Lawn Fawn and Simon Says Stamp Co-Challenge on Flickr

My sweet friend, Barb Engler and I have been cooking up a little fun over on Flickr and I'm so happy that today's the day to share it! Barb is the Admin for the Simon Says Stamp Flickr group and she runs a very popular challenge. Since I work for Lawn Fawn and am the moderator for our group we thought it might be fun to sponsor a challenge together. So there you have it, The Flickr Co-Challenge!


Barb and I met in a Flickr group many years ago, it's a great way to connect with other crafters, get inspired and share some encouragement. We hope you will find some wonderful crafty friends, and lasting friendships too.

Here's the link to the Lawn Fawn discussion thread to get you up to speed on this fun adventure:

The theme is "Get Crafty with Kraft" so get out your kraft cardstock and join us!

I created a card using a brand new Lawn Fawn sentiment set Scripty Sayings and our fabulous new Dye Ink Pads. The flower stamps are a fun Simon Says Stamp set called Favorite Flowers.

 I just love the look of white embossing on kraft cardstock. 

I die cut my kraft panel with Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables die. I used Lawn Fawn inks in Sunflower, Wild Rose, Freshly Cut Grass and Mermaid. I stamped the solid flowers and leaves and let the ink dry. When these inks dry the images are wonderfully smooth with nice crisp edges. Next I white embossed the swirls and fussy cut the flowers and leaves. To add a little more depth I sponged on more ink around edges of the flowers with an ink blending tool.




I hope you'll join in on the fun and oh, did I mention, there will be prizes for randomly chosen participants! Head on over to Flickr and get the whole scoop! 

Big thanks to Barb for doing all the work to make this happen. 

blessings,
nancy
