Lawn Fawn and Imagine Crafts Week

Lawn Fawn and Imagine Crafts are teaming up for a week full of inky inspiration! Imagine Crafts was kind enough to send use gals some ink pads and we’re using the new Lawn Fawn stamps to create some fun projects. I created a card using: Radiant Neon in Electric Green, Memento Luxe in Northern pine, Memento Luxe in Love Letter, Delicata in Golden Glitz, and Delicata in Silvery Shimmer.

The Neon Electric Green ink pad is so awesome! I used it for the pine tree images when creating a border around my die cut panel. I love how this color looks and I feel like it’s a bright and fun color to use along with this “Merry and Bright” sentiment from the, Snow Day, stamp set. After stamping the border I took the memento luxe love letter ink and stamped the little berries and also stamped the trio of leaves using the memento luxe northern pine ink. In the image it looks like it’s black but in person it’s got this great dark green look to it—it’s great! I also stamped the Christmas tree in that ink as well. I used the awesome Delicata inks to add a little shimmer and glimmer—with the golden glitz and silvery shimmer pads, too.

Using these inks to create awesome cards is a great alternative to using Copic markers. Not only that but using a variety of ink pads to create cards is a great way to save time and still keep those pops of color on each card. This card didn’t take my too long to make and if you notice it’s also a single layer panel. For a little bit of added interested I simply propped up the panel on some 3D foam adhesive and matched it up with the, Long Johns, Lawn Fawn paper. The Neon Electric Green and this sheet of pattern paper by LF go hand in hand. What’s great about this paper is it’s also on sale by the sheet—so if you like the look of my card you could make many of them!
