I started by stamping the images from Chirpy Chirp Chirp and Carrot 'bout You. I colored them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I also added some details with a white gel pen, and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out.

for the background, I die cut out the layers from white cardstock using both the Grassy Border and Stitched Hillside Borders. then I added color to each one by ink blending with Distress Oxide Inks in Pine Needles, Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron.

I did some ink blending a pastel color palette. then, using a white piece of cardstock, I die cut out the bunny images. then I die cut that panel with the Frames & Flags die set.
I popped up the whole white panel with foam tape.

the card base was made with some super light beige cardstock. then I used that same cardstock to back the sentiment. the sentiment is the Happy Easter Die Set.

I love the idea of a pile of rainbow colored easter eggs! lol!
I die cut out the eggs all from white cardstock. then I used a plethora of rainbow colored Distress Inks to add colors.
once I added the fun white egg detailed borders and images, I added some glitter! the glitter made me reminisce of coloring eggs with my boys when they were little and added glitter packets to the cups of dye! lol

I die cut out a piece of light grey cardstock with the Basic Frames Die Set, and then placed that on top of a piece of whit cardstock. that white cardstock was then die cut with the Frames & Tags die set.
and all of that was placed on top of the patterned paper from the Happy Easter Paper Pack

I created a perfect spring day by die cutting out the scene with the Oval Frames Die Set! I die cut out the grass with the Land Borders Die Set, and then used Distress Inks in Pine Needles, Mowed Land and Twisted Citron. I used Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers for the sky.
then I used the Petite Clouds Stencil and white embossing paste to add some texture to the sky!

chirtpity-chirp-chirp!

hello and happy weekend!
today I have this JOY of a card up on the Lawn Fawn blog!
and bonus - there's a video to go along with it!
you can check it out here, or on my youtube page! :D

I combined some of the new products with some older products, which is always FUN and easy to do!

Easter Shadow Box Card by Samantha M for Lawn Fawn, Distress Inks, Easter, Lawn Fawn, Die Cutting, Interactive, Chicks, eggs, #lawnfawn #distressinks #inkblending #easter #eastercard #cardmaking #handmadecards #distressinks #eggs

I started by stamping the images from Chirpy Chirp Chirp and Spring Basket and then coloring them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I stuck a simple color palette of pinks, oranges and yellows. I also used some browns and a splash of light grey - but mostly the pinks, oranges and yellows!
I also added some details with a white gel pen.

then I die cut out the main panels with the Shadow Box Card die set from Mermaid Cardstock. I used the Easter Egg Background Stencils to ink blend on the insides. I used the teals and blues to keep a subtle tone-on-tone look! I used Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch.

on the outside, I used the same blues to add just a hint of ombre for the sky. and I stamped the line of grass along all of the bottom borders in Distress Oxide Mowed Lawn.
then I got to decorate along all of the panels! and that's the best part!

all of these new products are so fun!

this spring release is allllll about happy, fresh and breezy!

I stamped the images and then colored them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. once the imges were all dry, I added some details with a white gel pen and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out. except I didn't use this set in the traditional way! I thought it would be SO SWEET to pair those tulips with the fun Spring Garden Line Stencil! tulips on tulips on tulips!!

for the background, I ink blended the stencils with Distress Inks (Picked Raspberry and Dried Marigold for the tulip blooms and Pine Needles, Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron for the grass and stems and Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed for the sky).

I heat embossed the sentiment in white onto some white cardstock, and then used the same greens to ink blending the strip of cardstock and popped it up with foam tape! and I finished the card by splattering some green ink on the bottom of the card.

my next card uses the Easter Postage Samper set and the new Happy Easter dies!

again, the images were colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then die cut out. I popped them up against the vellum banner that was die cut with the Basic Frames dies. I also popped up the phrase with foam tape after die cutting the words from various shades of pink cardstock.
