Baby Card - Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #16


Hello everyone! It's Lisa here with a new card. It's been a while since I don't post on my blog. It's been an interesting month and a half after Hurricane Maria. Thankfully we have water every day and electricity almost every day. Two weeks ago our Internet service provider finally fixed the lines, so I have been catching up on all the cardmaking inspiration in all the blogs and on Instagram. 


This new challenge from Lawn Fawnatics has me very excited because some of the first stamps sets I bought when I started cardmaking were from Lawn Fawn. It's one of my favorite stamping companies.




The Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #16 is to use your oldest Lawn Fawn set. I don't have any from the 2010 release, but my oldest sets are from the 2011 release. For today's challenge, I'm using "Plus One" and "Smitty's ABCs" stamp sets. I combined these old sets with the 2017 "Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up" die. 

I created this baby card for my cousin who's having a baby girl. We had a gender reveal party and it was lots of fun. I started by cutting the box card out of some pale pink Bazzil cardstock. I assembled the card and folded out 3 of the sides. 

On the outside of the card, I stamped and die cut the oven from the "Plus One" stamp set and colored it with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I added some shimmer with the Spectrum Noir sparkle pen and a little Glossy Accents for the tiny cupcake. 


Outside of the card

I also cut out the white frame out of some Neenah white cardstock. I stamped the sentiment with some Hippo ink and the tiny hearts with Wild Rose ink. 


For the inside of the card, I cut a circle out of some light blue cardstock and the "Grassy Border" die out of some light green cardstock. I stamped the stork from the "Plus One" stamp and lightly colored it with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. 

Card background

I cut out the large banners out of the pale pink Bazzil cardstock and used "Smitty's ABCs" stamps to stamp out the baby's name. 👶 I love personalizing cards! 

I cut the sticks out of some kraft cardstock and tied the gray thread on both sides. I then glued each letter to the string with some Ranger Multi Medium Matte. 

For the outside flaps, I cut the frames out of Neenah white cardstock and stamped some sentiments from "Happy, Happy, Happy" stamp set from 2017 and the "Plus One" stamp set from 2011. Once again a combination of old and new stamp sets from Lawn Fawn. 

Completed card

I paired the card with a white envelope. I stamped the tag from "Winter Gifts" stamp set with some Hippo & Wild Rose inks and added a little baby rattle from "Plus One" stamp set.
