**this is my 2nd post of the day! to see my card for the current Inky Paws Challenge, scroll down or click here!**

yahooo! it's time for a NEW challenge on the block!!! and it's all about LAWN FAWN!!!!!

i'm still SO excited about this newest challenge on the block! and this time, it's SO FUN! we're all about INTERACTIVE cards! 

yay!!
these interactive cards are SO fun to make! i created a light up card with Chibitronics for graduation!

I used Distress Ink in Peacock Feathers and Tumbled Glass to create the background, then colored and fussy cut out the light bulb from the Turn Me On mini set! the graduation hat is from the Smart Cookie stamp set and the sentiment is from the My Lucky Charm set! 

i heat embossed the sentiment on a strip of black cardstock, and all of the images were colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

I stamped that CUUUUTE light switch to go right over the button to light up the card! SO FUN! 

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

this time, we're using a spring color palette!

i decided to go with an Easter card, since that's coming up in a week or so!

I used the CUUUUUTE bunny butt (ha!) from the Bunny Hop stamp set! I just LOOOOOVE this mini set! 

the background was created with the new Distress Oxide Inks and some ink blenders! then i splattered some water over the background! it's such a pretty combination of colors, it reminds me of a sunset! 
the bunny was colored with copics and fussy cut, then I used some clear sequins to ad a little shine!
