Lawn Fawn: Winter Sparrow & Happy New Year

Image
The Lawn Fawn designers today are showcasing the Winter Sparrow & Happy New Year stamp sets.  Make sure you head on over to the Lawn Fawn blog , to see more inspiration and for a chance to win these sets!! After I stamped the images and colored them in.  I went over the leaves & scarfs in stickles. To me this makes the card extra festive.  The New Year tag is perfect to put on a gift, maybe a bottle of champagne.

Lawn Fawn: Winter In the Park

Image
The Lawn Fawn Design Team is showcasing the Winter in the Park stamp set today.  The stamp set is 4x3, has great sentiments and bench in the park images, to create really great projects! I started, by stamping the light pole in a black ink, as well as the sentiment.  The bow on the pole is a separate stamp, so it made it simple to create the bow (in red ink) .  Using the different snowflake stamps (in blue ink) I created a border on the top and side of the card, to me this gives this one layer card a little bit of depth.  To embellish, I added yellow stickles in the lights, and peppermint twine with a bow. Head on over to the Lawn Fawn blog , for some serious inspiration using this set, and maybe leave a comment to win!

Lawn Fawn: Milo's ABCs

Image
Today, the Lawn Fawn designers are introducing a new ABC stamp set called Milo's ABCs.  The way Lawn Fawn creates their ABC sets (because they line up perfectly) , makes it so easy to create custom sentiments. For my card today, I created the "happy holidays" sentiment in black ink.  Then using the Lawn Fawn snowflake sequins (and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L foam squares, cut), adhered them to the card.  Since I used a foam adhesive it gives the snowflakes depth.  It looked like the sentiment was floating in the middle of the card, so I took a light blue Copic marker and drew a line underneath the sentiment.  To me, this helped ground the sentiment a little more. Head on over to the Lawn Fawn blog for a chance to win this set, as well as view other great projects!!
