Twinkle Little Star Card
Hey friends, today I'm back with a card for a super exciting occasion! I just became an auntie again! I have a brand-new baby niece who is just as sweet as can be, and deserved the sweetest card to welcome her into our family. I pulled together images from Hello Bluebird's Little Star and Sweet Dreams, with accents from Word Buddies Jungle and Balloon Buddies. I colored them with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies.
For the background, I cut down some Bristol Cardstock with the Nesting Deckle Mini Slimline dies and blended on Distress Oxide Inks in Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, and Saltwater Taffy. I splattered on some water, ink, and Gansai Tambi Starry Colors. Then I heat embossed my sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black Ink and Clear Embossing Powder. I added my images with a mix of foam tape and liquid glue and finished with a bit of Stardust Stickles.
I really hope you guys enjoy this one, and that my brother and sister-in-law will too! If you want to see how it came together, click below or watch HERE on YouTube. Thanks so much for watching! Have a great day!

Little Golden Birthday Card - Lawn Fawnatics #169
Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge, and this time it's our popular Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song! The books that first inspired my great love of reading were the Little Golden Books. There were so many clever stories and delightful illustrations. So my card is inspired by the back cover of all the Little Golden Books with the animals clustered around the edges framing up the message in the middle.
I wanted to have a good mix of characters, but since the possibilities of which ones to use was endless, I narrowed them down to a woodland critter theme. I pulled together images from so many sets, including Porcupine for You, Wood You Be Mine, Scent with Love, Hive Five, A Bug Deal, Let's Go Nuts, Critters in the Arctic, Happy Harvest, Party Animal, and Magic Messages. I stamped all the images in Jet Black Ink and trimmed them out with the matching dies.
Then I trimmed down some Spiffier Speckles 6x6 patterned paper with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables and glued that to a Sage Leaf card base. I stamped a sentiment from Magic Messages on more patterned paper with Noble Fir Ink, trimmed it out with the matching die, and popped it up with foam tape in the center of the card. Then I arranged all the images around it, filling it with as many little details I could squeeze in.

Tea Party Birthday Card - Lawn Fawnatics #168
Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this time the theme is one of my absolute favorites: Birthday! I love to make birthday cards. There's just something so joyful about them. For this one, I wanted to make a really detailed woodland scene using a whole bunch of images, so I combined Porcu-pine for You, Tea-rriffic Day, the Tea-rriffic Day Add-on, Toucan Do It, Butterfly Kisses, Our Friendship Grows, and You Are Sublime. I colored the images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with their matching dies.
For the background, I started with a piece of Bristol and blended on Distress Oxide Inks. For the sky, I used Salvaged Patina along with the Cloudy Stencil. For the ground, I used Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn applied with the Slimline Grassy Stencil. Then I cut the largest Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame out of Dark Brown Woodgrain Cardstock and popped that up over top with foam tape.
I stamped a sentiment from Party Animal at the bottom of the focal panel and adhered that to a Barn Red card base. Then I adhered my images using a mixture of foam tape and liquid glue to create some depth and dimension. To finish off the card, I added a few touches of my favorite embellishment, Stardust Stickles.
If you'd like to see the entire card making process, you can check out the video tutorial by clicking below, or find it HERE on my YouTube channel. I really hope you enjoy it! Be sure to stop by the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog to see what the rest of the design team came up with to inspire you, and to link up your own birthday projects to play along!
