Hi there! I was SO SUPER EXCITED to get my new Lawn Fawn Stamps {from Simon Says Stamp) yesterday!!! I was so trigger happy to get them, that when Laurel said they had the newbies in stock, I immediately placed the order! I have a few friends having Birthdays this week, and so, I'll be stamping the nights away - YAY!
Since the SECOND I saw the new "You've Got Mail" stamp set; I had this idea to use the sweet little snail from LF's Critters in Burbs set (sadly, I don't use this little guy enough) to make some SNAIL MAIL!!!!!! EEK! I love it! I used these two stamp sets plus Sally’s ABCs and the little heart from the Plus One Stamp Set (on the little letter). I combined these adorable stamps with Lawn Fawn's new 6x6 Petite Paper Pack, a bit of lush Dear Lizzy flowered ribbon that was in my stash, and this *fabulous* Air Mail {Divine} Twine. To create the sentiment, I simply inked up the “sending” and the “your way” portion of the sentiment that is included in the You’ve Got Mail Set with Sally’s ABCs ;).
I made this card TOTALLY inspired by the Lawnscaping Challenge #29!! The challenge is this fabulous sketch . What a great sketch right?!? The DT did great things with it too - and they have the amazable Chari as a Guest DT Member, so if you haven't yet, you totally need to go check it out!!!
I'm so very excited about all of the new Lawn Fawn goodies! In addition to the goodies mentioned above, I also snatched up the "Gnome Sweet Gnome" and "Flying By" stamp sets, and the single Lawn Trimmings in Natural. Let the fun begin!!!
Anyway, I hope you'll play along with Lawnscaping's Challenge! They rock!!!
