- Nancy Krueger 10 Comments

Hello Fawnatics friends! Welcome to a new challenge! For this challenge Jenn has created a fun Card Sketch to inspire your creativity! Your card can be any theme or style as long as we can see how the sketch influenced your design!

We invite you to share your creativity by linking up your crafty projects at the end of this post! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers. This challenge will run for 2 weeks and be open until Sunday, February 28th at 11:59PM ET.

For each challenge, we will randomly select an entry 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!

Let’s see how our Design Team used the Card Sketch to inspire them.

Samantha M used the sketch to place her cute unicorn, rainbow and clouds in her beautiful scene!

Christy used Foursquare Backdrop: Portrait to follow the sketch. She created cute little vignettes using Critters on the Farm!

Karin followed the sketch pretty closely to create a beautiful wedding card! She layered Lacy Heart Stackables with Cole’s ABCs to spell LOVE. Then she used the vines and flowers from Magic Iris Birdhouse Add-On to add pretty detail. She finished the card with a sentiment from Swan Soirée.

Jessica replaced the hearts with the cute typewriters from You’re Just My Type to follow the sketch. I love how the sentiment is continued on each sheet of typing paper. She finished this fun anniversary design with a sentiment from Happy Happy Happy!

Samantha C created a fun birthday card using Beam Me Up! She used the sketch to place these super cute images. I love how the “beam” connects the two elements!

Joyce used the sketch creatively by omitting one of the hearts! Then she used Outside In Stitched Heart Stackables as windows to arrange the Special Delivery images.

Franci created a happy design by replacing the hearts with adorable little flan from Sweet Friends! The tiny strawberries and hearts add cute detail to her clean and simple card.

Caly combined Candy Hearts and XOXO Backdrop: Portrait to create a happy design for Valentine’s Day!

Jenn used the new Distress Ink color Kitsch Flamingo to create a fun Flamingo Together design! You see the sketch reflected in the placement of the Stitched Hearts and the pair of flamingos!

We will share Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 94 What’s the Weather tomorrow!

Jessica’s S’more Friends Like You Card

- Nancy Krueger 2 Comments

Good morning! Jess here with a CAS (clean and simple) card for our current Fun with Food challenge!

To start I masked off a panel of Strathmore Bristol smooth cardstock with painter’s tape and then blended spun sugar, picked raspberry, and abandoned coral distress oxide ink across the panel. I removed the painter’s tape and stamped the sentiment and hearts from Sweet Friends with Versafine and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. The hearts are outlines so I colored them in with a black Copic marker to get the solid hearts.

Next I stamped the s’more from Sweet Friends and the mice from Dandy Day onto white cardstock with Versafine and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. I colored them with Copic markers and then die-cut them with the coordinating dies. I arranged them on the panel and adhered them with a mix of regular adhesive and foam mounting tape to finish the card. I love how the one mouse looks like he’s getting ready to take a bite! 🙂

And that’s it! You have one more weekend to get crafty and I can’t wait to see what you’ll create! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous weekend!

The Fun with Food challenge will be open until Sunday, July 19th at 11:59PM ET.

Thanks so much for sharing this adorable design with us today, Jessica!

Supplies:

Have a happy and crafty weekend, Fawnatics friends!
