Jenn’s Clever Card Inspired by True Crime

- Nancy Krueger Leave a comment

We hope you are having fun with the Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song challenge and we can’t wait to see your creativity! This challenge will be open until this Sunday, April 3 at 11:59PM ET.

Jenn joins us today with a super clever card inspired by her interest in true crime!

To create her “crime scene” Jenn combined Happy Village, Village Shops and Village Heroes sets. This is such a clever way to send apologies; her “Mea Culpa” greeting is spelled out with Finley’s ABCs.

Jenn even included the murder weapon; can you spot it? It’s from Pick of the Patch!

The crime scene tape is made using Harold’s ABCs along with yellow and black marker.

I love that Jenn includes her Copic marker list to make it easy to recreate her designs!

Thanks so much, Jenn for sharing your clever and unique inspiration today!

And for all the true crime fans out there, Jenn created a playlist of her favorite podcasts on Spotify.

Jenn has two new online Lawn Fawn classes coming up! Berry Fun and Rain or Shine! Have you signed up yet? These classes are open to everyone, worldwide! More details here

And be sure to put the next “Create with Us” Live event on your calendar and join Jenn and Kelly on April 8th as they craft up some cute Beary Rainy Day cards! More details about it here

Caly’s Happy Car Critters Holiday Card!

- Nancy Krueger 1 Comment

Hi Friends! It’s Caly and I’m so happy you can join me today for a Happy Holiday Critters card for Challenge #89! Lawn Fawn has such adorable critters and the holiday critters have that added charm that gets me every winter! Today, I’m using the Car Critters Christmas Add-On set to make my holiday card festive.

I began by stamping my background panel with the Over the Mountain Borders. For the rest of the images (Car Critters, Car Critters Christmas Add-On and Winter Skies trees) I stamped on another piece of white cardstock knowing I would die-cut to adhere them to the background panel. I colored everything with Copic markers and added white gel highlights to them using my Sakura Gelly Roll Pen.

Copic markers:
Reds: R30, R22, R24, R29
Yellows: Y11, Y15
Greens: G21, G24, G28, G29
Blues: B0000, B000, B000, B01, B02
Browns: E000, E51, E30, E33, E35, E37
Grays: [W00, W1, W3, W5], [C0, C2, C4, C6]

Next, I used the Road Border die to die-cut my road in black. I rotated it to fit the curve of the mountain background so I didn’t have to trim it where the road meets the mountain border. Then using the Y15 Copic marker, I added the yellow to brighten the dash marks with color.

To finish, I attached my images with foam adhesive to give everything lots of dimension. I love this holiday scene and I hope you do too!

Happy Holiday Critters challenge runs 3 weeks through December 6th at 11:59pm PST, so I hope that’s plenty of time for you to play along! Have a blessed day!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Costume Party Inspiration with Joyce!

- Nancy Krueger 1 Comment

Joyce crafted a cute trick or treat scene for our Awesome Autumn challenge!

How fun is this Costume Party scene with just the right amount of spookiness! Joyce used Village Border to create the houses with glowing windows! The street lamp was borrowed from Here We Go A-Waddling and it looks great with our Road Border to light the path!

Joyce added some Distress ink blending to the Stitched Hillside Borders and the Grassy Border and created an awesome night sky!

Hey Fawnatics friends! If you are in the So Cal area here’s your opportunity meet the Lawn Fawn crew!
