Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #41 - "Shaped Cards" - Blue Winter - Box Card

Hey there,

It's been a little while since my last Lawn Fawnatics Challenge project as I was busy mass-producing holiday cards ^^ But when I saw the theme of this new challenge, I grabbed my box card die set and started creating.

I first started by stamping a bunch of images on Neenah solar white cardstock using Memento tuxedo black ink.

Colored everything using my Spectrum Noir markers and cut them using the coordinating dies.

Next I cut all the elements to build my box card: the base, two squares and one rectangle, insert pieces, and one mountain border from dark blue cardstock + cloud borders and mountain tops from white glitter cardstock + banner things from both cardstocks.

I assembled everything using double sided tape, and attached all the images using glue dots.

I added glitter to the lights to finish the card.

Le Petite Market - Space Bookmarks

Hey there,

Today I'm sharing with you some bookmarks I made using adorable digital stamps by Le Petite Market. Their images are very unique and just so cute! Hope you'll like them as much as I do!

I first started by printing the images on Neenah solar white cardstock. My printer is an Epson xp-225 and the ink never smears even if I use alcohol markers.

Colored everything using my Spectrum Noir markers, and trying to keep the same color combo for every critter. Next I fussy cut them.

For the galaxy backgrounds, I simply applied several distress inks on a large piece of bristol smooth cardstock, splattered water and silver paint on it, and then die cut tags from it.

I also die cut dark blue glitter tags using the same that I attached at the back of each galaxy panel.

I white heat embossed a sentiment and glued a critter on each tag.

I laminated all the tags, pierced the hole on each one using my fuse tool, and added khaki ribbons to finish the bookmarks.

Holiday Card Series 2018 - Christmas Under the Sea - One Layer Card

Hello there,

Back with a card that combines my two favorite themes: under the sea + christmas. It's a one layer card with a lot of masking, so the process was kind of long but so fun. I even customized the submarine so we can see the see horse elf driving it ^^

I first started by stamping all the images on Neenah solar white cardstock using Memento back ink. 

Next I cut large pieces of masking paper, attached them one at a time on my panel to create hills in my scene, and applied distress inks.

Then I finally removed all the masking elements, splattered water on my panel to create water bubbles, and colored the images using alcohol markers.

Next I white heat embossed my sentiment, stamped more bubbles that I covered with clear Nuvo drops, added white highlights on some images and finally attached the panel on a white card base.

Holiday Card Series 2018 - Bright Snowflakes

Hello there,

Today I'm sharing with you four bright, colorful and simple holiday cards. I used several brands to create them: Hero Arts for the snowflake background, Simon Says Stamp for the big snowflake die, Tim Holt's distress inks, and 4enscrap for my French sentiment.

Also, they were inspired by a project Laura Bassen shared recently (her video)

So like I said, these cards were pretty simple to make, here's the process:

I first started by stamping the snowflake background on four Strathmore bristol smooth panels using versamark ink and my misti tool. Next I white heat embossed the snowflakes using my heat tool.

Then I picked several colors of distress inks I thought would go well together, I temporarily taped the embossed bristol panel on thick cardboard, applied a lot of clear water on the paper and then started painted using my distress inks mixed with water. I used my heat tool to dry the ink faster and repeated the painting process one or two times to get brighter colors.

Once my panels were dry, I splattered white distress ink on top of them to add more texture.

I white heat embossed my sentiment four times, trimmed each piece to get small banners and inked them using distress inks that would coordinate with my snowflake backgrounds.

I die cut four large snowflakes from white glitter cardstock and glued them in the top middle part of my panels. Next I attached my sentiments right in the middle of these big snowflakes using foam adhesive squares.

I attached each panel on a white card base, and added a bunch of clear drops on each one to finish the projects.

Lawn Fawn - Funfair - Pop-Up Box Card

Hello there,

A few weeks ago, I colored a bunch of cuties from the Coaster Critters stamp set and some other sets. I didn't really know what to make with them, until a friend of mine talked about carnivals in my insta stories. I immediately pictured this box card in my head and decided to make it ^^

I first started by building the box by cutting and assembling all the elements using double sided tape.

Next I stamped all my images on Neenah solar white cardstock, colored them using my spectrum noir markers and cut them using the coordinating dies.

I also die cut a mountain border, several grass and hill borders and some small clouds. I attached the mountain border and the clouds on the background of the box card, and two grass borders on the last insert pieces.

Then I attached all the other elements using glue dots and/or liquid glue. I assembled the flag banner and attached it on the foreground.

And to finish the project, I added a balloon using a thin strip of acetate to give the illusion that it was floating in the air.

Holiday Card Series 2018 || Festive Wreaths

Hello there,

I'm back with three new festive wreaths I made using several stamp sets and my homemade wreath builder. Very easy and fast to make!

I first started by stamping all the wreaths on Neenah solar white cardstock using alcohol marker friendly black ink and my wreath stencil. Next I colored everything using the same colors for each panel.

I gold heat embossed the sentiment and cut them using the coordinating dies. I also stamped "merry christmas" three times and cut them. 

Frames each panel using a circle die and a square die, attached the sentiment elements in the middle of each panel using foam adhesive squares, and glued each panel on a white card base.

Jennifer Nilsson Art - Contrasting Colors for an Encouragement Card

Hey there,

I'm back with a new one layer card entirely no-line colored using alcohol markers. I really like that new challenge I threw myself into, and Jennifer Nilsson's designs are just perfect for that.

So, I first started by printing the image on Neenah solar white cardstock. Next, I picked several bright colors of markers to color the girl because I knew my background would be in grey tons and I wanted the image to stand out.

Like as said, the background was colored different shades of grey markers. I kept the dark greys on the left, kind of behind the girl, and the light greys towards her to give the illusion of brightened sky.

I stamped my sentiment using an alphabet stamp set from my stash, added details and shadows on the girl using colored pencils, and drew some raindrops using a white gel pen. And then I simply attached my panel to a white card base to finish the project.
