Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 41 – Shaped Cards

Hello Fawnatics Friends! It’s time to start a new challenge! This time we are looking cards that have a fun shape! A box, a Christmas tree or a pumpkin! A star, a heart or a circle! Have fun with this theme and let your creativity soar! This new challenge will be open until Sunday, December 2nd at 11:59PM ET. Your card should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers.

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!

We are so excited to welcome Grace Camou as our Guest Designer for this challenge! She is a very talented cardmaker and has been wowing us with her amazing creativity! You can find her on Instagram as @allbygrace! Be sure to check out her Instagram, you will be so inspired! Now let’s share her amazing card for this challenge!

What looks like just a regular card is actually a Storybook Shadow Box card to which Grace added a decorated cover flap! How cute is that gingerbread and candy vignette?!

Grace used the banner die that comes in the Double Slider Surprise die set to add the sweet sentiment to the “book cover” flap on the front of the box! This design is just so fun and unique!

When the card folds flat for mailing, the Sweet Christmas sentiment on the side of the box will be visible as the card is removed from the envelope! Too clever!

Grace used our Sweet Christmas stamp set to build an adorable layered scene on the inside! She created a lovely pink and teal color palette using papers from a few different collections! She also added the Sweetest Flavor ice cream cone to the inside panels in pretty pastel shades!

Now let’s see what our awesome Design Team created to inspire your creativity!

Samantha‘s fabulous Christmas scene was created on an Outside In Stitched Cloud shape! She used Winter Village and Winter Skies for the scene!

Jessica used a Stitched Circle for her adorable shaped card! She combined the mug and fun sentiment from Thanks a Latte with glittery snowflakes!

Franci created a sweet snowscape inside a Shadow Box Card using the cute penguins from Snow Cool! The pretty pastel colors are perfect in this frosty scene!

Karin‘s beautiful little Winter Skies scene looks so adorable in the heart-shaped card! She used an Outside In Stitched Heart with a Lacy Heart to create the card base.

Samantha C got really creative and made her card base using the Candy Box die! She used Holiday Sparkle cardstock to add the glittery silver to the sides and the sweet Holiday Helpers fit perfectly on this unique card design!

Joyce used our new Outside In Stitched Christmas Tree for her festive and fun shaped card! She added a Bannertastic banner with a greeting from Thanks a Latte! The fun accessories under the tree are from the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On set!

Christy used the Shadow Box Card dies to make the box base and add the snowy trees! The Shadow Box Ocean Add-On was used to create the sweet scalloped window! She filled the scene with critters from Joy to the Woods and finished with a sentiment from Ready Set Snow for her fantastic holiday card!

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 40 tomorrow!


Franci’s Festive Rainbow Card

Hi there and happy Wednesday! Franci here with you today with a Really Rainbow Christmas festive card for our Color Inspiration Challenge!

To create my card I die cut some Stitched Snowflakes out of the new Really Rainbow Christmas paper, then I also die cut a Dotted Rectangle and a card base out of white cardstock. I sponged my card base with distress inks to create a nice dark background and glued my dotted panel on using Lawn Fawn Glue Tube.

I die cut all the Finley’s ABCs alphabet letters I needed to create my rainbow-colored Merry out of white cardstock, so I could color them with different shades of Distress inks. I added them to my card with foam adhesive then I stamped my sentiment from the Holiday Helpers set. Then I added the snowflakes with foam adhesive too and I trimmed the excess to clean up my card.

Finally, I added some sparkling clear sequins and lots of sparkle on my Merry sentiment with the Wink of Stella clear brush to complete my bright, clean and simple design!

Hope you like my project and thank you so much for stopping by today!
Have a lovely day

We are so happy to have an amazing Guest Designer join us for this challenge! Please welcome Mayra Duran-Hernandez of Mayra’s Designs! We have been so inspired by her beautiful coloring and wonderfully creative card designs so we are so excited to share her gorgeous designs with you!

Mayra created a gorgeous Double Slider Surprise card and a coordinating Say What? Gift Tag with a sweet pastel color palette with happy pops of bright green! She combined images and sentiments from lots of sets including Love You a Latte, Pumpkin Spice, Holiday Helpers, Caramel Apple and Frosty Fairy Friends!

I love that Mayra created a second card with the same beautiful design but this time with gorgeous rich red in the mix!

Now let’s see how our talented Design Team was inspired by this happy color palette!

This fun Reveal Wheel card by Samantha M features Holiday Helpers wrapping gifts for everyone on the “nice list”! The Reveal Wheel Square Add-On is the perfect size for this cute scene!

Karin used the color inspiration to create a cheery Winter Village scene for our adorable Oh What Fun sleigh and Santa bear! She created a gorgeous snowy night sky with ink blending and some white paint splatters!

Joyce was inspired to create a set of colorful pastel Say What? Gift Tags! She stamped the tags with Gingham Backdrops in ink colors of Wild Rose, Moonstone, Celery Stick, Sunflower and Mermaid! She colored the Say What? Christmas Critters in colors to coordinate!

Franci got really creative and made a fun Snow Cool scene on a shaped card! She used Outside In Stitched Christmas Tree Stackables and Stitched Christmas Tree Frames to make this adorable tree-shaped card!

Franci added the cute little Snow Cool igloo on the inside along with a great sentiment from Merry Messages!

Christy‘s card incorporates the Color Inspiration brilliantly with adorable critters in a fabulous collage design! She used Toboggan Together, Beary Happy Holidays, Cheery Christmas, Winter Otter and Sealed with a Kiss!

Samantha‘s card is so happy! She colored the Frosty Fairy Friends images with Copic markers in all the colors of the challenge palette! The Really Rainbow Christmas papers create the perfect backdrop!

Jessica‘s gorgeous card uses the challenge colors sparingly in the windows of the Little Town Border in this lovely snowy landscape! The White Christmas paper from Really Rainbow Christmas looks amazing the glittery silver Stitched Snowflakes!

This wonderful greeting from Winter Big Scripty Words is the perfect sentiment for this beautiful card!
