HAPPY NEW YEAR!
And welcome one and all to
It's Lawnscaping's Birthday!
I remember so clearly how nervous I was
last year on this day when my first ever post as
a Design Team member of Lawnscaping went up.
I so wanted to do a good job and inspire people
with my little creations.
I hope I've done that for you guys!
Anyway, we're here today to celebrate,
and helping us do that is the wondeful...
who has generously offered up this prize
to the winner of our birthday challenge:
And not only that, but we've got a very
special gift for every single one of our followers
at the Lawnscaping Challenge blog
so definitely be sure to stop over there when you're through.
On to my card:
I made this little cutie using Lawn Fawn's
stamp sets, along with My Mind's Eye
Lime Twist patterned paper.
I also added in some May Arts ribbon and a
button from Papertrey Ink.
The balloons were colored with Copics.
I'm really happy with how the shading turned out.
Now, please hop on over to see what the rest
of the design team has come up with for their
birthday celebration projects!
Christiana Reuling (me!)
and our guest designer,
the very lovely Ruby McGuire!
And don't forget to stop back at the
for all the details on how to enter
and to pick up our gift to you --
our thanks for being such wonderful supporters
through this past year.
We love you guys and we couldn't
do it without you!
Wishing you all a happy, crafty 2012!
