamp set. The images were stamped on Spectrum Noir Premium White Cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink. Hopefully this will give you some new ideas of different combos you can use for your Spring and Summer projects. I hope you enjoy the video!

Bookshop Pull 'n Slide Surprise Card - Lawn Fawnatics #196

Hey friends, today it's time for a new Lawn Fawnatics Challenge, and this is a really fun one! It's our Inspired By Challenge, where we take a card or project by another Lawn Fawn or Lawn Fawnatics design team member and use that to inspire our own project in tribute. There are so many incredible designers to choose from, but I decided to go with Megan Burnette, who inspires me all the time with her fun, full scenes and gorgeous color palettes.

This is the card of Megan's that I chose as my inspiration. I just loved the bookshop theme, and I actually gave my version of this card to the staff at my local, independent bookstore for National Independent Bookstore Day last weekend. That bookstore is my happy place, and it's all thanks to the incredible staff who have made it such a welcoming space to be.

I combined so many different sets on this card, including Little Woodland Library, Little Woodland Library Friends, Simply Celebrate Hangouts, Apple-solutely Awesome, Den Sweet Den, Purrfectly Wicked, Virtual Friends Add-on, and the Porcupine for You Add-on. All of the images were stamped in Jet Black Ink and colored with Copic markers.

I did want to give my card a twist to make it a bit different than Megan's, so I turned it interactive by using the new Pull 'n Slide Surprise. I love the dimension that it creates on a card when you pull the tab, and the staff at the bookstore thought it was a super cool feature!

This one is definitely better seen in video than pictures, so if you'd like to see how it came together, click the thumbnail below, or you can also find the tutorial HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. Thanks so much for watching! I really appreciate your support! Have a wonderful day, and don't forget to play along with us at Lawn Fawnatics.

Purrfect Birthday Card Duo

Hey friends, today I've got TWO new projects to share, it's a cute kitty card duo! I have so many birthdays in my family in May, so I am desperately in need of more birthday cards. So I decided to do more multiples. Both of these cards feature the adorable images from the Honey Bee Meow & Furever stamp set, which I stamped on Catherine Pooler Favorite White Cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink.

Because I don't own the matching dies to this set, I trimmed down the panels with the Lawn Fawn Lacy Rectangle Stackables, then colored them with my Copic markers to match the layers of Carta Bella Secret Garden 6x6 patterned paper. I finished up with a trio of clear sequins and some Stardust Stickles.
