Thanks Berry Much Card - Lawn Fawn Feature

Hello my friends, today I'm here with a bonus video. This one is featured on the Lawn Fawn Blog and YouTube Channel as well as my own. For this card I combined images from Berry Special, Fairy Friends, and Let's Go Nuts and colored them with my Copic markers. I'll have all other details posted over there, and of course in the video, so be sure to check it out. Thanks so much for watching!

Teddy Bear Picnic Card

Hello friends, today I'm back with an extra sweet teddy bear picnic scene, combining several sets from Hello Bluebird, including Bloom and Grow, Strawberry Jam, Pig Out, and Word Buddies Woodland. I stamped the images on Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

Then I watercolored a background panel on Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock using Stormy Sky and Bundled Sage Distress Oxide Ink. I die cut Simple Stories Boho Baby patterned paper with the Hello Bluebird Gallery Frame #2 and popped it up with foam tape. For the sentiment, I die cut the word "thanks" from the Gallery Frame #2 out of Moonstone cardstock and colored it with Copics in an ombre effect. Then I added an additional phrase from Hello Bluebird Typed Everyday and finished off with some Clear Glaze Pen and Stardust Stickles.

Strawberry Picnic Card

Hey friends, happy Monday! Today I'm excited to bring you a sweet Spring picnic scene combining Hello Bluebird Meadow Bunnies, Strawberry Jam, and Pig Out stamp sets. I stamped all the images with Lawn Fawn Jet Black Ink on Spectrum Noir Ultra Smooth Premium White Cardstock, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For the background I created a scene on a piece of Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock by using the Lawn Fawn Cloudy Stencil and some Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink for the sky, and the MFT Drifts & Hills Stencil with Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn for the ground. Then I cut a piece of MFT Pretty in Plaid paper with the Hello Bluebird Gallery Frame #6 and popped that up before adding my images. I finished off with a bit of Clear Glaze Pen and some  Stardust Stickles.

You may notice in the photos that there has been an addition to this card since the video was filmed. Can you spot the difference? Check out the tutorial below or watch it on YouTube, and don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe! I appreciate it so much!

Christy Gets Crafty with My Favorite Things - April

Hey friends, welcome to the April edition of Christy Gets Crafty with My Favorite Things! This month I absolutely fell in love with the new Shout it from the Rooftops stamp set. What a fun and unique perspective! I colored the images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For the background, I took the Rolling Clouds Stencil to create a sunrise using Spun Sugar and Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Inks. I trimmed down the panel with an A2 Stitched Rectangle STAX Set 2, then I stamped a sentiment from Top of the World. I added my images with foam tape and finished with a little clear glaze pen over the windows and barrette.

Sending Sunshine - Lawn Fawnatics #123

Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge, and this time we're asking you to Create a Scene! Scene cards are some of my most favorite to make, so this one is right up my alley. I couldn't resist squeaking in one more Easter card, so I used the bunny from Scootin' By to be my Easter bunny, tiptoeing around as he hides his Easter eggs. I combined him with the Window Scene: Spring and an extra egg from Holiday Party Animal. I colored everything with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies, using the Window Scene: Winter dies for the focal panel and scalloped border.

Then I took a bunch of colorful pastel floral prints from the Flower Market 6x6 and cut them into strops. I layered those onto a Speckled Eggshell card base in a diagonal pattern. I popped the focal panel up with foam tape and added my images and an Everyday Sentiment Banner. I finished the card with a bit of Clear Glaze Pen and some Stardust Stickles.

Art Journal with Me #4 - Live Gently Upon this Earth

Hello friends! Today I'm bringing you my April Art Journal spread. This month I tried something new, using a paper napkin as my focal point, adhering it to the page with clear gesso, I then added layers of patterned papers from the Stamperia Hortensia 8x8 pad, scripty washi tape, tickets and ephemera, then pulled it all together with white gesso.

To pull focus to the center, I added some Iridescent Gelatos around the edges to create a bit of a frame and pull in the colors from the florals. I finished with some Tim Holtz Small Talk Stickers for my title, some gel pen details, and a retro date stamp in Ranger Archival Ink.

To see how this spread came together, you can click below or watch on YouTube. If you enjoy it, be sure to like the video and subscribe to my channel! I can't wait to get started on my art journaling spread for May!
