Lawn Fawn Big Thanks for Hero Arts Birthday Box Pop Up Card

I’m finally getting back into the swing of card making again after my first trimester hiatus and I have an overwhelming number of things on my desk that I need to use due to Black Friday, Christmas, and Boxing Day sales. A great motivation for me to really get back into card making is the Daily Marker 30 Day Colouring Challenge. Realistically, you just have to spend a few minutes a day colouring but I’d rather just share my finished card!

If you want to join in on the fun, you can check out the details
here.

Also, I’m making this card for the current Lawnfawnatics Challenge. Lawn Fawn is celebrating its 10th birthday so this weeks challenge theme is birthdays!

Hero Arts had their 45th Year Anniversary September of last year and released a an adorable rhino collaborative stamp set with Lawn Fawn. This is what I came up with:

I started out this card by stamping some of the images from the Big Thanks stamp set, as well as the tree from Critters On The Savanna stamp set, and the large rock from Mermaid For You.

I used the following Copic Markers:
Rhino: C5, C3, C1, W0, R22, R20, 0
Clouds: B00, 0
Rocks: W5, W3
Tree: E37, E33, YG17, YG13
Grass: G99, G94, G24, G21
Birds: B02, B00, Y06

This card has 3 slats. The green panels were stamped with MFT’s Cactus Dye Ink using MFT’s Etched Tribal Background Stamp. The yellow panels were ink blended with Distress Oxide Inks Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold, and Mustard Seed. Then I used MFT’s Radiating Rays Stencil and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink to create the sun rays.

I assembled the interior of my card by gluing the pieces directly to the slats or adhering them onto card stock or acetate tabs and gluing them to the slats.

For my sentiment, I used, “Have A Wild Birthday”, from the Lawn Fawn Wild For You Stamp set. It was stamped with Versafine Ink and heat embossed with WOW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder.

I finished up the card by adding a bird, rock, and grass to the writing space on the back.

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #72: Lawn Fawn Fairy Friends Birthday Box Pop Up Card

I’ve had Lawn Fawn’s Fairy Friends Stamp set for like EVER!! It’s finally time to use it. It’s also been a while since I did a card for a Lawn Fawntatics Challenge. The current challenge is to design a card inspired by a book, movie, or song.

I took inspiration from Tinkerbell. This is what I came up with:

I stamped images from the Fairy Friends Stamp set with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink and coloured them with Copic Markers. I used the following markers: YG13, YG17, C1, 0, E95, YR00, Y28, Y21, BG45, BG49, Y06, Y11, R22, R20, E33, E31, V06, V04, G05, G02, YG06, YG11, RV23, RV21, YR07, YR04, Y38, and Y35.

I also stamped the long grasses using the Lawn Fawn inks Celery Stick, Freshly Cut Grass, Jalapeno, and Noble Fir.

I LOVE Lawn Fawn Prisma Glitter so I applied it to the fairy wings. I also used a Lawn Fawn Glitter Pen and applied it to the fairy dresses and all the flowers. This Lawn Fawn Glitter Pen is really growing on me and I find myself reaching for it more! It’s a felt tip glitter pen and yields a fine white shimmer, similar to the Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Brush Pen. What I LOVE about it though, is that when it’s dry, the glitter does not rub off unlike the Spectrum Noir Pen or the Clear Wink of Stella.

I die cut mountains using Lawn Fawn’s Stitched Mountain Border and grassy hills using Lawn Fawn’s Grassy Hillside Borders and Meadow Borders. I created more depth by ink blending the top of each piece. For the mountains I used Distress Oxide Iced Spruce, and for the grass I used Distress Oxide Pine Needles, Mowed Lawn, and Cracked Pistachio.

This card has 4 slats and the decorative paper for the panels was actually origami paper that I bought at Daiso.

I assembled the interior of my card by gluing the pieces directly to the slats or adhering them onto card stock or acetate tabs and gluing them to the slats.

I stamped out, “have a magical day”, with Versafine Onyx Black Ink and heat embossed it with WOW Clear Sparkle Embossing Powder. I fussy cut the sentiment with my Cutterbee scissors and adhered it to the front panel.

I finished up the card by adhering another flower to the back writing space.

That finishes up my card. Unfortunately, the photos don’t show how sparkly this card actually is. You can check it out in action here:

Mama Elephant Little Train Agenda Birthday Shaker Card

Hey Everybody!!!

This is a custom card request from my Etsy shop. My client wanted a train shaker card for her son and I was happy to oblige!

Surprise, surprise, I had Mama Elephant’s Little Train Agenda Stamp and Die sets sitting in my to-use pile so I finally get to use them!!! What’s nice about the coordinating dies is that they cut out the window for the engine of the train.

Anyways, so I stamped the images using Hero Arts Intense Black Ink and die cut the images with the coordinating dies. I coloured the images with the following Copic Markers: E95, YR00, YG09, YG06, YG03, YG11, E33, E31, E53, E42, B97, B95, B02, B00, V04, V01, C1, 0, C3, C5, T7, T5, T3, Y08, Y06, Y11, YR16, YR02, R20, R29, R27, and R35.

I die cut pieces for my background using Lawn Fawn’s Stitched Hillside Backdrop: Landscape and Mama Elephant’s Cityscape Die. I used Lawn Fawn’s Happy Birthday Border which is a scripty die cut that says, “Happy birthday to you” and die cut it once in Recollections Gold Glitter cardstock and 110lb white card stock and glued them together to create a bit of dimension.

I created an inkblended background using Distress Oxide Inks Salty Ocean and Faded Jeans and sprayed water to create a splattered effect.

I used 3M foam tape and a piece of acetate to create my shaker component and filled the shaker with an assortment of sequins and confetti.

I adhered all my elements onto my card front and glued the card front to a dark blue card base with my ATG adhesive. I finished the front of the card by applying Clear Wink Of Stella to the star on the train, the balloons, the sun, the ice cream cone, and the presents. For the inside of the card, I die cut a the stitched rectangle from Mama Elephant’s Basic Set and cut a light grey piece of card stock to use as a matte for the stitched rectangle.

That finishes up my card. The 30 Day Coloring Challenge is going on right now so this card was entered in that. You can check out the details
