A Beautiful Winter Scene with Ildi!

Today we have a gorgeous card by our Guest Designer to share with you! Ildi (@hellopilda) is so talented, she creates wonderful scenes for her cards! Her use of color is amazing too! This card is perfect inspiration for our Happy Little Critters challenge. This challenge will be open until Sunday January 20th at 11:59PM ET. We hope you will join us!

This happy card design combines several sets in 3 super cute vignettes all combined in one scene! The bunnies from Happy Easter are hanging out with the snowman from Making Frosty Friends! Winter Bunny is sledding with the cute squirrel from Joy to the Woods and in the background there’s a charming village created using Simply Celebrate Winter and the trees from Sweet Christmas!

Ildi’s beautiful coloring adds so much dimension, fun and detail to all the images, especially the little critters!

Thank you so much, Ildi! We have enjoyed having you as our Guest Designer and sharing your amazing creativity!

Have an awesome week, Fawnatics friends!

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 41 – Shaped Cards

Hello Fawnatics Friends! It’s time to start a new challenge! This time we are looking cards that have a fun shape! A box, a Christmas tree or a pumpkin! A star, a heart or a circle! Have fun with this theme and let your creativity soar! This new challenge will be open until Sunday, December 2nd at 11:59PM ET. Your card should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers.

For each challenge, we will randomly select a winner 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!

We are so excited to welcome Grace Camou as our Guest Designer for this challenge! She is a very talented cardmaker and has been wowing us with her amazing creativity! You can find her on Instagram as @allbygrace! Be sure to check out her Instagram, you will be so inspired! Now let’s share her amazing card for this challenge!

What looks like just a regular card is actually a Storybook Shadow Box card to which Grace added a decorated cover flap! How cute is that gingerbread and candy vignette?!

Grace used the banner die that comes in the Double Slider Surprise die set to add the sweet sentiment to the “book cover” flap on the front of the box! This design is just so fun and unique!

When the card folds flat for mailing, the Sweet Christmas sentiment on the side of the box will be visible as the card is removed from the envelope! Too clever!

Grace used our Sweet Christmas stamp set to build an adorable layered scene on the inside! She created a lovely pink and teal color palette using papers from a few different collections! She also added the Sweetest Flavor ice cream cone to the inside panels in pretty pastel shades!

Now let’s see what our awesome Design Team created to inspire your creativity!

Samantha‘s fabulous Christmas scene was created on an Outside In Stitched Cloud shape! She used Winter Village and Winter Skies for the scene!

Jessica used a Stitched Circle for her adorable shaped card! She combined the mug and fun sentiment from Thanks a Latte with glittery snowflakes!

Franci created a sweet snowscape inside a Shadow Box Card using the cute penguins from Snow Cool! The pretty pastel colors are perfect in this frosty scene!

Karin‘s beautiful little Winter Skies scene looks so adorable in the heart-shaped card! She used an Outside In Stitched Heart with a Lacy Heart to create the card base.

Samantha C got really creative and made her card base using the Candy Box die! She used Holiday Sparkle cardstock to add the glittery silver to the sides and the sweet Holiday Helpers fit perfectly on this unique card design!

Joyce used our new Outside In Stitched Christmas Tree for her festive and fun shaped card! She added a Bannertastic banner with a greeting from Thanks a Latte! The fun accessories under the tree are from the Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On set!

Christy used the Shadow Box Card dies to make the box base and add the snowy trees! The Shadow Box Ocean Add-On was used to create the sweet scalloped window! She filled the scene with critters from Joy to the Woods and finished with a sentiment from Ready Set Snow for her fantastic holiday card!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and of course we’ll share our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 40 tomorrow!
