Franci cleverly used My Lucky Charm to represent another country she would like to visit! Any guesses?


The clovers from My Lucky Charm create a pretty pattern on Franci’s good luck card. She inked the background with Distress Oxide ink in Lucky Clover, of course. She added the greeting on a banner from Fangtastic Friends Add-On.

So, did you guess Franci‘s sightseeing location? She’s hoping to visit Ireland! Thanks for the inspiration!

My Lucky Charm with Franci!

Franci joins us today with a delightful clean and simple design using My Lucky Charm! It’s adorably clever inspiration for our new Card Sketch Challenge!

After stamping, coloring with Copic markers and die cutting the images from My Lucky Charm, Franci arranged them with foam adhesive following the sketch! To complement the pretty green of the four-leaf clovers she used a coordinating green pattern from Knit Picky Fall to frame the main white panel.

Thanks so much for this adorable inspiration, Franci! This card is absolutely “charming”!

The Card Sketch Challenge will continue through Sunday, April 19th at 11:59PM ET. We are looking forward to seeing all of your creativity!

More Fabulous Inspiration by our Guest Designer, Davina!

Hello Fawnatics Friends! We are one week into our Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song challenge and you guys are seriously impressing us with your creativity! There is still a full week to enter the challenge which is open until Sunday, March 17 at 11:59PM ET.

Our amazing Guest Designer, Davina joins us again today to share 2 more fabulous cards to inspire your crafting! She will tell you about her process for making these clever card designs!

“I love creating scenes from movies and books. And when I’m going through my stamp sets I’m always thinking about what else can be created with the images. I was inspired by one on my favorite childhood movies Bambi. I knew that I had images for all the main characters.

My favorite part of the movie is the “Twitterpated” spring. And I tried to recreate that meadow scene. After die cutting my panels I ink-blended the background and splattered white opaque ink on the golden sky. I stamped out all my images and colored them with Copic markers and white gel pen highlights. I wanted my cute Flower the skunk to be behind the flowers like he was in the movie, so I popped the flowers and grass up on foam tape and placed him behind.

Thumper sits atop the log from the Toadally Awesome set, Bambi is standing in front. I didn’t forget Owl who is perched on a branch whistling away. It was such a joy to create this iconic scene and I hope that you play along with the current challenge to create your own scenes.”

“I am such a lover of everything Harry Potter that I couldn’t resist making a something inspired by the Wizarding World. Honeydukes Sweet Shop is by far one of my favorite magical places.”

“After already creating two projects I wanted to try something a little different. I wanted to make a scene that would appear like I was living in the Wizarding World.  And what would the table look like upon emptying my pockets after a day in Hogsmeade Village. I’d have Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans, and Chocolate Frogs. There would be Droobles best blowing gum and Fizzing Wizzbees. I would have brought home a Pumpkin Pasty for later and some sweet Jelly Slugs (formerly a cute snail from Gleeful Gardens who lost him shell).”

Thank you so much, Davina! Your card art is amazing and we are so happy that you joined us for this challenge!
