Lawnscaping Challenge 94: Count Me In! (and an announcement!)

5 Comments
Hi, everybody! I’m stopping in today to share my card for the current Lawnscaping challenge! The theme for this one is “Count Me In“, which means to include numbers somewhere on your project.
I picked some of Lawn Fawn’s “Sweater Weather” paper for my card, and chose to make it a school-themed thank you:
To work in the number theme, I made some faux washi tape with numbers from the “Harold’s ABCs” stamp set. I mirror-stamped the apple from the “My Silly Valentine” set, and used stamps from the “So Much To Say” set for the sentiment and the star accent.
For all of the details on this challenge, stop by the Lawnscaping Challenge blog! 
And, now for my announcement: I’ll be joining the Lawnscaping Challenge Design Team on December 1! I’m over-the-moon excited about being part of this team, and being able to share my creations featuring Lawn Fawn stamps, papers and embellishments!

I’ll have a new card for each challenge (which start on the 1st and 3rd Monday of the month), and will be posting a project on the Lawnscaping blog on the 2nd Monday of each month. I’d love it if you stopped by to say hello or to link up your card for each challenge!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! We’re still doing our best to keep warm here…hope the weather’s not too bad where you are!

Farm Fresh Friday: Thank You!

Hi crafty friends! There’s a new “Farm Fresh Friday” challenge up today at The Greeting Farm blog, and I’ve got a new card to share with you!

Since today is International Thank You Day, we’re celebrating with cards that say, well, “thank you”!

My card for this week features my new favorite Wild Sprout, “Gracie.”

I chose the sentiment from TGF’s “Lucky Bunnies” clear stamp set. I think it’s a great all-around sentiment for someone who’s dear to you or to say thank you to someone who’s gone the extra mile to do something special for you! 

To further customize the card, you could stamp “thank you” on the inside when you write your personal message!


Are you ready to play along with us? 

Here are the details:

  • You must use a TGF stamp (rubber, digi, or clear) as your main image. 
  • Entries must be uploaded via InLinkz on the TGF blog no later than Thursday, January 17 at NOON CST. You can add a direct link to your entry from your personal blog, SCS gallery, Flickr or TGF galleria. (If the InLinkz tool is missing, feel free to link your submission URL in a comment.)
  • The fabulous prize: A random participant will be selected to win their choice of an in-stock SINGLE RUBBER STAMP OR a 4×6 set!
You can stop by the TGF blog to check out what the Showcase Team has created to inspire you, or visit their personal blogs: Anita, Annie Rose, Jo, Jodi, Joni, Rachel and Rosemary!

CPS #225

Thanks for stopping by to look at my card for this week’s Card Positioning Systems challenge (#225), which is sponsored by Simply Betty Stamps!

Here’s the sketch for this week:

and here’s my card! I picked up this cute set on Tuesday — it’s by Your Next Stamp. I’ve had my eye on this set for a while, and finally decided to get it! I have several French-related sets, but none with a little boy or dog! They were too cute to pass up!

Other supplies: background paper (Memory Box – Brioche collection, red squares are scraps from Graphic45), fleur de lis brad & mini brads, sentiment sticker (SRM Stickers), Copic markers, ink (Tsukineko Brilliance in Graphite Black), cardstock.
Thanks again for stopping by! The CPS blog has many great samples for this challenge from its design team and the other entries! Check them out!
