Accio Bookmarks

Good morning, everyone! I can never resist anything related to Harry Potter. So when I tried thinking of a fun project to share with you all this month, I naturally put on my sorting hat and got to getting creative.

My oldest wanted some bookmarks, and I obliged by making a set of Harry Potter inspired ones for him. It's pretty fitting since we are finally on Half Blood Prince. It's great to reread those books with him because I get to relive it. And I'm trying reallllly hard to get my youngest interested so I can eventually read them to him as well.

I used a lot of different sets for these which is the fun part. I mean, just imagine all the uses each of these sets have seen from everyone using them! I've listed all the supplies I've used at the bottom to create these. They are double sided in case you're wondering. Each of the bookmarks are 2"x6" for those wanting to make some of your own. These would also be fab stocking stuffers or sent with a gift of a book for someone using whatever they're interested in as the theme. I already have ideas for more!

 

ACCIO BOOKMARKS!

  

  

Here they all are:

1. Quidditch brooms and a golden snitch

2. Gryffindor scarf and Harry's little face complete with lightning bolt scar

3. Mandrakes and earmuffs

4. Hedwig wearing Gryffindor colors on her scarf and letters

 

 

I hope you enjoyed my project today and you're inspired to take a good look at your stamps and create something for yourself, or a loved one, teacher, daycare provider, or whoever would love a custom set of fun bookmarks themed with something they adore. Thanks for checking them out!

Happy Birthday Muggle!

Good morning! Roxanne here today with a card that will make all you Harry Potter fans out there swoon. I must admit, this project knocked off my own socks.

Anyone who knows me knows I LOVE, LOVE, LOOOOOOOVE Harry Potter. I'd turn my room into a Hogwarts dream if I could. No joke.

So I was sitting wondering what type of project I was going to make for my post this month and I grabbed the owl from the Lawn Fawn Winter Owl and knew exactly what I wanted to do. I mean, he's wearing a scarf, so that right there screams HP to me. I cannot be the only one ;)

Once I started coloring him, the idea to put him on a broom came to mind. Then it was like a domino effect and I came up with this...

 

I made him into Harry Potter playing Quidditch. I thought this is perfect to give to the Harry Potter fan in my life, or just keep for myself to display. Either way! 

For the background, I used Distress Inks in Dusty Concord and Tumbled Glass and Memento in Nautical Blue with craft sponges and I made this magical looking sky. 

I then took some yellow patterend paper I had and cut a skinny strip for the stand and then two dies to make the opening of the Quidditch goal. I glued that down to the sky scene. For the sentiment, I took the happy birthday from the Lawn Fawn Party Animal set and stacked them. Under that, I used Milo's ABC's for spelling out MUGGLE! I gave the Muggle a bit of a shadow with some white ink behind it. 

 

I used the broom from the Lawn Fawn Critters in Costume, colored in with my Spetrum Noir Alcohol Markers and fussy cut it out. I used trimmed down foam adhesive behind it to give it dimension. 

Then I colored in Harry. I used a fine tip marker to draw on the scar to give it that special touch! Harry sports his scar, so this is no different! I placed him on the broom with some more foam adhesive. 

For the stars, I used some small rhinestones I had to make it sparkle a bit and bring some more life to this card. 

I hope you enjoyed my project today as much as I enjoyed making it! Thanks for stopping by.

Handmade notebooks!

Hello Lawnscapers!!

Happy Saturday!! 
It's Lenny from the FIT here with you today!
Last month, I made some Post-it note holders and now I decided to make some 
matching notebooks. 
Not really matchy matchy, because for the Post-it note holders, I used some
Lawnfawndamental notecards ... but there aren't any coordinating patterned papers.
The notebooks look the same though, but they are bigger than the Post-it note holders.

Here are some photos . . .

For a book list ... ?

Small travel journal ... 

I used some 12X12 patterned papers and cut them to this size: 
15.2 cm x 30.5 cm  (in inches: 5.9 x 12) 
I scored at 14 cm (5.5 inch) and then at 28 cm (11 inch).
After you fold the notebook, it's easier when you cut a strip from the front cover,
that way the little flap on the right side will fold over better. 
I used some computer paper for the inside; size: 14 cm x 24 cm (5.5 inch x 9.4)

Thanks for poppin' by today!! 
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!! 

And ... there's still some time left to play along with our current challenge: CAS!!
