Lawn Fawn Hello

Hello! Today I am sharing a square “Hello” card featuring Lawn Fawn supplies.

Lawn Fawn Hello

  • I stamped, Copic-colored, and pencil-colored the elephants from the Wild for You stamp set. (I recently shared a card using images from the same set here.)
  • I created a scene with clouds and a grassy border and matted the scene with a scalloped square.
  • I added die-cut flowers cut from SU Watermelon Wonder cardstock (now retired) to coordinate with the patterned paper base.
  • I masked the sentiment stamped on the die-cut cloud.

Penny Black Butterflies – Two Versions

Hello! Today I am sharing two cards on which I’ve combined a variety of Penny Black supplies, which I have owned for years. I tend to get so caught up with new products, I often neglect supplies I already own. The designs of both cards I have previously used.

Penny Black Butterflies

  • I stamped white cardstock using the 40-254 Decadence stamp with a now-retired Stampin’ Up ink (Soft Sky).
  • I cut the stamped cardstock with a die in the 51-007 Tagged set three times.
  • I cut the two butterflies with dies in the 51-006 Flutters set.
  • I stamped the 30-286 Heartfelt sentiment on to light blue cardstock and cut it with a circle die.
  • I added the elements to a card base dry-embossed with the Taylored Expressions “Weathered” folder.
  • I added twine to the middle tag.

I previously used this same card design here.

On my second card, I used the same color scheme and many of the same elements.

I previously used this same design on cards here and here.

Paper Smooches You’re Swell

Hello! Today I am sharing a CAS friendship card featuring Paper Smooches supplies. I have created similar cards in the past using a now-retired My Favorite Things die that cuts a three-circle frame.

Paper Smooches You're Swell

  • My starting point for this card was the Echo Park Dive Into Summer patterned paper.
  • I cut the three-circle frame for the underwater scenes and sentiment.
  • I combined the Paper Smooches Water Wise and Ocean Scene die sets with the Surf and Turf sentiment, choosing colors for the ocean plants and the fish to tie in with the patterned paper colors.

Spellbinders May Clubs Blog Hop

  • To create my CAS card, I used two of the dies in the May Small Die of the Month set to cut detailed borders. The dies can be lined up together and cut simultaneously in a variety of combinations. I cut the borders from three different cardstock colors.
  • I lined the backs of the die-cut borders with Whip Cream cardstock.
  • I heat-embossed the sentiment in silver on to Whip Cream cardstock.

  • I added the Butterfly Frame die-cut, cut three times for additional dimension, to the top of the card as a focal point.
  • I assembled the card by adhering the panels on to a card base, starting with the bottom layer first.
  • At the point where the white panel meets the pink detailed border, I added a thin strip of Whip Cream cardstock.
