Fintastic Birthday Card - Lawn Fawnatics #223


Hey friends! Are you ready for a brand-new challenge at Lawn Fawnatics? I know I am! Summer is my favorite season, and I am so ready for Summer cards! For this one I'm diving deep into the ocean to swim amongst blacktip reef sharks -- something I would NEVER be brave enough to do in real life! I used a whole bunch of images on this one, including You Are Sublime, Duh-nuh, Duh-nuh Flip Flop, Mermaid for You, Fintastic Friends, and Party Animal. 


For the background, I blended Distress Oxide Inks onto a panel of Bristol Cardstock. I used Salvaged PatinaMermaid Lagoon, and Uncharted Mariner for the sea. Then I die cut the Desert Canyon Backdrop: Landscape out of more Bristol, and used Hickory Smoke and Black Soot for the reef, and Antique Linen and Gathered Twigs for the sand.


I stamped my sentiment in the top left corner and adhered my images with liquid glue. To cover up my ink-blended edges and tie into the diver's wetsuit, I added a Stitched Rectangle Frame of Blue Jay Cardstock. As always, I finished off the card with a little Stardust Stickles.


If you'd like to see how this card came together, click the video thumbnail below, or you can find it HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty!
