Mimi highlighted the sparklers in her stunning Happy New Year card!


The background for Mimi’s card starts with Stitched Windy Backdrop cut from Black Licorice cardstock that she splattered with Liquid Stardust! Then she die-cut Giant Oh What Fun from white cardstock, trimmed the greeting to use the frame on her card. You could also use a Stitched Rectangle Frame.

She white embossed the sentiments from Just Add Glitter and Window Scene: Winter on a rectangle label to add to the bottom of the card.


To create the sparklers, Mimi got creative combining Stitched Fireworks cut from holographic cardstock. She also used the coordinating dies for the Fireworks Hot Foil Plates to cut more fireworks from holographic cardstock and vellum before layering them all together!


For the sparkler sticks, she used the skinny rectangle piece from Stitched Happy Heart and Candy Cane Lane 6×6 paper. Then she attached it to a rounded rectangle piece from Magic Picture Changer Oven Add-On in kraft cardstock.

As a final touch, she added more sparkle with holographic cardstock and the snowflakes from Snow Globe Gift Tag.


I love sparklers and I love this fun card, Mimi! Thank you for inspiring us!

The I Heart Pandas are celebrating the new year in Catherine‘s beautifully clever card!


Catherine started with a Twinkling White paper panel behind the Fancy Lattice Backdrop. Then she colored the bamboo stalks from Bamboo Forest Backdrop: Landscape to layer on the background. She created a circle shaker element filled with colorful confetti and attached it to the center of her card.


And then she gave the playful I Heart Pandas and I Heart Pandas Add-On critters party hats to celebrate the new year in style before tucking them into the scene! She finished with a custom sentiment combining I Heart Pandas with Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter!

This shaker card is so delightful, thank you for sharing your creativity today, Catherine!

We want to thank Catherine so much for all the amazing inspiration she has shared with us! This is her last post with Lawn Fawnatics but she will continue to inspire us with a monthly post at the Lawn Fawn blog.
