Jenn’s Beautiful Ombré Scalloped Card!

- Nancy Krueger 2 Comments

Jenn has some gorgeous Fun with Dies inspiration for you! Her card uses only dies and is absolutely stunning!

Jenn die cut a bunch of Rooftop Border scallops to layer on her card! It looks like a very colorful mermaid tail! She alternated blending Distress Ink and Distress Oxide Ink in the same color to get that amazing ombré look!

Jenn finished her card with a Stitched Heart Stackable cut from Pixie Dust Sparkle cardstock and Scripty Smile with multiple layers of Storm Cloud cardstock on top!

Thank you Jenn for sharing this gorgeous card design with us today!

This is the last weekend for the Fun with Dies challenge! It will be open until Sunday, December 1 at 11:59PM ET. We hope you join us!

We will be back on Monday, December 2nd with a brand new challenge theme, see you then!

Lots of Love Framed Valentine

- Nancy Krueger 3 Comments

Hi Fawnatics Friends, today it’s my turn to share some inspiration for our Lot’s of Love challenge! I decided to make a “valentine” with a positive message to decorate the top of my dresser!

I started by trimming my Gotta Have Gingham paper to fit the 5×5 frame. Then I die cut all the pieces: 3 Scripty Love from white cardstock, a Stitched Heart Stackable from Raspberry cardstock, and the stem and flower pot from Little Flowers from Cilantro and Narwhal cardstock. After laying out the design to see how it would all fit, I stamped the Harold’s ABCs phrases with Manatee ink. To finish I used Lawn Fawn Glue Tube to attach the die cuts!

I love how it looks sitting on the stack of books!

Our Lots of Love challenge will be open until Sunday, February 3 at 11:59PM ET. Check out the gallery, there are some amazing entries!

Happy Crafting from your friends at Lawn Fawnatics!
