Our sweet friend, Vera, is once again collecting cards for the Caring Hearts Card Drive! These cards are distributed to seniors living in nursing homes at Christmas time. Vera noted that the number of cards received so far this year is below past years so she has extended the deadline. Would you make a card or two for this thoughtful cause? To get all the details, please visit Vera’s blog, click HERE. Thank you so much!

Our Fawnie, Jess, joins us today with some versatile and fun birthday card ideas!
Jess using our Woodgrain cardstock in the charcoal color as the card base! It looks so amazing with how she colored the bunny and gives the card a bit of a masculine look that makes it great for celebrating the guys in your life!
Jess stamped her image with River Rock ink! She then used Copic markers for coloring with a soft look!
This birthday card is so striking with its accents of gold and black stripes! Jess started with Gold Rush cardstock die cut with a Stitched Rectangle Stackables die. Then she added diagonal stripes of Black Licorice cardstock for a bold graphic design! She die cut the Scripty Happy die then made it special with a few coats of Gold Embossing Powder!
Thank you so much, Jess! We all need new ideas for making eye-catching birthday cards and your inspiration today is just perfect!
Happy Monday Lawn Fawn friends! Today we are participating in a fun To Bee or Not to Bee blog hop to celebrate World Bee Day and to raise awareness of the importance of bees!
Elena has created the most delightful Happy Bee Day party decor! Be sure to make it all the way to the end of the post, there are giveaway prizes to be won and lots of wonderfully talented crafters to visit on this blog hop! For more information about bees, World Bee Day and the blog hop please visit Milka’s blog, click HERE.
She patterned the cake topper on a letter board design! She used a scoring board to score the lines every half inch on a standard card size panel of Sticky Note cardstock. Then she framed it with a white Stitched Rectangle Frame and added Cole’s ABCs letters! I love how she attached some happy bees with acetate to look like they are buzzing around the cake! So adorable!
The party favors are Tiny Gift Boxes with some special bee details! Strips of black cardstock were added to the yellow boxes. The faces are from Tiny Gift Box Deer Add-On (Elena carefully trimmed off the deer ears),
For the sweet little wings, Elena started with the small butterfly from Layered Butterflies die cut from vellum. Then she trimmed them with scissors into the shape of wings. She also added little bee stingers using the whipped cream die from Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-on die set; such a clever idea!
Here are the components of the party favor boxes! They are listed in the supply list at the end of today’s post.
To decorate the drink bottles, Elena wrapped the bottles in black cardstock. She die cut a Stitched Circle and colored the edge with a yellow Copic marker and stamped the sentiment which is a mix of “happy” and “day” from Tiny Tag Sayings: Birthday and “bee” from Bugs and Kisses! The happy little bee is also from Bugs and Kisses while the bee trail is from Toadally Awesome.
Thank you so much, Elena for creating this amazing party for World Bee Day!
