Slimline Interactive Birthday Card featuring Lawn Fawn

Hello friends. This card features the Lawn Fawn Fly High stampset. This is an example on how to create an interactive slimline card with this stampset. The hot air balloons can be used in a variety of ways. Check out the mini slimline Valentine’s Day card I made with it to see more ideas in my previous post.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock to 7โ€ณ x 8-1/2โ€ณ and scored at 3-1/2โ€ณ to create the card base. I diecut a piece of Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Cardstock with the largest stitched slimline frame from the Lawn Fawn Large Slimline with Sliders, which measures 3-1/2 x 8-1/2″.

I used the Simon Says Stamp Stencil BUILD A RAINBOW with Tim Holtz Squeezed Lemonade, Scattered Straw, and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Inks to color the background. I splashed some water onto it and dried it off.

I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn Fly High stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I paper pieced the hot air balloins using the Lawn Fawn Stripes ‘n Sprinkles 6×6 Petite Pack and Doodlebug Dot Stripe Rainbow Petite Prints 6×6 Inch Paper. Then colored the rest of theb images including the balloon’s bucket with Copic Markers. I used E13, E25, & E27 for the balloon bucket; RV52 & RV55, Y13 & Y17, YG03 & YG45, B24 & 28, and BV11 & BV17 for the banners; BG000 & 0 for the clouds; C0, C1 & C3, R20, Y13 & Y17, BV11 & BV17, RV52 & RV55, and B24 for the elephants; C1, C3 & C5, YG03 & YG45, and Y13 & Y17.

Before adhereing my images. I die cut the slider mechanism using the Lawn Fawn Large Slimline with Sliders. Then, I stamped a sentiment using Lawn Fawn Fly High stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then cut them down.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Happy Happy Happy-on with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

Mini Slimline Valentine’s Day Card featuring Lawn Fawn

Hello friends. It’s time to start the new year off with some Valentine’s Day cards. My first card is a mini slimline featuring the Lawn Fawn Fly High stampset. The little critters are adorable and can be used in a variety of ways.

For this card, I cut a piece of Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ to 6 x 6″ and scored at 3″ to create a card base and another piece which I die cut using the Queen & Company Foundations 17 Dies to create a panel measuring 2-3/4 x 5-3/4″ for the background.

I used the MFT Mini Cloud Edges Stencil with Tim Holtz Salty Ocean, Uncharted Mariner, and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide Inks to color the background. I splashed some water onto it and dried it off. Then, added some splatters using White and Gold Acrylic paint.

I stamped the images from the Lawn Fawn Fly High stampset and the hearts from the Lawn Fawn Winter Village Stampset onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used R81, R83 & R85, R17, R27 & R59, N2, N4 & N5 for the balloons; R17, R27 & R59 for the hearts; R20, E23 & 27 for the mouse; and R20, C0, C1 & C3 for the elephant.

I stamped a sentiment using Lawn Fawn’s Milo’s ABCs onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then cut them down. I added a piece of pattern paper behind the words from the Catherine Pooler Designs Be Mine Prints 6 x 6 Patterned Paper.

On the inside of the card, I stamped a sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Happy HappyHappy Add-on with Catherine Pooler Designs Rockin’ Red Ink.
