Sweet NEW Easter Inspiration from Lawn Fawn!
Hi friends! Happy Wednesday! Please join me in giving a warm welcome back to our blog as a guest, Audrey Tokach! She’s showcasing some adorable new Spring products from Lawn Fawn! Read on to learn more and enjoy!
Hello friends! Audrey here with an Easter card to share with you using the new Spring release from Lawn Fawn! To create my card, I cut the pink floral pattern from the 12×12 collection pack of the Bitsy Blooms patterned paper using the largest die from the Outside In Stitched Rectangles dies. I cut a window in the panel using the Lawn Fawn Outside In Easter Egg Stackables and Easter Egg Frames dies. Nesting Ovals dies would also work beautifully to create a window. I backed window with the pink plaid paper from the Bitsy Blooms 6×6 Petite Paper Pack.
For my focal point, I used the new Build-A-Bunny dies and Build-A-Bunny Accessories dies to create an adorable little girl bunny holding a flower to match the patterned paper, and surrounded her with tiny diecut carrots which can be found in the Build-A-Bunny Accessories die set. For a sentiment, I used the new Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Bunny Puns for the first part of my greeting, stamped in Raspberry ink onto an Everyday Sentiment Banner diecut and then used the new Scripty Easter and Scripty Easter Outline dies to create a layered diecut to finish the greeting. Then, I used more of Bitsy Blooms 12×12 collection pack papers to add a plaid layer to an A2 card base before adhering the focal point. To finish things off, I added some white gel pen accents.
