Lawnscaping #68 - Pinterest Inspired!

 Hi everyone! It's that time again - another Lawnscaping Challenge! Yay! We have a super fun challenge for you this week - to create a card inspired by an image on Pinterest!


You can still play along even if you don't have a Pinterest account. Just find an image somewhere else online and use that as the inspiration for your project! Make sure to include the image on your blog so that we can see where you got your inspiration from!

I was a little bit intimidated by this challenge at first. There are so many pictures to choose from and I had a hard time deciding which one to use! I decided to focus on a Christmas card and I eventually found this photo to use as my inspiration:


I really liked the blue and silver for Christmas and especially how the photo made the ornaments sparkle, so I used that as my inspiration to create this Christmas card:


I used a few different blue inks, as well as silver ink, to stamp all of the snowflakes. The images are from Lawn Fawn's "Making Frosty Friends" and "Winter Gifts" stamp sets. I also added some stickles and glossy accents to the snowflakes to give the card a sparkley look. Here is a close up of the snowflakes:


I hope that you'll get a chance to play along with the challenge this week! The winner of this challenge will receive a stamp set from Lawn Fawn! :)


Thanks so much for stopping by! I can't wait to see what you create for the challenge! :)

Lawnscaping Challenge #28

Good evening everyone! I have a card to share for the Lawnscaping Challenge this week! I made this card last week but this is the first chance I had to post it. I'm recovering from surgery that I had a few days ago and it was hard to find time to take pictures and upload everything, but I found some time this evening. I'm still feeling a little bit sore, but I should be feeling much better in a few days.


Anyways, the challenge this week was to create a card using some form of distress. This was a challenge because I really like nice and clean cards, but I was able to come up with this card:



I decided to make this card for a friend of ours who is having a baby in September! They don't know if they're having a boy or a girl yet, so I distressed some pink and blue paper behind the baby cutout. Here is a close up of the distressed paper:



This was a really neat challenge and I'm glad that I did it! I might start incorporating some more distressing techniques into my cards! Thanks for looking!!

Cricut Cardz Challenge #87

Hello! Here is a card that I made for my first Cricut Cardz Challenge. The challenge was to make a thank you card using hearts from any cartridge, but they couldn't be red or pink. So, I used some scrap paper and my Create-a-Critter cartridge to make this:



I really like it and I'm excited to send it to a friend some day! Well, hope you had a good day. It's almost the weekend!!
