Karin on the Lawn Fawn Blog May

  Hi Everyone!

I'm here to share some inspiration on the Lawn Fawn Blog   Birthday Cards and Cards for friends you love are what I need the most! Also I like to make card designs that can easily be altered for another occasion. These cards could for example work wonderfully for Welcome Baby cards or Thank You cards too.







I started by diecutting the lovely wreaths and then colored them using copic markers. I kept one in pink and one in blue first planning to make Welcome Baby cards  -  but when I found the circle sentiments in my stash, I knew I wanted to make use of them for the center. This is a design that can be used for so many different occasions; bithdays, weddings, baby-card etc. The wonderful fancy scalloped rectangle is the perfect finish for any design (I think (-: )

LawnFawnatics Challenge # 125 Create a project using only dies

Hi Everyone!

I'm here to share a card for the new Lawn Fawnatics Challenge

This time our challenge is called: "Create a project using only dies"  and this is my take:





I have been making so many cards with the Strawberry dies I wanted to go in the complete opposite direction with this one (-:  - And also - It is always good to have some Christmas cards ready well in advance right???!!!???

I made a cardbase and diecut a window panel. I then diecut all my other decorations and inked the poinsettia and the forest border. I inked the bg at the same time making sure to mask the edges of my cardbase.

This is my take:





How to make this card:

I started by making a cardboard cover for my postit note pad. I then diecut a panel from white cardstock, stamped my snarky cat and masked him. I then inked the panel using one of many absolutely WONDERFUL stencils  Stencil BUBBLES from Tim Holtz. I stamped the sentiment before adding the panel to my folder.

Karin's Lawn Fawnatics Challenge inspiration for: Inspiration photo/Color Board - Cards for Guys

 Hi Everyone!

I'm here to share some more inspiration for our current  Lawn Fawnatics Challenge

This time our challenge is called: Inspiration photo/Color Board - Cards for Guys  and this is my take:






I used the colors as inspiration and then made a cardbase and cut a panel from the wonderful new FLOWER MARKET 6x6 paper. I then diecut the sentiment and layered it to get a shadow effect. Then added frowers from the Iris spring floral wreath add on that I'd colored using the colors from the inspiration board.
