Holiday Card Series 2025 #5 - Fawny Holiday Week

It's Fawny Holiday Week over on the Lawn Fawn blog! All week, the Lawn Fawn and Lawn Fawnatics design teams will be bringing you so much holiday inspiration, and videos too! There will also be daily giveaways, so you're definitely going to want to check back each day.  

For my project, I created a paper mug treat favor -- no dies required! This is a tutorial I first brought you 11 years ago! Back then, it was using 12''x12'' patterned paper, but this time I have modified it for 6''x6''. These are so fun to make, and only require a few simple supplies, and the possibilities of what to fill them with are endless. I used paper from the new All the Sparkles 6x6 pad and decorated it with a Tiny Tag, a cute image from Sweet Christmas Mice, and some Mistletoe Twine.

This is also Day 5 of my 2025 Holiday Card Series, so I hope that you'll check out the video tutorial. You can view it by clicking on the thumbnail below, or find it HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. I hope you enjoy this project and consider making some of your own this holiday season! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Holiday Card Series 2025 #4 - Lawn Fawnatics #208

Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this one is a mashup of Holiday Old + New! Since I love mixing and matching Lawn Fawn sets on a card, this one was right up my alley! I combined images from the new Cozy Cats, Cozy Cats Christmas Add-on, and All the Santa Hats with an older classic, Christmas Dreams. I colored them all with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For my background, I started with some patterned paper from the Falling Leaves 6x6 for the wallpaper and a piece of Light Brown Woodgrain Cardstock for the floor. I trimmed these down with the largest Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackable and glued them to a Chocolate Bar card base. I added a thin strip of white cardstock at the join for the baseboard.

Then I started arranging my images and gluing them down, once I was happy with the placement. I kept everything flat to make it easier for mailing, since this is a holiday card. I especially like the flat cards for sending to friends and family overseas. And I think the arrangement of the images still provides lots of dimension. I added in a sentiment using All the Speech Bubbles and finished it off with some Stardust Stickles.

This card is also Day #4 of my 2025 Holiday Card Series, so if you'd like to see how it came together, just click the video thumbnail below, or you can find it HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. Also, don't forget to stop by the Lawn Fawnatics blog and check out the rest of the design team's Holiday Old + New creations, and link up your own projects to play along. I hope to see yours there! Have an amazing day!

Holiday Card Series 2025 #3

Hey friends, today I'm bringing you Day #3 of my 2025 Holiday Card Series , and this one is a two-fer! I'm creating TWO cards featuring the adorable new Mama Elephant Candy Cane Lane stamp set. This one was just too cute to color just once. I had such a blast bringing these images to life with my Copic markers, then trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For this card I went with a portrait orientation, which gave me a little less room for images, but plenty of space for a nice, big, bold sentiment from Very Merry Sentiments. Sometimes a bold greeting is just the thing to make your card really stand out. I did a simple watercolor wash background with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink and added a bright red Flirty Scallop Frame to set it off.

The second card uses all the same supplies (minus the sentiment set), but this time I flipped it in the landscape orientation so I could really fill it up with as many of these adorable mice as I could fit. I think it turned out equally as cute. To see how they both came together, click the video thumbnail below, or find it HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. Thanks so much for watching!

Build a Scarecrow Card - Lawn Fawnatics Feature

 Hey friends! Today I'm so happy to be featured over on the Lawn Fawnatics blog with another card for our Rainbow challenge! Once again, I used a rainbow color palette to color a scene that depicts all my favorite things about Fall. I combined images from Merry Mice, Happy Harvest, Apple-solutely Awesome, and several more. I'll have all details and supplies included in that post.

Nocturne Rainbow Card - Lawn Fawnatics #207

Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this one is all about Rainbows! I love creating rainbow-colored cards, and who says that rainbows are just for Spring? Fall is full of rainbows, too! That's the direction I decided to go in for this card, pulling together images from so many of my favorite Autumn stamp sets, including the Pick of the Patch Add-on, Spring Basket Add-on: Fall, Halloween Mice, Jump for Joy, Let's Go Nuts, Porcu-pine for You, Happy Harvest, You Autumn Know, and You Are Sublime.

That's right, I used NINE stamp sets on ONE single card! But I love a scene that is chock full of images. It gives you so much to look at! All of these images were stamped in Jet Black Ink, colored with Copic markers, and trimmed out with their matching dies.

For the background, I trimmed down a panel of Bristol with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables and blended on Distress Oxide Inks. I started with Peacock Feathers in the center, then worked out to Chipped Sapphire, and finally Black Soot on the edges. I added some splatter, and once that was dry, arranged my images with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape. And of course, I had to finish it all off with some Stardust Stickles.

Holiday Card Series 2025 #2 - Lawn Fawn Feature

Hey friends, today I'm honored to be on the Lawn Fawn blog and YouTube channel today with a sweet little Christmas card featuring the new Caroling Mice. I had so much fun creating this little city square shopping scene, combining it with a few other stamp sets and dies. I'll have all the supplies linked in the post over there, so be sure to check that out for the details. This is also Day 2 of my 2025 Holiday Card Series on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty, so make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss an installment. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Cozy Kitty Cat Card - Lawn Fawnatics #206

Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this one shares a theme with of my favorite movie of all time: There's No Place Like Home! I decided to create a cozy indoor scene for the new Cozy Cats, combining them with images from Purrfectly Wicked, Meow You Doin'?, Window Scene Winter, and the Porcu-pine for You Add-on. I colored all the images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For the background, I cut down a piece of striped patterned paper from the All the Sparkles 6x6 pad with the largest of the Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables for my wallpaper and added a Light Brown Woodgrain Cardstock floor with a strip of white cardstock for the baseboard. I popped this over another piece of patterned paper from the same pad, which I trimmed down with the largest Large Stitched Rectangle Stackable.

Once the card base was assembled, I adhered my images with liquid glue. I added an Everyday Sentiment Banner stamped in Peachy Keen Ink down at the bottom, and finished up this card with a little Stardust Stickles for a bit of sparkle and shine.
