Hello everyone! I’m here to share with you a fun post for World Cardmaking Day. Happy WCMD to everyone!!! I was invited by Scrapbook & Cards Today to celebrate World Cardmaking Day with them and their readers Be sure to read to the end of this post as there are some GIVEAWAY details from me, Lawn Fawn and Scrapbook & Cards Today!
Before I get to that I wanted to be sure to mention that I also announced today the details of a fun online Lawn Fawn class I am offering. You can read more about that here
Today I am featuring Lawn Fawn’s Happy Harvest stamp set in “one stamp, three ways”. Happy Harvest has been around since 2015 and is one of my most favorite stamps sets from Lawn Fawn. Usually this time of year I am traveling and teaching in-person classes and I am always sure to sneak him in among all the new fall goodies in my class designs. Since I am unable to travel and teach this year I thought it would be fun to share him with all of you!
A little fun fact is all of Lawn Fawn’s images easily coordinate with each other- so this makes it really fun to create unique and different looks depending on where your creativity takes you. It also encourages you to keep using your older stamp sets even after you purchase new.
For all 3 cards, I used 3 of the same supplies: Happy Harvest, Peekaboo Backdrop, and Stitched Woodgrain Backdrop. Then depending on the theme of the card, or the color scheme I wanted to go with I added in some other Lawn Fawn supplies.
For this first card, I wanted to create a Halloween card. Lawn Fawn has a new set, Fox Costume Before n’ Afters, where you get to dress one of the foxes up into a costume, one of those costumes is a witch, so I thought it would be fun to dress the scarecrow up as a witch as well. Coloring the scarecrow in grays and purples and then adding the witch’s hat from Hats Off To You.
For this next card, I wanted to recreate a color scheme I recently used on a fall card, that you can see here. I loved the orange, yellow, red, and teal together so much it inspired me on this card. I see this card as a fun one to send out closer to Thanksgiving, especially since I added in Thankful Mice. The pile of leaves and rake are from Jump For Joy. I just love the richness of the colors on this card.
For this last card, I wanted it to be a bit more playful and set the scene of what you would see heading out to an orchard in the fall. I had all intentions to color the scarecrow in a bit more traditional colors, with blue overalls, etc especially since my other 2 were non-traditional, but as I colored all the other images on the card I was inspired to add in some more green. The barrel of apples is from Thanks a Bushel, then I also used Caramel Apple, Cutie Pie, Pick of the Patch, and How Ya Bean? Candy Corn Add-On.
Lastly, one detail I added on all three scarecrows is a plaid shirt. I did this by using a coordinating marker color to draw in diagonal lines. Don’t think too much about it, and they don’t have to be perfect for it to turn out cute!
There is certainly no need to have all these different sets, I just hope this post inspires you to look at what you DO have and see what you can combine and create with. Who’s to say that the scarecrow can’t be on a Valentine’s card? Or maybe at the beach? OOH! This mermaid here might just have to try that one!
You can even see some more inspiration with the Happy Harvest set here.

Oh my gosh! Your cards are just so adorable! I so love the brightness of colors for each of them! And I do really love your added crisscross striping to the scarecrows shirts too!
Fabulous cards! Love the elements you used to create these fun cards!
So cute! I love seeing all your designs and ideas they inspire me to make more cards!
Beautiful & cute cards Jenn. I love combing my stamp sets to make a card just right for the receiver. I can’t choose just one of your 3 cards as a favorite as I like all of them.
Great cards. My favorites are the last two.
I love your cards. They are beautiful . They tell a story.
Your cards are all fabulous!
