August Inspiraton on the Lawn Fawn Blog

   Hi Everyone!

I'm here to share some inspiration on the LawnFawn blog. Today I wanted to inspire you to make some cute welcome baby cards. 

I started by making my cardbase and then cover the front with a slightly smaller panel to which I had stamped my sentiment. I then cut another panel which I stamped my elephants. I masked them using postit notes and then inked the bg using distress ink and the super cute cloud-background-stencils . I spatterd the bg with white ink before removing the masking and coloring my images. I used copic markers for my coloring.

The LawnFawn blog is such a great place with lots of inspiration for your papercraft projects.

Make sure to also pop over to the Lawn Fawnatics blog for lots of wonderful inspiration from my talented teamies and for all the info you need to play along with our challenge!  By entering a card you have the chance of winning a 50 $ gift card to the Lawn Fawn Store !
