Mimi combined Let’s Play and Garden Before ‘n Afters to set the scene for this adorable card! She included the trees, pink flowers and sunflowers from the inspiration photo. Then she added the fun with Just Plane Awesome. She also made this card interactive using Swish ‘n Pop Pull Tab!


Here, Mimi gives a little behind the scenes peek at the Swish ‘n Pop Pull Tab mechanism. She set it so the paper airplane appears to be flying through the trees. So clever!

Thank you so much for sharing this clever inspiration with us, Mimi!

Mimi doubled the fun for her great amusement park scene! She added both the Reveal Wheel and Let’s Toast Pull Tab Add-On interactive element!


Mimi used Coaster Critters for the roller coaster, Ahoy Matey for the palm trees and snow from Winter in the Park as bushes in creating this wonderful scene.


She added characters from Tiny Friends and Tiny Sports Friends! I love how she turned one of them into a balloon-selling clown. To create the swing in the foreground Mimi combined the ship from Ahoy Matey with a piece from the swing set in Let’s Play. That’s what I call getting the most from your stamp sets!


The Reveal Wheel makes the tiny coaster cars loop the loop! Mimi used the hamster wheel from Wheelie Like You to add the loop on the roller coaster!


The Let’s Toast Pull Tab Add-On makes the large coaster cars emerge from the tunnel at the end of the ride! And you’ll never guess what Mimi used for the “tunnel”. Check out Let’s Roll! She turned the sushi roll on its side, so clever!

Thanks so much for sharing this clever and creative inspiration, Mimi!

Samantha’s Let’s Go Nuts Card with Rosy Fall Colors

We invite you to share your Awesome Autumn projects by linking up your photos HERE! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies, stencils and papers and show us what you love about Autumn.  This challenge will be open until Sunday, October 2 at 11:59PM ET.

Samantha‘s cheery Awesome Autumn inspiration features the cute Let’s Go Nuts squirrels!

She stamped and colored all the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers before cutting them out with the coordinating dies. Then she used Distress ink in Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves and Dried Marigold to splatter more color and texture on the treetops.

She arranged the trees from Critters in the Burbs and Let’s Play on a panel of white Woodgrain cardstock, then she placed the cute squirrels and acorns! To finish the card, she white embossed the sentiment on black cardstock and trimmed it into strips to pop up on the card!

This card is so adorable, Samantha! Thanks for sharing with us today!
