Tea and Gratitude Inspiration with Nancy

I have been tasked with sharing some inspiration for this last weekend of the Coffee, Tea and Treats challenge! I used my favorite papers from Sweater Weather Remix to make a couple of cups of tea! This challenge will be open until Sunday, October 31 at 11:59PM ET.

I love to keep things simple so I used Outside In Stitched Mug and Sweater Weather Remix 6×6 papers to create the two tea cups. I added a Scripty Autumn Sentiments greeting and little leaves from Fall Leaves Backdrop. That’s it, easy peasy!

I am so filled with gratitude for this wonderful Lawn Fawnatics community! Thank you all so much for joining our challenges and sharing your amazing talent and creativity with us!

Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 111 – Coffee, Tea and Treats!

We are well into “hot beverage” season so let’s create with a fun Coffee, Tea and Treats theme! Lawn Fawn has lots of sets both stamps and stand alone dies to inspire some fun crafting!

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, October 31st 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!

Christy‘s absolutely gorgeous card says Autumn loud and clear! She used lots of new sets, You Autumn Know, Scripty Autumn Sentiments and Fall Leaves Background Stencils to create the feeling of Fall! She brought in the challenge theme with Thanks a Latte mugs filled with steaming coffee and cocoa!

Franci‘s pair of cards feature a charming mix of Love You a Latte and Snow Day bunnies along with Milk and Cookies! I love the diagonal stripes of the Let it Shine paper framing the collage panels!

Samantha‘s treats have a decidedly Halloween theme! Her fantastic scene features Fox Costumes Before ‘n Afters with images from Purrfectly Wicked, Purrfectly Wicked Add-On and treats from A Creature Was Stirring! The Bayou Backdrop in purple glitter cardstock creates lots of spooky vibes!

I love how Karin paired the Den Sweet Den bear with the cookie and jar from Milk and Cookies! The steaming hot beverage looks so cute in this sweet little scene!

What is better than enjoying a cup of hot chocolate on Christmas morning? These cute kids are happy and cozy on the sofa by the Joy to All Christmas tree! Joyce included the family cat in the fun in this happy scene!

Samantha‘s shaker card is so clever! She used Outside In Stitched Mug and Stitched Mug Frame and filled the shaker with cocoa-color sequins and snowflakes! The adorable little marshmallows add to the fun! The cool peppermint stripe background was created using Simple Stripes: Diagonal!

Caly‘s cheery design features Thanks a Latte mugs in a Reverse Stitched Scalloped Circle Window! The Let it Shine Snowflakes papers add to the frosty fun of this gorgeous card!

Jenn is sending sweet encourage-mint with our new How You Bean? Mint Add-On and a Lovely Latte paper-pieced mug! I love the pretty minty green and brown color combo that she carried out with Cracked Pistachio Oxide ink and Chocolate Bar cardstock! The Quilted Backdrop lets a little more minty green peek through while the Stitched Woodgrain Backdrop grounds the vignette!

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 110 – Spectacular Skies tomorrow! Now it’s time for you to get creative!

Hello Fall with Jessica

It’s the last weekend for this challenge so be sure to link up your Spectacular Skies projects HERE. This challenge will close Sunday, October 17th at 11:59PM ET.

Good morning!  Jess here with a card for our current inspiration photo challenge!

To start I wanted to create that gorgeous sky that’s in the inspiration photo so I blended shaded lilac, blueprint sketch, prize ribbon, and chipped sapphire distress oxide inks onto a panel of white cardstock.  Then I stamped the adorable mice and leaves from You Autumn Know and colored them with Copic markers.  I also stamped a sentiment from Scripty Autumn Sentiments and die-cut everything with the coordinating dies.

I also die-cut the Fall Leaves Backdrop and cut out two sides of the die to mimic the look of the inspiration photo.  I colored them with the same Copic markers and then adhered them to my blue sky.  I adhered a stitched frame of black cardstock and then added the rest of my colored images to complete the scene!

And that’s it!  You have one more weekend to get crafty and I can’t wait to see how the challenge photos inspires you!  Thanks so much for stopping by and have an amazing weekend!
-Jess

Thanks so much Jess! This is truly a Spectacular Sky!
