Hello Crafty Friends! Today I have a project using a brand new Valentine’s Release product from Lawn Fawn! We have a new critter to introduce, I hope you love Pandas because this new release is Panda-monium!
I Heart Pandas is the cutest most huggable set and this little panda couple is perfect for Valentine’s day! We also have new goodies to help set the scene like Bamboo Stencils and the amazing new Bamboo Forest Backdrop dies. I used the backdrop die in portrait cut from Watercolor Wishes paper with just a little inking to the leaves. I love how it makes the perfect frame for these black & white beauties.
I wanted to anchor my card with a big die cut sentiment to bring in a pop of color. The new Scripty XOXO Outline Add-On is great to bring new life into the older Scripty XOXO die. I cut the sentiment from Guava cardstock with the outline cut from spiffy speckles paper to match the frame.
No Lawn Fawn card would be complete with out some punny sentiments. I added the small “I chews you” in a speech bubble from All The Speech Bubbles above the cute pandas and of course the main sentiment on a Stitched Sentiment Banner to wish you a Panda-stic Valentine’s Day!

Sweet Holiday Gift Tag Inspiration by Cheiron Brandon!
Hi friends! Happy Wednesday! I’m delighted to welcome back special guest Cheiron Brandon to our blog for an adorable quick tag idea perfect for some sweet tags! Read on to learn more and enjoy!
Hello crafty friends! It’s Cheiron Brandon here and I have a fun tutorial for you for the holidays. I don’t know about you, but I am always wrapping gifts at the last minute. I would much rather spend my free time in the craft room this time of year. I am all about the simple wrapping – tissue paper, cellophane, etc. tied up with some pretty ribbon and a beautiful handmade tag. Today I will be creating a set of tags with you using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Christmas Minis dies.
To create these tags, I started by cutting some Simon Says Stamp Soft Navy card stock using a Tim Holtz Sizzix tag die. Once I cut out the tags, I sprayed them with antique linen Distress Spritz and dried them with a heat tool. I cut out all my gingerbread people and candy canes from the Christmas Minis set and assembled them. Then I inked the edges of the Gingerbread people with Frayed Burlap Distress Ink.
I cut round pinked edge labels using the Tim Holtz SIzzix Labels dies, then used a foam blending tool to ink the edges with Honey Bee Metallic Gold Ink. Then I adhered my gingerbread people and candy canes to the labels using foam tape, then set them aside.
To create the striped papers, I used the embossing folder from the Christmas Minis set and inked it on one side (I inked the side that had the black stripes) and then ran a piece of Distress Watercolor cardstock through it. I put my smooth side of the watercolor against the inky side.
Once I created the striped panels and added some messy stitching. I adhered the panels to my tags, added the circular label with the gingerbread people and then added a label from the Christmas Sticker book and some twine from my stash to the top. These are all ready to tie on gifts now for some super quick (but cute!) wrapping.
Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season!
