L is for Lawn Fawn

I am playing along with the Alphabet Soup challenge in the Papercrafter's Inner Circle group on Facebook, and the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge (masculine!).  Not only is L for Lawn Fawn, but also for 'Let's Bbq' - the name of this stamp set.

I stamped the images onto some cream cardstock, and coloured them up with my Copic markers... then fussy cut them all out!

I pulled out my Buffalo Plaid Betterpress plate, and pressed it in Pinkfresh Studio's Berrylicious ink, which was quite a dark red - but it dried considerably more muted.  It was supposed to look like a classic picnic tablecloth, but I ended up quite liking the muted tone that matched the meats.

I mounted it on some matching deep blue cardstock, and added the sentiment.  The inside says "Relish the day".  I was able to get two of these made, and will use them as Father's Day cards.

Let's BBQ

I loved making this card!  I've had this stamp set (Let's BBQ) from Lawn Fawn for a few years, and only used it a couple of times... but had these images stamped and coloured up.  I decided to use them as a slimline card for my demo last weekend, and put together my little scene:

 I used my Puffy Clouds die to cut a stencil from some copy paper, and used some Broken China Distress Oxide ink to create my cloudy sky.  Then cut my Stitched Hillside Border dies in some green cardstock to create the grassy hills.  The gingham was some ancient paper that I had from my CTMH days - but it made a perfect tablecloth.

The images were all stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured with Copic markers and fussy cut before being adhered to the scene.
