Alright, now to the fun card I have to share with you-
Sending Smiles, Lawn Fawnatics
For this card, I started by stamping, coloring, and die-cutting a bunch of images from Butterfly Kisses. I used Lawn Fawn Jet Black and Lawn Fawn white cardstock which is Neenah Classic Crest 80 LB Smooth Solar White Paper and colored them in with Copic markers.
I used the above Copic markers to color in the images. You will find them linked below in the cardmaking supply list. With the swatches above you can easily substitute for similar colors, or even a different coloring medium. If you are interested in learning more about Copic coloring, or alcohol marker coloring, be sure to check out my Copic 101 post here.
I added a few details to the critters’ cheeks with a white gel pen. And to the bunny’s eyes and foxes nose, I added some black glaze pen.
I then die cut a stitched rectangle out of the textured side of Distress Watercolor Cardstock, and watercolored a sky and ground with Distress Ink. I used Lost Shadow and Salvaged Patina for the sky, and Mowed Lawn for the ground.
I then used a Quickie Glue Pen, and Prisma Glitter and added some sparkle to the shadow on the clouds and butterfly net. I also added some glitter to the center of the flowers, and the shadows of the butterfly wings.
I arranged the scene onto the stitched rectangle adhering some of the images with glue tube and some with foam squares. I then stamped the small butterfly trail from Butterfly Kisses Flip Flop. I set this aside.
I cut a piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock to be 8.5″ x 5.5″, and on the smooth side, I ink blended some clouds using the Slimline Cloudy Stencils, and Lost Stadow Distress Ink.
I used Simon Says Stamp blender brushes (that I store in my favorite brush caddy). As always when I use stencils I used the Make Art Stay-tion and whenever I am ink blending I love to use the Ink Stands to hold my ink pads, I also use a small mister bottle filled with Isopropyl Alcohol, to quickly clean my stencils with a Flour Sack Cloth.
I then did a little ink smooshing on another piece of Distress Watercolor Cardstock using Saltwater Taffy and Abandoned Coral Distress Ink. Next, I diecut some butterflies from Pop-Up Butterfly and Layered Butterflies. I die-cut the top layers and the bodies of the butterflies from Storm Cloud Cardstock.
I started by adding the pop-up butterfly to the center of the card with 1/8″ tape. I then added the other butterflies to the background. For the sentiment, I die cut the word “smile” from Scripy Smile, and an “s” from Scripty Hugs. I cut the “s” off of “hugs” and layered it onto the word “smile”.
I stamped some butterfly trails and added some Chunky glitter here and there with glossy accents. I added the stitched rectangle that I created the scene on, to the front of the card. I also added a little word fetti “sending” so the card reads “sending smiles”
I hope you find this card inspiring, and that you join us in the challenge! You could win a $50 Gift Certificate from Lawn Fawn!!
