Inspiration on the Lawn Fawn Blog

 Hi Everyone!

I'm here to share an interactive card I made for inspiration on the Lawn Fawn Blog . I used the awesome picture changer dies and the beautiful with some of the new wonderful goodies that were released in June.
I made this for my niece who is about to try for her driver's license this fall but it is a card to send to anyone about to do something new or have any kind of challenge ahead of them! 






I created the picture changer card following the tutorial Kelly Marie has recorded (You can watch it HERE) but changed the front panel to use a round window instead with the lovely MAGIC IRIS TROPICAL LEAVES ADD-ON as a frame.

Karin's extra inspiration for LawnFawnatics Challenge # 106 Card Sketch

Hi Everyone!

I'm here to share a card for the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge. This time we have a fun  Card Sketch to inspire you and this is my take:











I started by diecutting the elements for a Reveal wheel card and stamped the sentiments I wanted. I then inked the center of the front panel and spattered it with some water for texture. I then diecut some florals from  ACORN-HOUSE and -SPRING-SPRIG  and then die cut LINDA from gold cardstock to personalize the card. 

This time I used the sketch as inspiration more than a sketch to follow exactly.
