Jessica from Lawn Fawn HQ is back to share two special projects featuring Summer 2023 sets! She created a set of fruity bookmarks and a fun hot-foiled “shell-ebrate” card! Check out the Intro to Confetti Background Hot Foil video below!

It’s not too late to craft up a batch of fun and fruity bookmarks for back-to-school! These punny sayings will keep your favorite kids smiling all the way to the end of the book! Jess combined Fruit Tiny Tags with Fruit Salad 6×6 paper. Then she added sentiments to match from You’re the Zest, Berry Special, Aloha (sunglasses too) and Simply Summer Sentiments.

To give the fruit pretty detail, Jess cut the pieces using Shimmer Cardstock from the Tropical pack! And she added shading to the papers with Distress Oxide ink in Fossilized Amber, Worn Lipstick and Festive Berries.

Jess created a beautiful beachy design with How You Bean Seashell Add-On, Stitched Wave Borders and Spring Showers. She used Speech Bubbles to stamp the sentiments from the seashell set. I love how she used Watercolor Wishes Rainbow paper to add pretty color to the waves!

So many fun ideas with the Confetti Background Hot Foil Plate! Jess created the pretty backdrop by foiling a panel of Watercolor Wishes Rainbow paper. Then she foiled white cardstock with rainbow foil before die-cutting Giant Make a Wish! So much sparkle!

Thank you so much for much for inspiring us with your creativity, Jessica!

Simply Celebrate More Critters Inspiration with our Guest Designer Jennifer Ax

It’s the last day to get our Simply Celebrate Pets free gift with purchase! This set includes an adorable border of the cutest pets with matching sentiments for punny fun! It’s our Free Gift with orders over $60 exclusively at lawnfawn.com and only until 11:59PM PT TONIGHT.

We have some amazing inspiration from our Guest Designer, Jennifer Ax! You may know her on Instagram as jennifer_project_cupcake. You can also find her on YouTube. She has been inspiring us with her delightfully innovative designs and we are so happy she is joining us today! Her cards today feature Simply Celebrate More Critters and the punny sentiments from Simply Celebrate More Critters Add-On.

Jennifer shares a bit about herself and her crafting journey:
My name is Jennifer, I have a PhD in chemistry and work as a consultant. I live with my partner in the southwestern tip of Germany, sandwiched between France and Luxembourg. We love to travel, especially to Japan or the USA.
At home, my passion is paper crafting. I started a long time ago, armed with a pen, scissors and a glue stick. Then, little by little, I worked my way up to a die cutting machine and bought my first branded stamps. Among them was my first Lawn Fawn set, Critters in the Forest. This set was the cornerstone of an ever-growing collection until I finally bought and used LF products exclusively. The individual sets coordinate and combine so well! There are lots of add-ons for older sets that keep them alive, and the interactive dies are just amazing.
I love pink, cute images and playful designs. I like to create interactive cards or scenes with the cute little critters. As you can imagine, being a guest designer is a little dream come true and I hope my creations will inspire you or at least bring a smile to your face.

Jennifer’s Simply Celebrate More Critters Cards

There’s so much tropical beauty in this Simply Celebrate More Critters card! Jennifer created a border of Tropical Leaves and the cute jungle critters! She also stenciled the Tropical Leaves in the background with Fairy Dust Stencil Paste for more subtle detail. How cute is the little sloth on the end, sleeping through the happy birthday greetings!

On the inside of this unique pop-up frame card, Jennifer created the treetop where the sleeping sloth is now wide awake and ready to send a birthday greeting! So cute! She used Hang in There for the sloth and also Tropical Vine Borders, Puffy Cloud Borders and Tree House to make the lush foliage! For more details about this clever card, check out Jennifer’s post HERE.

For the cute insect critters, Jennifer cut them apart to place them in the panes of the Window Frame die. They are sending get-well wishes to the fox from On the Beach. The cozy living room scene features Window Scene: Winter, Den Sweet Den and the Baked with Love cake stand as a side table. I love how she used tulle to create the shaker window that is open through the back of the card!

The woodland critters look so much at home in Jennifer’s forest design! She used Birch Trees in the background then she cleverly included one of the tree trunks from Lift the Flap Tree Backdrop as a fallen tree where the critters are hanging out. The birthday greeting looks beautiful gold embossed on the Grassy Border!

I love the clever circle shape of Jennifer’s farm scene! It looks like the critters are cheering on their friends from Hay There and You Goat This in a barnyard competition! She placed the Simply Celebrate More Critters behind the Hay There fence so they are front and center for the event! This is such a fun way to send encouragement and congrats!

Build-An-Aquarium is the perfect choice for the fishy critters in the Simply Celebrate More Critters set. I love how Jennifer snipped the cute little clam from the border to add to the bottom of the aquarium with friends from Ocean Shell-fie and You Are Sublime.

The jungle critters look so adorable in this design combining Tropical Leaves Backdrop and Giant Hooray!

Thank you so much, Jennifer for sharing your creative card designs with us! We have enjoyed having you as our Guest Designer and sharing your amazing cards!

Mayra’s Sweet Watermelon Cards & Tags

You can now find our Summer 2023 products at www.lawnfawn.com and your favorite stores! Woohoo!

Be sure to check out this fun Simply Celebrate Pets stamp set! This set includes an adorable border of the cutest pets with matching sentiments for punny fun! It’s our Free Gift with orders over $60 exclusively at lawnfawn.com and for a limited time, while supplies last.

Mayra joins us today with the sweetest inspiration! She created two watermelon themed cards and super cute tags featuring Simply Celebrate More Critters, Fruit Tiny Tags and Tiny Tag Sayings: Fruit. And she also made a watermelon popsicle tag using I Scream, You Scream! It has a cute Crazy Antics ant and a message from Say What? Pets!

The cute critters of A Bug Deal play so nicely with the Simply Celebrate More Critters bugs! To create the watermelon slice, Mayra used Stitched Oval Stackables, cutting a larger one from green cardstock and a smaller one from red. She added the watermelon seeds using raindrops from Rainy Backdrop, so clever!

Then she layered a red Scalloped Rectangle behind a Fruit Salad panel, creating a charming frame for her scene.

For this cute design, Mayra started with a Stitched Rectangle panel. Then she added the red and green for the watermelon and blue for the sky! The Simply Celebrate More Critters bugs make another appearance here to send sweet, sweet birthday wishes! I love how she used the speech bubbles from Simply Celebrate More Critters with the sentiment from A Bug Deal. I wonder what cuteness she has hidden behind the flap.
