Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #81: Summertime Fun

20 Jul

Good morning!  It’s time for a new Lawn Fawnatics challenge and it’s sure to produce some fantastic cards! I can’t wait to see all the gorgeous summery cards you will create!! 🙂

And here’s what I created!

Fish You Were Here by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Lawn Fawnatics

So I imagined that I wasn’t staying at home this summer but instead was swimming in crystal clear turquoise water near an island somewhere with mermaids and fish! 😉 And of course I’d want to document the vacay and share it with a friend!

I started by stenciling several pieces of cardstock with the Ocean Waves stencil using distress oxide inks in tumbled glass, peacock feathers, mermaid lagoon, and blueprint sketch.  I trimmed one down to an A2 panel for my card front.  Then I die-cut another panel using the Pivot Pop-Up dies and trimmed three more down to fit the polaroid in the Magic Iris Camera Add-On set!

Next I stamped a bunch of images from Mermaid for You and Ocean Shell-fie and colored them with copics before die-cutting them with the coordinating dies.  I also stamped the sentiments using Milo’s ABCs, Wavy Sayings, and Oliver’s Stitched ABCs.  I used apricot cardstock for the stitched alpha sentiment.  Then I created my three polaroid scenes and adhered them together.

Next I die-cut the Magic Iris Camera Add-On using white, storm cloud, and apricot cardstock.  I added a few touches with copic markers and then adhered the camera together, adding the interactive polaroid for a fun touch!

Finally I built the Pivot Pop-Up using my custom sentiment and stenciled panels and added the two polaroids!  I finished the card by adding accents with a white gel pen and nuvo crystal glaze.

And now it’s your turn!  I can’t wait to see what you create!!  You can link up your entries on the Lawn Fawnatics blog!

Thanks so much for visiting and have a fantastic day!
