Design Team Inspiration


Catherine was inspired to create with Jolly Christmas Tree, Snow Flurries Backdrop and Winter Big Scripty Sayings Hot Foil Plates. The Cheesy Christmas mice are such a cute addition.


It’s a Cozy Christmas with Samantha! She also used Scripty Wishes to complete the charming greeting!


Karin gave the happy mice of Cheesy Christmas a dramatic red inked background. Her sentiment is from Winter Village.


Mimi created a bokeh background on Black Licorice cardstock using Picket Fence Distress Oxide ink and Lawn Fawn ink cubes. She die-cut Jolly Christmas Tree from both Pixie Dust and white cardstock inking the garland circles with the festive colors.


Samantha combined Christmas Dreams, Winter Dragon and Furry and Bright with colorful layers of cardstock in the inspiration colors.


Franci got the whole Frosty Family together in a fun nighttime scene with Snowy Backdrop.


Joyce stenciled the Coffee Cup Gift Card Holder with Poinsettia Background Stencils!


Christy combined Cheesy Christmas and Christmas Dreams to create a cheery and colorful holiday card.

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 114 – Card Sketch

Hello friends! Today is the start of a new challenge that we hope will be lots of fun! Jenn designed a beautiful Card Sketch for you to use to spark your creativity! Feel free to use the sketch literally or see where the inspiration leads!

We invite you to share your creativity by linking up your crafty projects at the end of this post! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers. This challenge will run for 2 weeks and be open until Sunday, December 19th at 11:59PM ET.

For each challenge, we will randomly select an entry to receive a $25.00 gift certificate to the Lawn Fawn shop! We will also be highlighting a few of your fabulous projects at the close of each challenge! By linking your projects to our challenges you will give permission for us to post your work to this blog and our social media sites. Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

Let’s see what our amazing Design Team created to inspire us!


Karin was inspired to create this gorgeous design using the sketch literally! She featured Puffy Star Stackables, that she inked and arranged beautifully! Adding the sweet little bird from Magic Iris Birdhouse Add-On makes for charming detail!

Christy got really creative and replaced the stars from the sketch with fun rooftop vignettes in her light-hearted holiday card! She used a combination of Rooftop Border and Ho-Ho-Holidays!

Samantha replaced the stars with the adorable Mice on Ice! She placed them on chunks of ice from Critters in the Arctic and Beary Happy Holidays along with a sprinkling of Mini Snowflakes!

Joyce also used Puffy Star Stackables in creating her super cute sketch inspired design! I love how she used the negative space for tucking in the little Say What? Christmas Critters!

Caly‘s beautiful Christmas card design replaces the stars in the sketch with Mini Wreaths! I love the cheery colors she used with the red berries and bows! She included the lovely sentiment from Snow Day!

Jessica‘s gorgeous card is so amazing! She used bright jewel colors for the String of Lights that stand in for the sketch stars. She placed her sentiment, combining Scripty Merry and Merry Messages, according to the sketch.

Franci‘s pastel Christmas cards are so sweet and happy! She recreated the card sketch with Puffy Star Stackables and Winter Unicorn! The wonderful die cut greetings are from Winter Big Scripty Words!

Samantha created an adorable design with an all-over pattern of cute Ho-Ho-Holidays reindeer! One even has a shiny red nose! She used Distress Oxide inks for the beautiful background! For the sentiment she white embossed a greeting from Toboggan Together on Black Licorice cardstock before fussy cutting it and layering it on the strip of vellum. (If you don’t have Samantha’s impressive fussy cutting skills, you could use the Merry Christmas Border instead!)

Jenn interpreted the card sketch with this frosty Jolly Christmas Tree design! She scattered Stitched Snowflakes over the background, then added the pretty joyful wishes greeting that is found in Winter Scripty Sentiments!

I hope you have been inspired by these amazing projects! We will share more Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 113 – Holiday Critters tomorrow! Now it’s time for you to get creative!
