Lawn Fawn 5th Birthday Blog Hop

 

GetAttachment

 

Hello there – you should’ve arrived here from my lovely friend Lol’s blog (Lorraine’s Loft).  If not and you’d like to hop back to the start then pop over to Jenn’s and go from there.  I am so happy to be joining in with this fabulous blog hop celebrating 5 wonderful years of Lawn Fawn.   I pulled out my all time favourite set for my card – Into The Woods.  I created my sentiment using Milo’s ABC’s, used patterned paper from Let’s Polka and also used the the speech bubble border die.

I wish Kelly and Mike a fabulous 5th birthday and hope for many more years of wonderful Lawn Fawn magic!

Please now pop along to the wonderful Sharna and have fun on the rest of the hop.

Avery Elle March Release Blog Hop

Hi there, I’m delighted to be sharing a card for the brand new release from Avery Elle.  This release literally has something for everyone and today I’m featuring a cute little set called Humble Pie.  I stamped three of the pies in black and coloured them with Copics before smothering them in glossy accents.  While they were drying I created a 4-bar card base in white and cut a panel of Lemon Grass card stock which I placed on the front of the card.  The yellow gingham paper is from the Everyday patterned paper pad and I’ve used a Dotted Border die to cut a scalloped border from some Daisy cardstock.  I hope you enjoy the rest of the hop and I can’t wait to see all of the creations with these amazing new products.

Avery Elle – Thank You Die

Hello – I’m popping today with a card I created using the gorgeous Thank You die from Avery Elle.  I absolutely adore the font style and size of this die – it makes the perfect focal point on a card.

Thank you

I used Avery Elle smooth white card for my card base and cut a strip of patterned paper from the Avery Elle Everyday paper pad.  I cut a narrower strip of co-ordinating paper from the same collection and adhered them onto the card front.  One of the flag shapes from the Dotted Elle-ments set was cut from vellum and adhered onto the layered paper strips.  The Thank You was cut from white cardstock and glued in place over the vellum which also helps hold it in place so no glue is visible.  I finished it all off with some twine and a few Doodlebug sprinkles in silver glitter.

Remeber to visit the Avery Elle design blog every day for lots of amazing creations from the rest of the team.  Also, a date for your diary … the CHA release will be available on 26th February.  Can’t wait to start sharing my designs with you!
