Rainy Day Hugs Card


Hey friends, today I'm happy to bring you a sweet Springtime card using the Sweet November Rainy Day Fairwees along with some floral images from Horizon Lines - Wildflower Meadow to help set the scene. I colored the whole thing in with Copic markers, starting with the background and then moving forward to the images.


I trimmed down that panel and added a frame using the second largest Lawn Fawn Lacy Rectangle Stackables which I trimmed out of some patterned paper from the Carta Bella Secret Garden 6x6. I also chose three more prints to layer on my card base, and popped up the framed focal panel over top.


If you'd like to see how this card came together, including the entire coloring process, click the video thumbnail below. You can also find the tutorial HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. I really hope you enjoy this one! I'm so ready for April showers and May flowers, aren't you?

Lost without You Card - Lawn Fawnatics #193


Hey friends, it's time for a new Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this one is Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song. I'm not going to lie, I absolutely wanted to use the new It's a Bird! stamp set from Lawn Fawn, so I started brainstorming ideas about what those cute little mice could be searching for. A nursery song from preschool came to mind, "Going on a Bear Hunt." I used to love to do all the motions! So I pulled together additional images from Heart Tree and Snow Much Fun to bring the scene to life.


I colored all of the images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies. Then, I created a background by blending Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink over the Cloudy Stencil onto a panel of Bristol that I cut down with the Small Stitched Rounded Rectangle Stackables. I also trimmed down an extra panel with the grassy hill of the  Mushroom Border and blended on Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink.


For my sentiments, I stamped one from Car Critters down at the bottom of the grass panel and adhered that to the sky background. I also used All the Speech Bubbles along with the Simply Celebrate Critters Add-on to add some additional phrases. I glued the background to a Chocolate Bar card base and added my images with a mix of foam tape and liquid glue.


I really hope you like this one! If you'd like to see how it came together, click the video thumbnail below, or you can find the tutorial HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. Don't forget to also stop by the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog to see the rest of the design team's Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song projects and to link up your own and play along! Have a great day!

Happy Barkday Card - Lawn Fawnatics #192


Hey friends, it's time for one of my favorite Lawn Fawnatics Challenges of the whole year! It's All Things Birthday! I love making birthday cards so this one is right up my alley. Since this week contains both my youngest son's birthday and my dog's birthday, I had to go with a dog themed card. I pulled out Yappy Birthday and the Yappy Birthday Add-on, colored the images with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.


I decided to lean into the patterned paper for this one, because it always reminds me of wrapping paper on gifts! I pulled out two patterns from the Pint-sized Patterns Summertime 6x6. I trimmed the blue design down with the largest Small Stitched Rounded Rectangle Stackables and the rainbow stripe with my paper trimmer to fit my Cilantro card base.


I stamped my sentiment directly on the focal panel and popped it up with foam tape over the striped print. Then I adhered my images with liquid glue, added the confetti bits to fill in all the empty spaces, and finished with a bit of Stardust Stickles.


If you'd like to see how this card came together, click the video thumbnail below, or you can find it HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. I really hope you enjoy it! Don't forgot to visit the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog to see what the rest of the design team created to inspire you, and to link up your own birthday-themed projects to play along. We can't wait to see what you create!
