Fluttering By to Say Card - Lawn Fawnatics #217

Hey friends! It seems that we have finally turned a corner into warmer weather here in PA, and I could not be more thrilled! It's just in time for our Spring Fling Challenge at Lawn Fawnatics! For my card, I was so excited to ink up and play with the new I Like Big Butterflies. They're sweet and stunning at the same time!

I was also super excited to try out the new Big Blossom Backdrop: Portrait. I die cut it out of Bristol Cardstock and colored it by blending on Distress Oxides. I wanted soft, pastel tones, so I used a very soft hand and let the petals fade into white at the tips. The shades I used were too many to list, but I'll have them all linked below the video in the description bar on YouTube.

I also used the Cloudy Stencil to create the sky, and stamped a sentiment from Henry's Build-A-Sentiment: Butterflies directly on that panel. The phrase continues to finish on the inside of the card, which you can also see in the video. Lastly, I used a Stitched Rectangle Frame to die cut the new Mist Cardstock as a border. I love that shade of aqua blue!

Happy Bee-day Honey Card - Lawn Fawnatics #216

Hey friends! It's time for a new Lawn Fawnatics Challenge! The company is turning Sweet 16 this month, so our theme is Happy Birthday, Lawn Fawn! For my card, I was itching to use  Cake It Easy for the very first time. So I paired it with images from Den Sweet Den, You're A Keeper, and Hive Five, and added in grasses from the Yappy Birthday Add-on.

For the background, I cut down some Bristol Cardstock with the Lacy Rectangle Stackables and did a simple watercolor wash with Salvaged Patina and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Ink. At the bottom, I stamped a custom sentiment in black ink.

I popped that up with foam tape over layers of the new Blissful Blossoms 6x6 patterned paper. Then I adhered my images with liquid glue. And of course, I had to finish things off with a little bit of sparkle using Stardust Stickles.

Lucky Pot of Gold Card - Lawn Fawnatics #215

Hey friends! With Spring just around the corner, we are celebrating All Things Rainbow for our newest Lawn Fawnatics Challenge! I went for a pastel color palette on my card, with the sweet moles from A Mole Lot of Love finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow! A huge dream of mine when I was a small child!

I brought in additional images from Purrfectly Wicked and Ahoy, Matey, and did a little switcheroo, taking the gold coins from the treasure chest and putting them into the cauldron. You'll have to watch the video tutorial to see how I did that!

I blended my background using the Cloudy Stencil and Slimline Grassy Stencil. Then I die cut the Stitched Rainbow out of Spiffy Speckles patterned paper. I added two Spring Showers clouds and a custom sentiment using Henry's Build-A-Sentiment: Love and Oliver's Stitched ABCs. I added a bit of Stardust Stickles for some sparkle.

Valentine Card Series 2026 #4 - Lawn Fawnatics #214

Hey friends, it's time for one of our most popular Lawn Fawnatics challenges of the year: Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song! People get so creative with this one! It always blows me away. For my card, I was actually inspired by two picture books in the same series: If You Give a Mouse a Cookie and Happy Valentine's Day Mouse. 

I needed a mouse in overalls, so I pulled in one from Berry Special and added images from Milk and Cookies, along with a trio of hearts from the Scent with Love Add-on. I colored them with Copic markers to match the patterned paper that I wanted to use, and trimmed them out with the matching dies. 

I adore patterned paper, and I wanted to pull in a lot of different prints for this card. I used one from Candy Cane Lane and two from Rainbow Ever After for the cardbase. Then I used a fourth print from Spiffy Speckles, which I trimmed out with the Doily Hearts for my focal panel.

This is also Day 4 of my 2026 Valentine Card Series, so if you'd like to see how it came together, click the video thumbnail below, or you can find it HERE on my YouTube channel.
