Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #54 - Perfect for Parties

happy Monday!
let's start this week off with a NEW challenge over at the Lawn Fawnatics Challenge blog!



yay!



how adorable is this challenge! I love how it's asking us to stretch our stamps and dies into something other than a card! gotta flex those creative muscles!! lol!


I decided to make some decorative straws in honor of my son 'graduating' 5th grade, and moving to middle school in the fall! *sniff sniff* 
so that was theme I was going with here! a little bit of 'the sky's the limit' 'you can do anything' theme! ha!

love how they came out!
I used a combination of the Stitched Cloud Frames and the Outside In Stitched Cloud Stackables dies to create the base! then I used my sewing machine to stitch the layers of papers and vellum together! LOOOOVE that dimension!

I combined the sentiment from one of my most used and loved stamp sets: Party Animal with the new Fancy Folded Banners Die Set!

and that cute paper airplane (perfect for a school-themed 'kind of' graduation feel, right?!) is from the adorable Plane and Simple stamp set!
I added the blue colors with watercolor-y Blueprint Sketch and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks! soooooo pretty!!!! love that color combination!

I really can't WAIT for you to play along! you could win a $25 gift certificate to Lawn Fawn!!!!
enjoy!
