Samantha’s Cute Meow You Doin? Card Set!

Hey everyone, Samantha here with a fun card set that is inspired by the current Lawn Fawnatics Card Sets challenge! I created a mini card set gift for my sister using a few different Lawn Fawn supplies. I colored each of the cats from Meow You Doin? to look like her sweet little cat. It is really fun to customize the cats and really adds a nice personal touch. The “Perfectly Plaid Spring Petite Paper Pack” has versatile color combinations that compliment any project! After you have your card set complete, you can wrap a piece of yarn around your set to hold your cards and envelopes together!

You have until Sunday April 15th to the enter the Lawn Fawnatics Card Sets challenge! Please check out the challenge for tons of inspiration. I hope you have a wonderful day!

Have a great weekend, Fawnatics! Happy Crafting!

Franci’s Charming Hay There Card Set

April 11, 2018April 10, 2018 - Nancy Krueger 7 Comments

Franci has some fabulous inspiration for our Card Sets challenge today! She created a super charming set of cards using Hay There and Mini Picture Frames!

Hi there! Franci here with a new project! I was inspired by the new challenge theme “card set” to create another cute set of happy cards!

I love the new Hay There stamp set so much!! All those farm critters are so sweet and cute! To create my set I first created all the coordinating card fronts using the second largest die from the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables die set. I die cut my rectangles in white cardstock then I stamped Gingham Backdrops on the top and bottom with a super super light blue ink. (You could use Moonstone ink with second-generation stamping).

Then I stamped all my critters, colored them with Copic markers and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I also added some details with a white gel pen. I die cut all the frames from white and kraft cardstock using the new Mini Picture Frames die set. Then I colored all the white inside pieces sponging on Chipped Sapphire Distress ink to create a dark night sky effect, then I made it starry drawing little dots with a white gel pen.

I arranged all the elements onto my card to position my sentiment and then I stamped it with the same black ink used before on to all the three panels. Using a MISTI or a stamping platform is not necessary to create this set, but it helps a lot! Everything is so much quicker.. so you can create more!!

I glued all the elements down using liquid glue and foam adhesive to add interest and dimension to my cards.

It was so much fun creating them! And the design is simple so you can easily make a ton of these. Hope you like them and that you are inspired to create a card set and join the challenge!
Have a lovely day
Franci
