Hello friends. Need a quick card for the holidays?!? The Lawn Fawn String of Lights Backdrop Die makes that very easy! Actually this die could be used for other occasions – Halloween, Valentine’s Day cards… So many combinations are available with this die set.
Stay tuned for future blog posts showing how I use pieces of this die on other cards.
For this 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″ as well as a piece of Lawn Fawn Candy Cane Lane 6 x 6″Inch Paper Pack to 4-1/4 x 5-1/2″ for the background.
I die cut the lights background from Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ using the Lawn Fawn String of Lights Backdrop Die and the frame from Lawn Fawn Candy Cane Lane 6 x 6″Inch Paper Pack using the largest frame from the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Frame.
I die cut the light bulbs from Tim Holtz idea-ology Metallic Jewels 8 x 8 Kraft Stock and Tim Holtz Idea-ology Metallic Gold & Silver Kraft Stock.
For the sentiment, I die cut the word ‘ Merry’ from Stampin’ Up! Real Red 8-1/2 x 11″ Cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Henry’s ABCs and stamped a sentiment from Lawn Fawn Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter Stamps onto Neenah 100lb Classic Crest Cardstock 8.5 X 11″ with Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I added some shimmer to the die cut word with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Sparkle Pen.
On the inside of the card, I cut a piece of Lawn Fawn Candy Cane Lane 6 x 6″ Inch Paper Pack to 1 x 4-1/4″.
