Hello Everyone! I have a fun summer card to share with you today for the current Lawn Fawnatics Challenge. For this challenge, we encourage you to create a project using only dies.
If you love Lawn Fawn, you should definitely follow us on that site– we have a fabulous team that offers inspiration and chances to win gift certificates to Lawn Fawn!
Before I share my card, I wanted to remind you that I recently launched three new online classes! Kits are available for all three; you can find all the details here.

Alright, now to the fun project I have to share with you-
Mermaid Vibes, Lawn Fawnatics
I adore the new border dies from Lawn Fawn, so I wanted to play with one of them. I die-cut a bunch of the Scalloped Arches Border out of Distress Watercolor Cardstock, I adhered them to the bottom of another piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I then watercolored the scalloped borders and background using Distress Watercolor Pencils (Uncharted Mariner, Peacock Feathers, and Wilted Violet). I splattered some Peacock Feathers Distress Watercolor Pencils, and Light Gold Gansai Tambi Starry Colors Paints.
I then die-cut and assembled the Mermazing die out of Distress Watercolor Cardstock, and watercolored her with Distress Watercolor Pencils.
Hair: Abandoned Coral
Skin: Tattered Rose
Rosy Cheeks: Worn Lipstick
Top: Wilted Violet
Tail: Lucky Clover
Crown: Light Gold Gansai Tambi Starry Colors
For the sentiment, I die-cut the word “vibes” out of Finley’s ABCs and watercolored them with Uncharted Mariner Distress Watercolor Pencils. I added them to the card, and then added Distress Rock Candy to the letters.
I have two technique classes all about Distress Watercolor Pencils. If you want to learn more, click either image for details and register.
TIP: you can use the search feature here on my website and type in the name of any Lawn Fawn product, and you will see any inspiration I have shared with that item.
