Fawny Holiday Week 2024

hi there!
today I'm joining in on the festive fun on the Lawn Fawn blog with the Fawny Holiday week!

I'm sharing a fun, winter-y themed card for the holidays, and bonus! there's a video! be sure to check it out on the Lawn Fawn blog, or on my youtube channel, here!

I stamped and colored the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then did lots of watercoloring! I stuck to a small color palette this time (no rainbows!), focusing on reds and greens, and browns and greys.
I used Winter Birds and Flappy Holiday stamp sets. once all of the images were colored, I added some details with a white gel pen, and then die cut them out with their coordinating dies!

then it was time to make the platform! I used the Platform Pop-up and Platform Pop-up Cloud Inserts dies to create this wintery tree scene! I cut it all out of white cardstock and then went to town ink blending! I used Mowed Lawn, Twisted Citron and Pine Needles for the leafy tree tops and then Vintage Photo and Fossilized Amber for the tree base itself.

before assembling the platform, I used the Woodgrain Backdrops stamp set to add the wood texture to the tree base! so FUN! then I splattered the wood with white acrylic ink and used some white gesso and a dry brush to add the snow capped canopy look! I really hope that came across!

I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto Black Licorice Cardstock and then used the Stitched Sentiment Banner die set to die cut out the large one, and just trimmed the smaller sentiment in a strip.

I love that this card can be folded flat for a standard sized envelope but still makes such a big impact when you pop it up!

be sure to check this fun card up on the Lawn Fawn blog as part of their Fawny Holiday week! so fun!
and check out the video too!
enjoy!
