Doin' a Bit of Lawnscaping


For The Lawnscaping Challenge that is! I'm so very honored to be guest designing for this new, upcoming challenge featuring all things Lawn Fawn! In tune with the holiday coming shortly, this time around the challenge is all about love, to be interpreted in any way you wish!


Now I wish I would have had these adorable stamps, or even these, but I chose to go with this set and this sentiment set to represent love on my "old school" office anniversary card. A bit of distressing, coloring, paper piecing and glossy accents helped me achieve look.

 
Here's the skinny on the challenge: Use any Lawn Fawn Stamp to represent your interpretation of Love and upload your cards to the Lawnscaping Challenge site by February 16th. The winner receives their choice of any Lawn Fawn set. (Wow, I wish I could be in the running for this one!)

Thank you again, Laurel, and The Lawnscaping Challenge Team, for having me as a guest designer this month. And I would be remiss if I didn't give a quick shout out to Erin as well, for sending me my first LawnFawn set! Thank you!

Supplies Used:
Cardstock: (White) Georgia Pacific, (Pink) SU

Patterned Paper: (Yellow Text from Twitterpated Collection) Pebbles, (Pink Grid) SU
Stamps: (Just My Type, Sophie's Sentiments) Lawn Fawn
Ink: (Onyx Black) Versafine, (Vintage Photo Distress) Ranger
Other: (Enamel Accents) Ranger, (Colored Pencils) PrismaColor, (Labels 4 Nestabiltiies) Spellbinders, (Black Floss)

  19. Look at these bright colors! Way to go! And who can resist a clever use of non-love stamps to express love? *grin* A typewriter would do it for me!
