I thought I would show these cards today because I’ve heard that Card Creations: Favorite Occasions has a bunch of Lawn Fawn in it! I haven’t seen the magazine yet, but I can’t wait YAY! I can’t tell you how excited this makes me! Eeeeeks! So cool!! If you ever get published in print with Lawn Fawn, let us know when the magazine comes out so we can send you something! 🙂
The cards I am showing you today are cards that were the first published Lawn Fawn cards! Yay! This one above has a fun story! We we first started designing, we decided to try making a photopolymer stamp at home. (My biochemistry degree came in handy! Haha!) The stamp we made was of the dog from Critters in the ‘Burbs. I made this card right away and then months later decided to submit it, and it was accepted by CARDS for the May 2010 issue! I couldn’t believe the first Lawn Fawn card ever made was accepted! Thank you so much to CARDS for taking a leap of faith with us!
This card also appeared in the CARDS May 2010 issue. This one doesn’t have as fun of a story, but I was over the moon when I knew Lawn Fawn would be in a publication!
This last card was the first published card in a Paper Crafts publication, Card Creations 8. Thank you so much to Paper Crafts for taking a leap of faith with us, too! This has a funny story in that it has Petite Florals’s original name in the supplies list, “Petite Petals”. A printing error in final production of Petite Florals gave the set a new name that we’ve come to love! 🙂
Thanks for following my trip down memory lane! 🙂
I loved this little trip down memory lane. Congratulations on everything you've accomplished thus far, Kelly Marie. You have a lot to show for yourself! 🙂 Keep doing what you do best.
That's so awesome! Congrats on your dreams coming true. It must be a great feeling! Your stamps are so cute, it's no wonder they're showing up in publications everywhere.
It makes me smile everytime I see Lawn Fawn in a magazine. And I'm happy to say that I've had some cards published that showcase Lawn Fawn stamps 🙂
i love those stories – and i'm so excited for you and your company! 🙂 hats off! (no pun intended!)
Thank you for sharing the cards and the stories! I am so happy for you :o)
Okay, hold up just a sec, are you telling me that you made the Lawn Fawn pup stamp IN YOUR HOME?!?! That's too funny! No wonder I've always thought you guys were amazing. You truly are. And the Lawn Fawn Pup (I call him Putter, lol) has always been and still is my favorite Critter of all.
I also LOVE when I see Lawn Fawn in a Card Magazine. It's like spotting your favorite celebrity in People. You can't help but smile. :o)
Congratulations! So fun to see your designs in print! 🙂
So fun to see the original Lawn Fawn designs that were published. Congrats!
