Lawn Fawn “Critters Down Under”

Hi Again Friends,
Yes, it’s true, two posts in one day, that is a rarity.  See my previous post here for Chari’s birthday blog hop.
Lawn Fawn Inspiration week wraps up today with Critters Down Under which is another fun set of critters to add to your collection. I made two cards (one of which is featured for Chari’s birthday), and this one:

There’s a story behind this card.  I was coloring and cutting out critters the other night when Carlin picked up an alligator and put it up to his polo shirt like it was an Izod.  It made me laugh. I told him I was going to make a card like that.  I am not sure he believed me, but here it is.  I think that it could be used for a male birthday card or even Father’s day.  It’s silly, but that’s us.
Thanks for stopping by.  Remember to sign up for your chance to win some new stuff at the Lawn Fawn Blog.

Lawn Fawn “Make Lemonade”

Hi Friends,

It’s back to work for us in the U.S., I sure enjoy those long weekends.  I was able to do some paper-crafting and that was so relaxing.

Being able to spend some time crafting was nice since it’s Lawn Fawn Inspiration week.  Today features “Make Lemonade” which is an adorable mini set that includes all the goodies to make that delicious summer beverage. Here’s what I came up with:

Of course, I broke out the Lawn Fawn Bright Side paper.  It’s so bright and just screams summer to me.  I think these lemonade images go quite well with it.

Thanks for stopping in today, and be sure to sign up for a chance to win at the Lawn Fawn blog.

Lawn Fawn “Dad’s Day”

Hi Friends

Lawn Fawn Inspiration week continues, and today we are featuring the new set “Dad’s Day”.  As you may have guessed, it has stamps that are perfect for making those Fathers’ Day cards (and other masculine cards).

Here is what I came up with:

and this one:

My cards show the chair and two sentiments, but the set also features a mustache, bow-tie, and tie.  It’s a great set to help make those cards for men!

Have a blessed day
