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!

Supply list:
- Lawn Fawn stamps: Critters Ever After, Grand Greetings and Interlocking Backdrops.
- Hero Arts stamps: Cling Dots
- Echo Park paper: Little Girl
- Baker's twine
- May Arts ribbon
- Copics
- Washi tape

Wish Big - OWH card

Hi there!
I can smell the excitement in the air!! A new Lawn Fawn inspiration week has started and there are seven new amazing sets that will be released on May 31st!! Don't miss the Big Giveaway post on Lawn Fawn's blog to see some sneaky hints of the new sets and participate on the giveaways!

Tomorrow we will be featuring one of the new sets but today Lawn Fawn is participating on an Operation Write Home blog hop so I made a card for the hop and I've used one of the new stamps on it, yep!! That cool moustache!! Isn't it totally awesome? To see the full set you'll have to wait a few days... :P


I stamped the chevron stamp on a light blue cardstock and colored them with a copic to create a patterned paper, then I used it on the rosette and the little star.
Another useful thing I came up with is that you can color the alpha stickers to match your card, I colored  the coral ones with a dark pink copic to match my patterned paper :) I hope you like it!
