Samantha’s Amazing Monochromatic Happy Harvest Card!

- Nancy Krueger 2 Comments

Join us TODAY at the Lawn Fawn blog for the Big Giveaway and the start of another fun Inspiration Week! We will wrap up the introductions for our Fall & Winter 2022 collection that was released in August with more Design Team inspiration, intro videos and daily giveaways! See you there!

We invite you to share your Monochromatic Challenge projects by linking up your photos HERE! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies, stencils and papers and focus on one color.  This is the last weekend for this challenge which will be open until Sunday, October 16 at 11:59PM ET.

Samantha‘s amazing monochromatic design features Happy Harvest. She also used the Apple-solutely Awesome mouse and ladder and a sentiment from Pick of the Patch. She kept all the colors to shades of brown with both her coloring and the choice of cardstock and patterned paper. I love how she cut the Sunray Backdrop from vellum; it adds interest without bringing in another color.

Thank you so much for this gorgeous inspiration, Samantha!

Christy’s Pumpkin Patch Card

- Nancy Krueger 3 Comments

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.

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Awesome Autumn Challenge! For this one I decided to make a fun pumpkin patch card, complete with black cats, and a full moon. I combined images from Purrfectly Wicked, Simply Celebrate Fall, Happy Harvest, and Jump for Joy. I stamped all the images in Jet Black ink, colored them with Copic markers, and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

Then I created a background by blending Distress Oxide Inks onto Bristol Smooth Surface Cardstock that I’d die cut with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I used Spun Sugar, Saltwater Taffy, and Carved Pumpkin for the sky, and Bundled Sage for the Grass. Then I cut down a second piece with the Full Moon die and blended on Pumice Stone. Then I splattered both with some Liquid Stardust for a bit of shine.

I glued the background to the Fake Tan card base and added the moon with liquid glue, then popped the rest of the images up with foam tape, adding three leaves in the sky to give it some movement. Then I stamped a wind trail from Butterfly Kisses in Narwhal Ink behind the leaves in the sky. I stamped a sentiment from Simply Celebrate Fall in Jet Black Ink and trimmed it out with an Everyday Sentiment Banner. I also stamped on the inside of the card using Simply Fall Sentiments in Pumpkin Spice ink and finished with a bit of Platinum Stickles on the leaves.

If you’d like to watch how this card design comes together, you can check out the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty! Thanks so much for stopping by!
