Jar of Mints Easel Card & Lip Balm Holder Gift Tag by Grace!

- Nancy Krueger 5 Comments

Our sweet and talented Guest Designer, Grace Camou, joins us again today to share her super adorable easell card and matching gift tag!

When Grace’s beautiful card folds flat for mailing, it’s an adorable How You Bean? jar filled with pretty mint candies from Sweet Christmas and white embossed hearts on vellum…

…but when this clever easel card opens, her mason jar is a see-through shaker design with acetate on both sides! The penguins from Toboggan Together add whimsical fun!

Grace created the sweet lip balm holder using Say What? Gift Tags! She did partial die cutting to extend the length of the tag to fit the lip balm, then she used cellophane gift wrap to hold the tube in place! That is such a great idea!

She created a second tag layer with another Toboggan Together penguin and mint candy to coordinate with the fabulous card! The little tag and banner which she white embossed with the sentiments are found in our Double Slider Surprise die set!

The clever easel design allows the cute shaker jar to take center stage on Grace’s brilliant card!

Thank you so much, Grace, for sharing this brilliant card and gift tag with us today! I’m totally inspired and can’t wait to try your great ideas! We are so happy to have you as our Guest Designer!

Our Shaped Cards challenge will be open until Sunday, December 2nd at 11:59PM ET. We are looking forward to seeing your creative shaped card ideas!

Happy Crafting from your friends at Lawn Fawnatics!

Let’s see how our amazing Design Team was inspired by this challenge theme!

I love how Samantha used the cute little flower girls from Easter Party to send a happy hello!

Kate created a pretty backdrop with repeated Little Flowers! Her card features flowers from Simply Celebrate and a greeting from Simply Sentiments!

Samantha‘s card is so magical! She used flowers from Fairy Friends and paired them with the How You Bean? jar and Scripty Thanks!

Karin‘s card is so charming! She used Bayou Backdrop as the base for her sweet scene with frolicking Rub-A-Dub-Dub ducks and pretty flowers! Scripty Love is the perfect sentiment!

Joyce combined two Spring sets to create this adorable card! She stamped the tiny flowers from Easter Party in a fun pattern then added the bunnies from Some Bunny to complete her sweet card design!

Jessica‘s gorgeous ink blended background sets the stage for our Fairy Friends to have a magical day!

Franci made a beautiful card with a clean and simple style! The fresh ink colors are perfect for the Fab Flowers! I love that her Happy Happy Happy sentiment is embossed with silver embossing powder, it’s so lovely!

Christy‘s adorable card features Gleeful Gardens! She created her happy scene on a Stitched Journaling Card with Grassy Borders and a cute sentiment from Critters on the Savanna!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next two weeks and of course our Featured Fawnatics and Random Winner for Challenge 30 tomorrow!
