Thanks!

 Hello everyone,

Update:  I'm very excited and honoured to say that I was chosen "Top Mow-It-All" for this challenge!



I'm here with a thank you card for you today.  I absolutely love this set by Lawn Fawn and I think it's one of my most used.

I started with a white card stock panel and used a chevron embossing folder and ran that through my die cutting machine.  I then took the stitched oval dies from LF and cut it out of an ivory piece of card stock an with the sweet little faces from the Thanks a bushel set, stamped them all over the panel with SSS chocolate ink.  I stamped the little heart with SSS Teeny Bikini ink.


I had this banner die cut in my stash (I can't remember who it's from, sorry!) and it fit perfect, so instead of trying to find a coloured card stock to match I just took the same ink I used for the little hearts and inked up the banner.  This way it's a perfect match and I used up something from my ever growing stash pile!

I stamped the coffee and donut with SSS intense black ink and coloured them in with my copics.  I used R20 & R22 for the pinks, C1 & 0 for the lid and E23 & E25 for the brown on the donut. I then used the dies to cut them out.  I added the adorable little faces from the Thanks a Bushel set with SSS Chocolate ink and Teeny Bikini inks.  I cut out the Thanks from white card stock and adhered it to the banner die cut.



I'm playing along with the Lawnscaping Challenge - Give Thanks



"Thanks" for stopping by, see you again soon.

I'll be starting my 12 day of Christmas cards soon, so stay tuned!

  1. Coralynn, thank YOU! I believe this is the VERY card I received yesterday and it is BEAUTIFULLY made! (My 2 year old grandson was quick to point out the donut & coffee, being as we are regulars at "Timmie's"! LOL)
    This card will go on my "inspirational shelf" with the other ones from: Marika Rahtu, Nina-Marie's and Kathy Racoosin's, just to name a few... Thank you again!

    1. I am humbled and honoured to have one of my cards on display in your home among some very talented crafters. I'm super glad that you are a coffee lover and the card was a perfect fit. xo

  2. This is really beautiful and fun! I love the background you created, with the silly faces! I hadn't thought to use the various faces like that before. Great job!
