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.

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 4

Hello there again! 

Today I'm sharing a card I made for my brother celebrating his graduation from Pharmacy School. I also submitted this card for Lawn Fawnatics challenge #4 titled: "Black, White and Bright". The challenge is to do a black and white card with a pop of color. 

Here's a look at the card I made:

For the front of the card, I used Lawn Fawn's "Let's Polka in the Meadow" petite paper pack, the black and white hearts patterned paper. 

I then stamped a hot air balloon from Lawn Fawn's "Blue Skies" stamp set with Archival black ink on a piece of Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper. I used this paper because it blends the "Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens" beautifully. I colored the image in bright rainbow colors. I added some shimmer with a Spectrum Noir clear shimmer pen.   

I used the coordinating die to cut the image. I added a graduation cap from Sunny Studio Stamps called "Woo Hoo". Here is a close up of the hot air balloon with the graduation cap. You can see the beautiful shimmer. 

I adhered the balloon with some foam tape to add some dimension. 

To finish the card, I used a sentiment from Lawn Fawn's "Blue Skies" stamp set and added it to the top of the card. At the bottom of the card, I stamped a sentiment from Lawn Fawn's "Happy, Happy, Happy" stamp set. 

I hope you liked today's card. If you liked my card or have any questions, please leave a comment below. 

See you next time!

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 3

Hello there! 

Today I'm sharing a card I made for my brother and sister-in-law who are expecting a baby real soon. I also submitted this card for Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #3 called Outstanding Occasions. The challenge is to make a card about a special occasion such as anniversaries, weddings, new babies or graduations. 

Here's a look at the card I made:

(Baby Card Front)

To create this card, I first cut a piece of Neenah white 110 lb. cardstock with Lawn Fawn's "Stitched Rectangle" dies. Then I embossed that piece with the "Pinwheels" embossing folder by Sizzix. 

I then die cut a piece of green cardstock with Lawn Fawn's "Grassy Border" die and then with the "Stitched Rectangle" dies to give it a continuous stitched look. I then heat embossed the sentiment with Ranger's white embossing powder. I adhered the grass to the white panel.

I then stamped a baby mobile from Lawn Fawn's "Plus One" stamp set and colored it with ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I put some Spectrum Noir clear shimmer pen over the moon and stars and then cover them in Glossy Accents. I set them aside to dry. 

I adhered the white panel to some yellow patterned paper using some fun foam to add some dimension. After it was dry, I glued the baby mobile with some foam tape to add a little more dimension. To finish the card front, I adhered everything to a top folding 5.5" x 4.25" white card base. 

On the inside of the card I cut a circle out of some purple glitter paper and adhered it to the center. Then I stamped and colored a stork from the "Plus One" stamp set and adhered it. I also die cut a congratulations sentiment from Spellbinders' "Sentiments One" dies and adhered it to the circle.
