It's release day over at the Lawn Fawn Shop . Lawn Fawn already send me a few goodies before and I ordered the rest. In celebration of the new release, I created this card with the Tiny Birthday Friends stamp set and Giant Birthday Messages stamp set.

SENDING BIG HUGS (4)

This new Lawn Fawnatics Challenge is all about the little things. Just highlight those tiny images in your stamp sets. I decided to use the ant images from the Crazy Antics stamp set.



For the background, I used a piece of Watercolor Wishes paper. I added dark blue splatter to it, using my Winsor & Newton watercolors. 

I die cut the Giant Sending Big Hugs die from Speckled Eggshell cardstock. I ink blended it with Tea Dye Oxide Ink.



I stamped the ants and colored them all the same: C3 - C5 - C7.

I assembled the card and added highlights to the sentiment and the ants.

It's such a simple card to create, but I really love adding tiny images to this big die cut sentiment.

MAY ALL YOUR WISHES COME TRUE (1)

I created two cards, with the same lay-out but a different theme and color palette. It's both about reading and daydreaming about the stories you have read. But one is with a boy and an astronaut theme and the other is a girl and a pirate theme. 



For both cards I used the Virtual Friends stamp set, Virtual Friends Add-On stamp set, Screen Time stamp set, Den Sweet Den stamp set, Outside In Stitched Thought Bubble Stackables and the Large Slimline with Sliders die set. All from Lawn Fawn. 



I'm going to start with the boy card. I used the Out of This World stamp set to create the astronaut scene in the thought bubble. 



For the background I ink blended with Twisted Citron and Lucky Clover Distress Oxide Inks. For the floor I used a piece of brown Woodgrain Cardstock. The though bubble was ink blended with Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink. I added white paint splatters to it. 

I stamped the images. I colored everything with Copic Markers. Here is a list of all the colors:
Boy: B24 - B26/ Y15 - Y17/ E25 - E29/ E00 - E21 - E04/ YG00 - YG03

I die cut the images and assembled the card. I stamped the sentiment onto a strip of white cardstock, in Grape Soda Ink.

For the girl card I used the Ahoy Matey stamp set.



I ink blended the background with Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade Oxide Inks. I used white Woodgrain cardstock for the floor. The thought bubble was ink blended with Peacock Feathers Distress ink. 



I stamped the images and colored them with the following Copic Markers:

I love both cards so much.

SENDING BIG HUGS (2)

I created a sweet encouragement card, using the Happy Hugs stamp set and Giant Sending Big Hugs die from Lawn Fawn.



I die cut the word die from Guava cardstock and ink blended with Aged Mahogany. This way you create extra dimension and it looks less flat on the card.

For the background I used a clouds stencil. I ink blended the clouds with Faded Jeans Oxide Ink. Not a color I use very often, I mostly use Peacock Feather for skies.



I die cut the Grassy Border die from Cilantro cardstock and ink blended it with Lucky Clover Oxide Inks. This, on the other hand, is my most used combo. 

I stamped the images and colored everything with Copic Markers. I also used images from the A Bug Deal stamp set. Here are the colors I used:
Fox: E31 - E33 0- E35/ E000 - E00
Bunny: W0 - W2 - W3/ E000 - E00
Mice: E41 - E43 - E44/ E000 - E00
Birds: Y15 - Y17/ YR04 - YR68/ BG53 - BG57
Leaves: YG00 - YG03/ YG13 - YG07/ G07 - G28
Hearts: R35 - R39



I die cut all the images and assembled the card. I used a white gel pen to add highlights to the leaves and some dots to the birds. 

Such a sweet card, perfect to send to someone who needs a little pick-me-up.
