Right as Rain - Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis

Lawn Fawn Spring House

Hello! Today I am sharing a spring-themed card created with a variety of Lawn Fawn supplies.

It was a lot of fun choosing colors for the spring-themed house. I used a number of die sets to construct the background. It was a bit tricky trimming off the frame of the Leafy Tree Background!

Hope there are signs of spring in your part of the world (Northern Hemisphere that is).

Hello! Today I am sharing a spring-themed card featuring products from Penny Black’s “Secret Garden” release.

This release is packed with stamps and dies well-suited for a multitude of spring occasions. There are a number of scene-building dies in this release, many of which I’ve used on my card.

I stamped the background with a sentiment in the #30-703 Blooming Sentiments set.
I cut the tree, flowers, bird, and heart with the #51-596 Bird and Branch set.
I used the #51-630 Rolling Hills and #51-623 Pretty Picket sets to add to the scene and accessorized the foreground with the #51-635 Buckets of Flowers set.

Paper Smooches – Cacti Scene

Hello! Today I’m sharing a die-cut scene created with the Cacti die set from Paper Smooches. This card is a change of pace now that Valentine’s Day is in the rear-view mirror.

I colored white cardstock with a variety of Distress Inks and cut it with dies in the Cacti die set.
I added the needles and blooms to the cacti and placed them into pots.
I stamped the Fun and Flirty sentiment on to the card base.
From a horizon line, I applied Distress Inks for the sky and for the ground, masking with a vellum strip.
I added the cacti and other plants to the scene.

Hello! Today I am sharing a Valentine created with a variety of Lawn Fawn products including the Mom + Me stamp set. I’ve had a lot of fun digging out various supplies to create more non-traditional, less formal Valentines.

I stamped the owl and tree stump from the Mom + Me set, colored the images with Copic markers and colored pencils, and cut the images with their coordinating dies.
I cut the card base with the largest die in the Outside In Stitched Scallop Square Stacklets set.
I cut a 4″ square with the Lawn Fawn Dotted Square die set and embossed it with the Woodgrain Backdrop die.
I cut a heart from patterned paper.
I stamped the Mom + Me sentiment and cut it with a banner die in the Extra Sentiments set.
I cut small hearts using dies in the Wonderful Window and the Speech Bubbles sets for accents.
