Our big giveaway post!!

AND today’s post too! 🙂

Today is our showcase of “Critters Ever After“. This 4″ x 6” set is the next installment of our Critters series! The design team has made the most amazing samples! We also have a little video on the bottom showcasing some fun ways of using the set!

Remember to click on the person’s name or card to see all of the details and leave these wonderful DT girls some comment love! 🙂

Lea‘s card is paper piecing, Lisa Frank (remember that? 🙂 ) heaven! A girl after my own heart! I just adore her paper piecing and sweet scene. The 6×6 Bright Side petite paper pack is perfect for this. These magical critters look seriously cute paper pieced and glittered!

Yainea‘s shaker card is so cool! It is a magical snow globe of glitter, and it makes me happy! Her sentiment was made using Bannerific and Claire’s ABCs, and the star strip she created using the small stars in this set is so cool! Her coloring is just wow!

Julie‘s boy griffin card is just perfect! I love that with the right paper and embellishments this set can be totally boy, too! The griffin is just perfect for this more masculine type card, and the stamped chevrons from Chevron Backdrops add the perfect amount of boyish grunge!

Melissa S.‘s Project Life journaling cards are so cool. I absolutely love this cool watercolor splash texture with the different images of Critters Ever After showing through. This is such a great idea to pre-make journaling cards like this so that you are ready to go when the mood strikes!

Lynnette‘s card makes me smile big time. First her coloring is stunning, and then that custom sentiment using Claire’s ABCs is just perfect! Add some Bright Side papers, and this card is just spectacular!

Latisha‘s unicorn card has the best layout! I can’t wait to use this one. it would be perfect for so many different images! I just love the way she colored the unicorn My Little Pony style. Just perfect! The little stars from the set frame the unicorn perfectly!

Teri‘s scene is so sweet! I love love the Critters Ever After frog on the Critters in the Forest log! I also adore her paper piecing with colored textured card stock, and her custom sentiment by adding some Claire’s ABCs to the sentiment! The magic want is the perfect touch to the scene!

Chari‘s birthday card is just perfect! I absolutely adore the dragon blowing out the candle! Haha! The critter hats are the castle towers! Isn’t that brilliant? I also think the griffin looks quite dapper with his crown. The cupcake is from Bake Me a Cake and the stars from Critters Ever After look great as a border!

Make sure you click on each of the design team’s names or pictures to go to their blogs and see the details of how they made their cards. You will walk away inspired for sure!

Now, I have a little video for you showing this set in action and some fun things you can do with it. I hope you enjoy it! Watch it below or at our You Tube channel. (It’s a long one! I like talking too much :). If you don’t have time to watch, the “review” of everything starts at the 10:30 minute mark! 🙂 )

Lawn Fawn March Inspiration Week Big Giveaway Post!

Happy March, everybody! Let’s celebrate with Lawn Fawn’s March inspiration week! We will be showcasing Critters Ever After, Flying By, Grand Greetings and some fun Bright Side layouts! This is our big giveaway post too! Make sure to make it all of the way to the bottom for TWO chances to win ALL THREE of March’s sets and some Bright Side!

Now it’s time for some hellos! That’s right! We have a two new fawny girls to welcome to the design team! They are just amazing and we are just beyond thrilled to have them on our team! You guys are going to love them and their cards and layouts! Let’s meet them!

My name is Melissa Stinson, and I live in Huntsville, Alabama with my husband, Darren, and our small array of cats, dogs, and reptiles. I’ve been scrapbooking over 13 years- ever since I graduated from high school! This hobby has stuck with me through college (I graduated with a degree in Computer Science), getting married, and the last ten years that I’ve worked as a software engineer. I think it’s safe to say that it’s here to stay!!

Aside from scrapbooking, I have tons of hobbies that take up plenty of my time. I’m an avid photographer who’ll jump at almost any opportunity to take photos (for example, I know nothing about football, yet I love it when I get a chance to shoot a game from the sidelines). I’m also more than slightly addicted to my Body Pump and RPM (cycling) classes (I’m something of a grouch if I don’t get to go), I love to run, and I also hold a second degree black belt in Taekwondo. I’m also a HUGE sci-fi geek. Give me a Star Wars novel or a good episode of Doctor Who, and I’m a happy girl!!

Hello! My name is Cristina but I use Yainea as a nickname all the time. I live in a small city in the northwest of Spain. As a Computer Engineer I love all computer related stuff, even playing video games. In the complete opposite of that I love making all kind of things with my own hands: baking, sewing, painting and of course, crafting! Also, I love animals (I have two dogs and a cat), going to the movies and reading 🙂

I’m really excited about becoming a member of the amazing Lawn Fawn design team! I love Lawn Fawn stamps, they are super cute and unique! Here in Spain cardmaking and scrapbooking are not very popular yet so when, some time ago, I saw “Winter Bunny” for the first time, I didn’t know anything about stamping. That little guy is the one guilty of that I’m here today! Well… He’s so cute! I hope you find inspiration in my incoming Lawn Fawn projects so we could have fun together! Thank you 🙂

Make sure to welcome Melissa and Yainea to the fawny family! We are just so excited to have them with us!
