Hi readers! Happy Saturday to you! I’m pleased to bring you this sweet card inspiration by Lawn Fawn’s own Chari Moss! Have you gotten a chance to peruse the new Summer Lawn Fawn collection? It was just released this past Wednesday, and my goodness, what a great collection! Chari is using a new stamp & die set in this sweet card but be sure to click here also to see the whole kit & caboodle!

Enjoy!

I have recently “rediscovered” my colored pencils by using gamsol to blend the colors.  I really love the soft look that I can get using pencils instead of markers, which is perfect for baby cards!  So naturally it is a perfect fit to color the images in Lawn Fawn’s new Hello Baby set with colored pencils.  For this card I colored the cute little frog prince with colored pencils blended with gamsol and used the coordinating Lawn Cuts dies to cut him out.  I stamped out the background scene on a white panel and popped up the frog with some foam adhesive.  I used a green Lawn Fawndamentals notecard as my base and added some Spearmint card stock along the bottom cut with the Stitched Scallop border die.  I finished it off with some lemon twine and two little tone on tone hearts along the bottom.

  6. Although I am not into toad/frog images, I do like seeing a baby card done in non-traditional colors.
