This card was a recreation of a design by Marine Simon. Her original post with an institutional video can be found here: http://bluemarinecraft.blogspot.com/2019/03/lawn-fawn-beautiful-wildlife-pull-tab.html?m=1 How fun is that pull tab surprise?? I adjusted the card to fit on a 5x7 base, so I used a few different animals and placed things a little differently. I had… Continue reading A Savanna Birthday

You Color My World
This card was inspired by a card with the same layout by Lawn Fawn's Design Team member Lynette. I used different papers and colors on mine and I love the way it turned out! The Mermaid cardstock with the beautiful plaid and then the pink, I just think they all go together so wonderfully. It… Continue reading You Color My World
More Retirement Fun
I couldn't resist creating another beach scene! I recently got the Lawn Fawn Flamingo Together stamp set and I just had to use it. 😊 They look so cute and I have so many ideas for how I want to use them on more cards in the future. I also really love the seagulls in… Continue reading More Retirement Fun
Hola
I love that Lawn Fawn has this Spanish Scripty Sayings stamp! Something you might not know about me: I started teaching myself Spanish when I was 11 years old. I learned by playing with the kids in my neighborhood and I even kept a little red notebook with lists of all the vocabulary words I… Continue reading Hola
A Relaxing Retirement Card
To make the Tiki Bar on this card, I followed the instructions by Tammy Stark from the Lawn Fawn Design Team. (She comes up with such great ideas!) I adjusted the measurements to end up with a smaller hut so that it would fit on a 5x7 card. I'll include my changes below. To read… Continue reading A Relaxing Retirement Card
Gnome One Like You
This is the new Garden Gnome from Lawn Fawn, to celebrate their 11th birthday! To say I'm over the moon that Lawn Fawn started their company 11 years ago would be an understatement. They have brought me so much joy and I'm very, very happy their company exists! 😊 Materials used: Lawn Fawn Stitched Cloud… Continue reading Gnome One Like You
Happy Birthday To Moo
This was my version of a card design by Tammy Stark from the Lawn Fawn Design Team. She made this awesome card with a barn created with all Lawn Fawn dies. Her card was a bigger custom size so I adjusted the measurements to fit a 5x7 card. Her card is here on the Lawn… Continue reading Happy Birthday To Moo
Pet Friends
This card took me so much longer to complete than it should have. I wanted to use Tea Dye distress oxide ink for the brick because I liked that color and don't often have a use for it, but then it was so hard to coordinate the other colors on the rest of the card… Continue reading Pet Friends
To Brighten Your Day
This might not be the best card I've ever made but I still wanted to post it. I'm still in the middle of my year-long quest to use all my stamps and that definitely influenced me to try and use more on one card than maybe I normally would. I always find these hot air… Continue reading To Brighten Your Day

A Spring Hello
This card was inspired by Zsofi (https://safsafdesign.wordpress.com/) who made a very similar card. I liked the idea of using this stamp set for a simple spring card and not necessarily an Easter card. I'm most proud of the coloring of those bunnies, which is why I took a close up of each one. 😊 I… Continue reading A Spring Hello
A Sweet Thank You
This was the first A7 card I've made in a very long time. The color scheme and layout were inspired by the awesome Chari Moss from Lawn Fawn. She made a card like this that said "We Belong Together" at the bottom, with different pairs of things in the circles. I loved the colors and… Continue reading A Sweet Thank You
Gingham & Plaid Easter Cards
If you read my last post, you know it took me 6 tries to get the Gingham Backdrop lined up correctly. So of course once I did it, I had to do it again for a second card. 😊 This was actually my first correct background and the card from yesterday was the second, but… Continue reading Gingham & Plaid Easter Cards
An Earresistible Easter Card
This card was inspired by a card from Lawn Fawn DT member Elena. I changed a lot of things but I liked the idea of a kind of oval layout. This was my first time using the Gingham Backdrop. I had to stamp it on one of the sheets that came with my MISTI, then… Continue reading An Earresistible Easter Card
Easter Is Coming!
I don't always use embossing folders because I often want more space for stamped images, but I really like this one. I had to get a close up of the texture. 🙂 Materials used: Matelasse embossing folder by Anna GriffithLawn Fawn Shimmer pastel cardstockLawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Circle StackablesDistress oxide inks: Tumbled GlassLawn Fawn… Continue reading Easter Is Coming!

Two Get Well Cards
This was my first time making any kind of "window" card. It's tricky because you want some sort of design or interest to show through the window, but then you need a space to write inside and you don't want to have to try and write over patterned paper. I think the label area was… Continue reading Two Get Well Cards
