I Could Have Texted…

Hello! The White Rose Crafts Design Team is featuring Lawn Fawn this week, which makes me super happy. I just love Lawn Fawn, and their December release really had me smiling. I love the sweet little mice and their typewriters. I decided to make a card that’s fairly simple to make, and actually has decoration on the inside, which I rarely do, for some reason.

For this card, I used the Love Poems stamp and die set as well as the You’re Just my Type stamp and die set. I began by stamping, coloring and die cutting 6 mice with typewriters. I only stamped the sentiments on after I had the other steps done, because I wasn’t sure exactly how many mice I’d use. But I was happy to get all 6 on and in the card.

I love that you don’t actually have to make a rhyme with these sets. And truthfully, they crack me up when they don’t rhyme and you point it out. As you can see, I colored the typewriters in a rainbow, and I mimicked that rainbow in the background of the card front.

My card front was made with a piece of watercolor paper, and I painted my watery rainbow with my Koi watercolors. And, truth be told, I got a little pink ink on my “roses” sentiment, so instead of redoing it or trying to erase it, I just added some watercolor to it, as well as the “blue” sentiment. There are only “happy accidents,” right Bob Ross fans?

I adhered the pink and yellow typewriters directly to my watercolor cardstock, and I popped up the orange and green ones. That dimension allowed me to tuck some of my sequins under the typewriters, which I thought looked really pretty. I adhered all of my sequins with On Point Glue.

I really love how this card turned out. It can be duplicated easily, while still giving you the ability to change up the sentiments as you like. I am having so much fun with the newest Lawn Fawn release! Be sure to head over to the White Rose Crafts shop to see everything new that has arrived.
