- Nancy Krueger 25 Comments

Let’s celebrate summer and all the sun-drenched activities of this care-free season with our new challenge: Summertime Fun! This challenge will be open until 11:59PM ET on Sunday, July 16th.

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 will keep the rules few!

For this challenge we are welcoming a Guest Designer! Big hugs and thanks to Wendie for being the first of our Lawn Fawnatics Guest Designers!

Wendie‘s beautiful card uses Flamingo Together with Critters from the Past palm trees! The sentiment from Summertime Charm is perfect for this bright and sunny design!

Now for some inspiration from the Design Team:

Christy’s adorable Ahoy, Matey card features the most iconic of summertime destinations: a tropical island!
I love how Samantha M. combined the sentiments from a variety of sets, including Hello Sunshine, Life is Good, Love You S’more, Violets ABCs and Let’s Play to add fun text and sentiments to her adorable summer hockey scrapbook page! For some cuteness she added those sweet and smiley clouds from Plane and Simple!
Jessica‘s Mermaid for You card is so delightful! I love how she stamped the fun school of fish in a loop around the mermaid, that is so clever!
Roxanne‘s super cute card depicts a wonderful summer day spent flying kites! Yay, Kites and Little Picket Fence Border set the scene for fun!
Karin created a sweet summer card using Mermaid for You, So Jelly and Life is Good! I love how she framed this cute scene with the oval from Magic Color Slider!
Samantha C gathered some of her favorite woodland critters for a fun summertime BBQ! Jump for Joy, Party Animal, Stinkin’ Cute and Let’s BBQ star in this happy little  scene!
For Nancy, summer means the beach! She colored the Louie’s ABCs letters in beach-y colors with Copic markers, then added a Spring Showers sun and Smitty’s ABCs sentiment.

Join us here tomorrow for our Challenge 7 Featured Fawnatics and our Random Winner!
