Mother’s Day Card feat. Lawn Fawn How You Bean?

Hello friends. Are you in need of a Mother’s Day Card? Does the woman in your life love sewing? Then the new Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Buttons Add-on stampset is perfect for them. I absolutely love the How You Bean? stampset and all the add-ons Lawn Fawn has developed since it’s inception. Mason jars are super cute on cards and having lots of add-ons helps.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp 100# GREEN APPLE Cardstock to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base and a piece of a piece of My Favorite Things Tranquil Textures 6 x 6 Cardstock (I think this paper is discontinued) to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″. Then diecut another piece from the same paper pack and one from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with the Catherine Pooler Designs Dotted Zig Zag Cover Plate. I trimmed the white piece to 4 x 5-1/4″ and the pattern paper to 1-3/8 x 4″.

I stamped the images from Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Buttons Add-on stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used BV0000, BV00 & BV13, RV000, RV52 & RV55, YG01, YG03 & YG11 for the buttons; BG000 and Copic blender (0) for the mason jar; C3, C5 & N6 for the jar lid; and C00 & C1 for the label.

I stamped the sentiment from Lawn Fawn How You Bean? Buttons Add-on stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and trimmed down and added some Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock behind it.

I die cut the letters from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ 1x and 3x from Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Henry’s ABCs and stacked them. I colored the white letters with RV000, RV52 & RV55, Copic Markers. To finish off the card, I added some shimmer with the Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pens to the buttons and the die cut letters.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 4 x 5-1/4″ and a piece of the same pale purple pattern paper to 1 x 5-1/4″. I also diecut the sentiment from the same paper pad with the Lawn Fawn Giant Happy Mother’s Day and added some addtional buttons.

Rainbow Birthday Cards feat. Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Happy Birthday

Hello friends. I’m having more fun today with the Lawn Fawn Giant Outlined Happy Birthday dies. This time I’m using the Portrait die with very simple backgrounds. I’m also turning one into a shaker card. These two cards both feature rainbow backgrounds but in two very different ways.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base, a piece Strathmore 100lb Smooth Bristol Paper to 3-3/4 x 5″ for the background, and a piece of Doodlebug FAIRY GARDEN 6×6 Paper to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2.

I stenciled the background using the Lawn Fawn Corner Rainbow Stencils and Tim Holtz Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Broken China, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Inks. Then added clouds using the My Favorite Things Mini Edge Clouds Stencil and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink.

I die cut the sentiment panel from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Lawn Fawn Portrait Giant Outlined Happy Birthday Die. To finish it off I added some shimmer with the Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pens.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of the same pattern paper to 1 x 5-1/2″ and stamped a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs Young at Heart stampset (not available-part of the Stamp of Approval Collections she used to produce) with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

For the second card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 5-1/2 x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create a card base, a piece Strathmore 100lb Smooth Bristol Paper to 4 x 5-1/4″ for the background.

I ink blended the background using Tim Holtz Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Broken China, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Inks.

I die cut the sentiment panel from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Lawn Fawn Portrait Giant Outlined Happy Birthday Die. I added a piece of Acetate measuring 3-3/4 x 5″ and very thin strips of 3M Foam Tape to the back of the panel to create a shaker. I added some Pretty Pink Posh 4MM Sparkling Clear Sequins and Martha Stewart Sugar Cube Iridescent Hearts & Stars.

2 for 1! Two Cards Using the Positive and Negative With One Die!

Hello friends. I made this cute Easter card using the Lawn Giant Happy Easter die and decided instead of being wasteful, I made 2 cards instead using the positive and negative of the die produces. These giant sentiment dies make great shakers and make an impact on your cards.

For the first card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 10 x 7″ and scored at 5″ to create a card base and another piece to 4-3/4 x 6-3/4″. I inked the background with Broken China Distress Oxide Ink and sprayed with water.

I die cut the sentiment once from Queen & Company’s Flirty Florals 6 x 6 Mat Stack and 3x from Simon Says Stamp 100# GREEN APPLE Cardstock. I also die cut the grass from the same green cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border die and used Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink to add dimension.

I stamped images from Lawn Fawn Eggstraordinary Easter onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Ink. Then colored with Copic Markers. I used R20, C1 and the blender for the bunnies; YG25 & YG17 for the grasses; R81, R83, & R85, Y13 & Y15, BV13 & BV17 for the eggs; W3 & W7, C1 and Y13 for the brush; Y11, Y13 & Y15, E55, E57 & E27 for the paint bucket; YR14 & YR07, R81 & R83, Y13, and Y11 & Y15, B11 & B17, R83 for the butterflies; Y11, Y13 & Y15, YR07, and R20 for the chicks; and Y17, B00, B01, R81 & R85 for the flowers.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from Lawn Fawn Eggstraordinary Easter Add-on stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Ink and added some extra flowers.

I turned the panel into a shaker by adding a piece of Acetate behind it and adding some 3M Foam Tape and sequins from my stash. I addedsome Love From Lizi Peel-offs in Pink Holographic.

I stamped the images onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ from the Lawn Fawn Eggstraordinary Easter Add-on stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Ink. I colored the images with Copic Markers. I used R20, C1, C3 and the blender for the bunny; YG25 & YG17, YR07 & YR14 for the carrots; and Y11, Y15, & Y17 for the egg.

Hello friends. I am in love with the Ranger Simon Hurley Lunar Pastes! So many beautiful colors and I love the metallic sheen too! Need to get more of them! I used it a stencil created from shaped dies. So much fun to use!

Next, I created a stencil out of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ ( 6 x 6″) by die cutting the clovers with the Lawn Fawn Lucky Clovers dies. I used Simon Hurley Minty Fresh and Later Gator Lunar Paste.

Easy Masculine Birthday Card feat. Lawn Fawnโ€™s Giant Happy Birthday

Hi friends. I needed a birthday card for my dad and even though my dad is completely fine with whatever type of card he receives I wanted to keep it kinda masculine bit modern. So I chose a geometric stencil, modeling paste and a few distress inks and made this easy background. Let me show you how easy it is to make!

For this card, I cut a piece of Simon Says Stamp Cardstock 100# Blue Violet to 8-1/2 x 5-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″ to create the card base. Then cut a piece of Watercolor Paper to 4 x 5-1/4″. I colored it by ink blending with Distress Oxide Inks. I used Broken China, Mowed Lawn, Antique Linen, and Villainous Poison. I sprayed water on the background and wiped it off.

I added white Modeling Paste with a palette knife using the Catherine Pooler Gradient Diamond Stencil. For the sentiment, I diecut Simon Says Stamp 100# Black Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Giant Happy Birthday die. I diecut it 3x and stacked them for some dimension.

I finished the card by adding some Ebony Black Nuvo Drops.

On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest to 4 x 5-1/4″ and stamped a sentiment from Catherine Pooler Designs Young at Heart Stampset (Part of a Stamp of Approval Collection – discontinued), with Ranger Tim Holtz Broken China Distress oxide Ink and added the same pattern to the bottom of the card using Catherine Pooler Gradient Diamond Stencil and Broken China, Mowed Lawn, and Villainous Poison Distress Oxide Inks.
