Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 49 – CASE Yourself

- Nancy Krueger 16 Comments

Wow! How do we follow up after our last challenge got so much buzz? For this new challenge we want you to be inspired by…YOU! For those who may be wondering what CASE means, it stands for “copy and selectively edit”.  So to CASE yourself, choose a favorite project and remake it in a new way; or let a design that you want to improve upon inspire you! However you choose just let us see the original project along with the remake! Your projects should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers. This challenge will be open until Sunday, March 31 at 11:59PM ET.

For each challenge, we will randomly select a winner to receive a $25.00 gift certificate to the Lawn Fawn shop! We will also be highlighting a few of your fabulous projects at the close of each challenge! By linking your projects to our challenges you will give permission for us to post your work to this blog and our social media sites. Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

Now let’s see how our amazing Design Team was inspired to CASE themselves!

Franci made a card that features Hay There in an Outside In Stitched Heart based on her Winter Otter card design!

Karin recreated her cute penguin and Tiny Tag birthday card using Wild for You and a different shape of Tiny Tag!

Samantha C kept her magic in a jar theme with How You Bean? by switching out the Fairy Friends for our new Oh Gnome! set and a our older Gnome Sweet Gnome!

For her Chirpy Chirp Chirp remake, Joyce substituted bright, bold colors for the original soft pastel color palette!

Grace altered her colorful original Let’s Toast design by adding some white embossing on acetate and featuring Oh Gnome! with Scripty Thanks!

Christy brought her mini scene out of the ocean and into the meadow with Butterfly Kisses and swapped the patterned papers for Spring Fling!

Samantha M recreated her card set from April 2018 by swapping out the Gleeful Gardens hummingbird for a sweet Fairy Friend!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and of course we’ll share our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 48 tomorrow!


Jessica’s Edward Scissorhands Scalloped Box Card!

- Nancy Krueger 12 Comments

Good morning! Jess here with a card for our current Inspired by a Book, Movie, or Song challenge! It’s been so fun figuring out how I can adapt Lawn Fawn sets to fit some of my favorite movies! Today I’ve created a box card pop-up featuring one of my all-time favorites: Edward Scissorhands!!

To start I stamped the mermaid and merman from Mermaid For You, the houses from Happy Village, and lots of scissors from Holiday Helpers with Versafine and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. I colored them with Copic markers, added a few Edward Scissorhands accents to the merman, and die-cut them with the coordinating dies.

Next I stamped the giraffe from Critters on the Savanna, the dino from Critters from the Past, the seal from Sealed With a Kiss, and Nessie from Lovable Legends with Celery Stick ink and colored them with Copic markers to recreate the topiaries that Edward creates in the movie. Once I was done I die-cut them with the coordinating dies and added a little YG11 Copic to the edges of the dies to keep them from being too clean cut.

Next I die-cut the Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up with the Spring Fling paper pack and the inner mats of the box card with the Spiffy Speckles paper pack in green and blue. I also used the Simple Stitched Hillside dies to create grassy hills for each layer. I stamped the sentiment from Coaster Critters onto one of the mats with Versafine and heat-embossed it
with clear embossing powder. Then I adhered the box together. I added some of the topiaries to the side panels and tucked the rest around my houses. Finally I added Edward and Kim to complete the scene!

And that’s my card! You have until Sunday, March 17th at 11:59PM ET to get crafty with your Inspired by a Book, Movie, and Song creations and I can’t wait to see what you create! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend!
