Hi, everyone! I am here today with the latest Lawn Fawnatics Challenge. If you love Lawn Fawn you should definitely follow us over on that site- we have a fabulous team that offers inspiration and chances to win gift certificates to Lawn Fawn! This challenge is to use the above images as inspiration for your project.
Before I share my card I wanted to let you know that registration has opened up for my next online Lawn Fawn card class. Mermazing is an opportunity to create 3 unique reveal wheel interactive cards from start to finish with me! There will be dedicated time to go over Copic coloring of all the images and Distress Ink techniques LIVE, as well as tips and tricks when putting together reveal wheel interactive cards. Then there will be dedicated time to assembling the 3 cards. As in my in-person classes, this is when I will share tips, tricks, and processes with you. You can sign up and read more details here.
If you want to be sure to hear about all of these fun announcements, be sure to subscribe to my email newsletter.
Alright, now to the card I have to share with you-
Life is Good, Lawn Fawnatics
Lawn Fawnatics “Create a Scene” challenge wraps up this Sunday, May 2nd at 11:59PM ET but there is still time to join the fun! I created this card inspired by where I live, Cape Cod. Cape Cod, Massachusetts is very much a travel destination, and this past year with the pandemic it has been hard. Not as many visitors during the summer months.
You all might even remember helping me raise money for the Cape Cod Resilience Fund.
Fast forward a year later, and as people are getting vaccinated they are excited to get out of their houses and plan mini-vacations, which is what Cape Cod is perfect for! So, Cape Cod is seeing a record number of reservations for hotel rooms, rental houses, and air bnb’s. Makes me happy for this little community I live in, there are a lot of small businesses that are going to welcome the extra tourist dollars.
Anyways, this has been on my mind a lot this spring and inspired this card. A typical Cape Cod day in the summer, exploring the coastlines, visiting lighthouses, looking out on the water. I can’t wait for summer!
Ok, now for the details about my card. I started by ink blending 4 panels of Distress White Heavystock. 3 with Mermaid Lagoon, and 1 with Salty Ocean Distress Ink. I then die cut them with Stitched Wave Borders and the single one with Stitched Simple Wave Borders. I also die cut these out of the largest Outside In Stitched Rectangle die.
I then stamped a variety of images from Life is Good, Tiny Friends, Smooth Sailing, and All the Clouds. I colored these with Copic Markers. I also added a touch of Prisma glitter here and there with a Quickie Glue pen.
Next I die cut “GOOD” out of Oliver’s ABC’s and ink blended a gradient on them with Festive Berries Distress Ink. I then added Prisma glitter to the red part of the letters. As I was assembling the card, I thought it would be cute to swap out one of the “O’s” for a crab instead.
Lastly, using Smitty’s ABCs I stamped out “Life Is” and some seagulls. This is all VERY Cape Cod, right down to the nautical colors I chose.
Creating scenes with Lawn Fawn stamps is some of my most favorite things to do! I hope this inspires you to play along with the challenge.
Organizing TIP:
I wanted to quickly share this tip for organizing any smaller stamps and dies you have. As I was snipping apart the tiny friends dies, I quickly realized they all look VERY similar. So I took a few minutes with my label maker and labeled the stamps and dies to make it faster and easier to use this set. The Lawn Fawn 5×7 magnetic boards are perfect to slip into the stamp pocket with the coordinating stamp set.
Join us!
We host a new challenge every 2 weeks. We randomly pick a winner so really ANYONE can win! You just need to follow the theme and use at least one Lawn Fawn product.
