LAWN FAWNATICS CHALLENGE 141 – LOTS OF HEART


For this challenge I had to go deep into my craft room to find some Lawn Fawn product! I used Stitched Party Banners and the Color My World stamp set, both are pretty old but I'm using what I have. I also found some Lawn Fawn bakers twine that I think was tied around the product in my order.


I cut the smaller of the two banners in that set out of some Papertrey Ink white card stock. Using the crayon image I created a colorful background using a variety of Clearly Kelly by Hero Arts inks. For the sentiment, I die cut the circle from the banner set and stamped 'You color my world' using VersaFine Onyx Black ink. To make it stand out from the background a little more, I cut a pinked edge circle from some Stampin'Up Tempting Turquoise card stock using Papertrey Ink's Limitless Layers 2 1/2" Circle Die set. Adding the bakers twine to the holes at the top of the banner layer finishes off the card. I popped it up on foam tape on a standard A2 (4 1/4" X 5 1/2") card base.

Thanks for checking out my card today :o)

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge

 

I decided to participate in the new Monday challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. The theme is Food and/or Drink. I chose to use a new Tim Holtz Thinlits Colorize die from Sizzix, CELEBRATE. I used the birthday cake image. I cut it from some pink and cream Sizzix Brite-ons shimmery paper and from some gold metallic card stock from Hobby Lobby. I used that same gold card stock to die cut a Spellbinders Happy Birthday sentiment. I embossed a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of white Papertrey Ink card stock using a Darice embossing folder called Half Circle Pattern. I then layered that over a 4 1/8" X 5 3/8" piece of the same pink shimmery Sizzix paper I used to die cut some of the cake elements from and lastly, I layered the whole thing onto a standard A2 (4 1/4" X 5 1/2") white card base.


Hoping to participate in more challenges and posting them here. Thanks for stopping by!
