If you visit this blog regularly you know how I just adore Lawn Fawn. I've had this set since it was introduced {last winter} but hadn't made anything with it until recently. And I went a bit overboard; once I got started, I couldn't stop and ended up making three cards! Instead of doing a separate post for each card, I decided to do just one. So here is a picture of all 3 cards together:
Now in order to tell the cards apart, the first one is Landscape, the second is Portrait, and the third is Three Fairies. I wanted to let you get a better look at each card.
What I Used to Make my Cards:
Each of the three cards uses the following:
White Card Base
Lawn Fawn Frosty Fairy Friends stamps, #LF1224
Lawn Fawn Frosty Fairy Friends dies, #LF1225
Watercolor Paper {I use this}
For the second card, Portrait, I used the following products:
White Scrap {for embossing folder}
Darice Scroll Background Embossing Folder, #1216-62
Distress Ink in Broken China
For this little fairy, first I stamped the snowflakes and wand swirls in Broken China and stamped the sentiment in Jet Black ink, then I dry embossed the background. I attached the background paper to the white card base and finished the card by using dimensional dots to adhere the fairy.
Finally for the third card, Three Fairies, it was time to have some fairies hanging out together outside their home. I picture them practicing flying and getting those wand swirls perfect.
For this last card I used these additional products to make my card:
Scrap White Card {for banner}
Spellbinders Shapeabilities Vintage Pierced Banners, #S4-820
Distress Ink in Broken China
Light Blue Cardstock
Darice Embossing Folder Snowflake Trim, #1219-135
Stickles Glitter Glue in Crystal
Step one in constructing this card was running the light blue card through my Big Shot to dry emboss the paper. I glued the background paper to the white card base and made the banner out of scrap. The sentiment was stamped onto the banner after it was cut, and then it was assembled.
The fairy house was water colored like the fairies and I added a bit of glitter glue to the roof and the tip of the front door. I was trying to give the illusion of snow, but since I used a clear glitter glue you can't really see it, even in person. So we will just say it's ice; works for me! The fairy that carries a muff is now holding a star leftover from the first card and another star has been added to the top window of the house.
I hope you enjoyed my cards; these fairies are adorable. ~Christi

Watercolor Paper {I use this}
Ranger Archival Ink in
Jet Black
Wink of Stella in Clear {all of their wings sparkle}
Dimensional Dots
Gelly Roll Gel Pens, Stardust Pack
For the first card, Landscape, I also used the following:
The Landscape Card |
Distress Ink in Broken China
Petal Point Pad, Alchemy, the Silver Ink
Lawn Fawn Starry Skies die, #LF1377
Silver Glitter Paper
The first thing I did when making this card {after the fairies were all stamped, colored, and cut} was stamp the sentiment onto the card base using Broken China ink. I cut some stars out of silver glitter paper and glued them in various places around the card and stamped the wand swirls in silver ink.
I used dimensional dots to attach this fairy to the card, placing her appropriately so that the wand swirls and stars were in the correct areas.
The Portrait Card |
White Scrap {for embossing folder}
Darice Scroll Background Embossing Folder, #1216-62
Distress Ink in Broken China

ReplyDeleteHi Christi,
ReplyDeleteSnowflakes are winter butterflies. But your "snowflake butterflies" are little, charming fairies,
whirling through the snowflakes. Could you possibly send us some of your sweet snow fairies? We would be very happy about a few snowflakes from the sky.
Thanks for your participation in the Friendship Challenge. I wish you a lot of fun and I would be very happy, you will also be part of it in our next challenge.
Many greetings
