Fairy Magical Day - Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #9



Hey friends! It's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this time we've got some beautiful color inspiration for you! I thought these shades would be beautiful in a garden scene, so I pulled out one of my most favorite sets, Fairy Friends.

I colored my images with Copic markers using the inspiration photo as my guide, then paired it with some Echo Park papers and as a last minute addition, threw in a few butterflies from Wild for You. I think they really finished off the scene nicely.


The outside sentiment was stamped in JalapeƱo ink and then I just had to add a bit of Crystal Stickles because all fairies need glitter!


I finished off the inside by stamping a sentiment from Tiny Tags Sayings: Birthday and another fairy in Merman ink but I'll save that for the video. :)

Click the YouTube icon at the bottom right corner to watch it there in HD and please subscribe! It means a lot.



Please hop over to the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge Blog and check out the other amazing design team samples and don't forget to link up your color inspiration projects to play along.

Have a great day!

Pretty Pink Posh July Release Blog Hop


Hey friends! Welcome to Day 2 of the Pretty Pink Posh Blog Hop for the July 2017 release! I'm super excited to be joining so many talented ladies to bring you inspiration for these fantastic stamps and dies. You should have arrived from Eloise's blog, but if you get lost anywhere along the way, just pop back over to the beginning at Pretty Pink Posh.


For my card, I wanted to use the Sea Friends to create a little underwater cove. So I colored my images with Copic markers and die cut them with the matching dies. I used the largest die from Stitched Duo 3 to create my peekaboo window, and drew cracks and crevices all over to make it look aged.


The background was made with Distress Inks and a few spritzes of water. Then I added my images inside and outside my peekaboo cove to create a layered effect.

I scored the top of my Distress Inked panel and attached it to the inside of the card with a thin strip of scor-tape, so that it can be lifted to reveal a place to write a message to the recipient. And I couldn't resist adding another cutie pie from Sea Friends there as well. Both of my sentiments were pulled from Bear Hugs.


If you're interested in seeing how this card came together, I have a video tutorial for you. Click on the YouTube icon to watch it there in HD.


Did I mention that there will be prizes? Be sure to leave a comment at each spot along the hop! Paulina is giving away four $25 gift certificates to four random commenters (2 winners each day) left before July 18th, 2017 at 11:59 PM PST. For the complete list of participants, please see the links below. 

But now you're on to Lisa's blog. Happy hopping!

Ahoy Matey - Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #8


Ahoy there, me hardies! It's time for our next Lawn Fawnatics Challenge: Summertime Fun! I recently saw the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie, so I was feeling extra inspired to pull out my Ahoy Matey stamp set and create a fun scene. I used Distress inks to create my background with the Simple Stitched Hillside Borders and the Ocean Hillside Pop Up Add Ons. Then I colored my images with Copic markers and stamped my sentiment in Walnut Ink.


All supplies used will be listed and linked below the video on YouTube. I hope you enjoy it! Click on the YouTube icon at the bottom right to watch it there in HD and please don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe!



Now please head on over to the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge Blog to check out the other amazing design team samples and to link up your Summertime Fun projects to enter! I can't wait to see what you create!
