Welcome to the Lawn Fawn April Inspiration Week!
Today the Lawn Fawn Design Team is showcasing the new Happy Happy Happy Add On Stamp Set and coordinating die and Mini Pop Up Butterflies Dies. I used both the partial die cut butterflies (pop up) with the full die cut butterflies on an ink smooshed background with a simple stamped sentiment for my card share. Simple and easy and would work for so many different occasions! Love that!
I die cut the Mini Pop Up Butterflies Dies from a piece of Bristol Smooth Cardstock creating butterflies from the top of the panel to the bottom. I made sure to leave room for a stamped greeting later on.
I applied Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Mermaid Lagoon, and Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide Inks to a easy clean mat, spritzed them liberally with water, picked up the ink with a piece of stamp packaging, and then "smooshed" it on the die cut background. I kept playing with this technique until I got the ink to look the way I wanted it to and then I sped up the drying process using a heat tool.
Greetings from the Happy Happy Happy Add On Stamp Set were stamped in the bottom right corner of the design with black ink.
Butterfly layers were die cut from vellum using the full die cut Mini Pop Up Butterflies Dies. The bodies of the butterflies were die cut from Black Glitter Cardstock. The vellum layer and butterfly body were glued to each pop up butterfly as shown.
The panel was adhered to a white top fold card base and finished with a scattering of Nuvo Crystal Drops in Simply White, Carnation Pink, Ripened Pumpkin, Dandelion Yellow, Green Apple, Caribbean Ocean, and Crushed Grape.
