Thank you so much for watching!

Christy colored all the fun images from Critters in the Desert in soft desert hues. I love how she gave the critters whimsical pink cheeks! Then after using the coordinating dies to cut them out, she set them aside to create an amazing background.

First, she inked an L-shaped area with Distress Oxide ink in Antique Linen and Vintage Photo. Then she splattered the panel with water and those same inks. Finally, she also splattered a coppery gold paint to add lots of shiny sparkle! Once the background was dry, she assembled all the desert images in a fun collage mix.

Christy white-embossed the birthday greeting on Chocolate Bar cardstock, trimming each phrase before popping the strips on the card. Inside the card, she stamped another punny greeting and more cute images.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful inspiration with us, Christy! Your collage-style design is so cool!

Mimi’s Cute Interactive Gumball Machine Card

Mimi joins us today to inspire us with her adorable Build-A-Gumball Machine card! It’s a double interactive card featuring a shaker and Reveal Wheel, so fun!

Mimi cut the gumball machine base 3 times from 110 lb. white cardstock to build up layers for the shaker in the globe. She sandwiched an acetate piece between the 1st and second layer to create the shaker filled with gumballs. And then she colored the pieces of the machine with Distress Oxide ink in Kitsch Flamingo and cut the detail pieces from silver metallic cardstock.

For the Reveal Wheel she adjusted die cut to fit with the gumball dispenser. She colored the wheel piece with a gray marker before adding the gumballs. Then she assembled everything, using a Small Mini Slimline rectangle to ground the little scene and to stamp the sentiment from Sweet Smiles!

I love how Mimi stacked the cute Treat Cart critters so they can reach the coin slot! The coins are so cute in gold metallic cardstock!

This card is so much fun and so clever! Thank you for sharing with us today, Mimi!

Lawn Fawn Video {5.23.24} Joy’s Cute Treat Shop Card

Please join us June 7th, 2024 at 4:00PM PT / 7:00PM ET on YouTube Live!

Joy shows us how to create a cute treat shop card using Ta-Da! Diorama! Shop Add-On! She pairs the shop with Treat Cart to make a charming, sweet shop! You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching!

Joy started this charming design with a fun technique in the background. Using Brick Stencil, she pressed Clear Embossing Ink into the stencil on white cardstock. Then she removed the stencil and sprinkled Distress Embossing Glaze in Salvaged Patina over the top before heat setting. It produces a shiny and colorful effect.

She stamped then colored the Treat Cart images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. Next, she used the rectangle, awning, hanging flower basket and sign from Ta-Da! Diorama! Shop Add-On to create the store front for her treat shop. And then she stamped the greeting from Treat Cart Sentiment Add-On on a banner to hang above the Rainbow Ever After awning.
