Tropical Vibes, Lawn Fawn

Hello everyone! I’m so excited to be sharing a fun Lawn Fawn card with you today! Before I get to the details of the card I wanted to let you know that all of my online Lawn Fawn classes are available to take. Even though the LIVE portion is over, you can still take the classes, watch the replays and get access to the class resources. I am also still available in the class groups for any questions you may have. There have been a lot of fun classes these past few months, you should try one out! More details here

Tropical Vibes, Lawn Fawn

I was clearly still feeling the “tropical vibes” after my last online class, and in the tropical mood to create this card. The star of the show is the new Happy Hibiscus dies from Lawn Fawn. I also used the new Tropical Leaves dies. 

A lot of inky fun was had to create these pieces. I started with some Distress White Heavystock, making inky backgrounds to die cut from. I used regular Distress Ink, because I wanted the bright translucent properties that the ink has. Here is a breakdown of the color combos I used:

Hibiscus Flowers

• Kitsch Flamingo
• Picked Raspberry
• Spiced Marmalade (piston)
• Squeezed Lemonade (piston)

Leaf combo #1

• Shabby Shutters
• Twisted Citron

Leaf combo #2

• Lucky Clover
• Cracked Pistachio

Leaf combo #3

• Rustic Wilderness
• Mowed Lawn

Leaf combo #4

• Pine Needles
• Peacock Feathers

For the sentiment, I diecut the word “Tropical” from Finley’s ABCs and “Vibes” from Stitched Olivers ABCs.

I ink blended “tropical” with Kitsch Flamingo and Squeezed Lemonade, overlapping the blending to give a pretty orange in the middle. I ink blended “vibes” with Mermaid Lagoon and Salvaged Patina.

I arranged all of these fun inky pieces on a slimline stitched rectangle, keeping the background white really allows all the color to POP and all the inky texture to really show.

If you want to learn more about Distress inks and the techniques I often use, and if you would like to become more comfortable with them I highly recommend taking my Distress Ink Technique class. Here are just a few reviews from people who have taken the class. You can see others in my shop, as well as register for the class here
