Operation Write Home - Cards for kids

Hi friends!

This week Lawn Fawn is teaming up with Operation Write Home to make cards for children. Operation Write Home is an organization that sends blank handmade cards to deployed service members so they can write home to their families. They need more cards dedicated to children, so go to your craft room and make some for this sweet purpose!

It has to be hard for a kid having a loved one so far so I made this card thinking about bringing a big smile to a little girl's face on her birthday and you know, Lawn Fawn has the perfect stamps for this!! :)

For the sentiment, I stamped it twice, the first one with orange ink and the second one with versamark ink, then I heat embossed it. I love how it looks!

Hop on over to the Lawn Fawn blog to see more cards from the DT members, and check out this post and join the fun, you can win some amazing stuff!

- Lawn Fawn stamps: Critters Ever After, Grand Greetings and Interlocking Backdrops.

Lawn Fawn May Inspiration Week - Dad's Day

Hi! :)
Lawn Fawn Inspiration Week continues today with a new set! This is a 4"x3" set dedicated to Dad's Day and it's perfect for all masculine cards!

When I saw this set I thought: Awww a bow and a tie, how cute for a couple!! So I needed to make this card as an example of using this set for different occasions than Father's Day :)

A closer look... :)

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn sets: "Dad's Day", "Teeny Tiny Backdrops", "Grand Greetings" and "Critters Ever After" (and another new set :P)

- Echo Park paper: "Soda Fountain"
- Hero Arts inks: "Splash", "Bubble Gum" and "Stone Wash"
- Googly eyes
- White embossing powder and Versamark ink

I also used the moustache included in this set on this card for Memorial Day's OWH blog hop.

Then, I wanted to make a little project to feature the set for Father's Day, so I made this super simple tag in the last moment, very easy to mass produce. To stamp the tie, I stamped first using the lighter color, then masked the little stripes and stamped again using the darker color.

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn sets: "Dad's Day"
- Memento ink: "Grape Jelly"
- Jenni Bowlin ink: "Lavender Sachet"

Lawn Fawn March Inspiration Week - Grand Greetings

The set that we're featuring today is "Grand Greetings" and I made two projects to show you how awesome is it!

As I've joined the DT in March, I didn't feature You've Got Mail so I tought that I could send some love using an old letter ;) I hope you like it!

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn stamps: "Grand Greetings", "You've Got Mail", "Making Frosty Friends" & "Love n' Breakfast"
- Versafine inks: "Satin Red" & "Deep Lagoon"
- Memento "Tuxedo Black" ink
- Distress inks: "Antique Linnen", "Festive Berries" & "Worn Lipstick"
- Copics

Then I realized that the curly border included in the set would be a nice wave border so I made this tag :)

Did you see the videos where Chari and Kelly Marie show how to dye the natural hemp cord from lawn trimmings? I wanted to give it a try and I used "Worn Lipstick" to dye mine and it matches perfectly with Lawn Fawn "Bright Side" papers! I LOVE it!
A little tip: after rubbing the twine over the pad, wet it a little to help blending the color (if you want it smooth!)
