Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Spring Fling Challenge! When I think of Spring, the first things that come to mind are bunnies and flowers, so I knew that had to be the focus of today’s card. The adorable, new Carrot ‘Bout You stamp set worked perfectly as the star, and I also brought in a speech bubble from All the Speech Bubbles and two tiny butterflies from Butterfly Kisses. I stamped the images in Jet Black Ink, colored them with my Copic markers, and trimmed them out with their matching dies.


Next, I cut the inner part of the Secret Garden Window from white cardstock and colored it in the same shades of Copics as I had used on my images. I took a piece of the pastel rainbow striped patterned paper from the Rainbow Ever After 6×6 pad and trimmed it down with the largest Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables, then cut out the center with the other part of the Secret Garden Window. I glued these two pieces together.


Then I took another sheet of patterned paper with a gorgeous sunset ombre look and trimmed off the bottom, then cut that out with the grass from the Mushroom Border. I popped that up with foam tape over the part I was using for my sky, then popped the frame over top as well. I glued this whole panel to the front of a Sticky Note card base.


I adhered my images with a mix of liquid glue and foam tape and stamped the rest of my sentiment on Moonstone Cardstock with Forget-me-not Ink. I trimmed that down with an Everyday Sentiment Banner and glued that at the bottom of the window and finished with a bit of Stardust Stickles.

If you’d like to see how this card came together, you can check out the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty! And I’ll have another video using these sets on the Lawn Fawn YouTube channel tomorrow, so stay tuned for that. We hope you’re enjoying our Spring Fling challenge. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thank you so much for this sweet inspiration, Christy! This card is absolutely beautiful!

Design Team Inspiration


Samantha created the sweetest wedding card featuring the cute mice from Christmas Before ‘n Afters! She decked them out in a veil and top hat from Bicycle Built for You, then placed them in an arch created with Secret Garden Window! She used pretty shades of purple paper from Watercolor Wishes Rainbow, Watercolor Wishes and Stripes ‘n Sprinkles. And she used Celebrate Border as her greeting.


Mimi has the perfect card for welcoming a sweet fur baby! She used the Secret Garden Window arch as a stencil to add Distress Mica color to the background. Then she altered the picnic basket from Crazy Antics to make a sweet basket for the little puppy from Simply Celebrate Critters. She also used a dog from Furry and Bright along with images from Little Bundle and Yappy Birthday.


Christy‘s colorful creation is perfect for celebrating winter birthdays or sending kudos for a job well done! Her snowy scene combines Penguin Party, Snow Cool, Beary Happy Holidays, Snowball Fight, Simply Celebrate Winter Critters and Simply Celebrate Winter Critters Add-On.


Our Elephant Parade set is so perfect for making baby cards! And I love how Karin stacked the two elephants in her sweet shaker scene! She also used Birch Trees, Heart Garland Backdrop: Portrait and Henry’s ABCs.


Joyce‘s cute card is perfect for weddings, anniversaries and engagements! She used little mouse critters from Simply Celebrate Critters and Christmas Before ‘n Afters. She added a Little Heart Strings Border and a sentiment from Peacock Before ‘n Afters.


Franci is ready with gift tags when there are new arrivals! I love that she used the sweet stork image from our first baby set, Plus One! She arranged the storks on Stitched Circle Tags with some puffy clouds from the Butterfly Kisses coordinating Lawn Cuts die set.


2024 is the Year of the Dragon so Catherine used our adorable Winter Dragon and Little Dragon to create a celebration card! For the background she combined Secret Garden Window and Fancy Lattice Backdrop. She created a “scroll” with a Stitched Rectangle and the rolling pin coordinating die from Baked with Love. For the firecrackers she used the tin cans from Bicycle Built for You and Fireworks Hot Foil Plates. And her greeting is from Offset Sayings: Christmas.

We will have more Design Team inspiration right here over the next 2 weeks and be sure to come back tomorrow when we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 163 – Happy New Year Inspiration Board!
