Hi Friends, thank you so much for joining me on my first post! I am so excited and honored to be a Guest Designer for Lawn Fawnatics.
Fall is here and it’s back to school for the squirrels! Here are the details on how I created the card:
The sky background was created using Slimline Cloudy Stencil. For the trees, I used Lift the Flap Tree Backdrop to cut out the right and left tree from white cardstock. I then ink-blended the trees with Scattered Straw and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide Inks and splattered specks of brown watercolour paint.
The school house was created using the Acorn House die and the roof and door frame with paper from Knock On Wood paper pack. I applied Pumice Stone Distress Oxide Ink onto the school house and then splattered Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide Ink mixed with a drop of water. The door was made using White Woodgrain cardstock ink-blended with Candied Apple Distress Ink.
The grass was created with two pieces of white cardstock cut from the Grassy Border die and then ink-blended with Shabby Shutters, Peeled Paint, and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Inks. I then splattered Mowed Lawn Distress Ink mixed with water for highlights.
The school clock is from Plan On It: Appointments, and the bell is from Here We Go A-Waddling. I used Let’s Go Nuts and Jump for Joy to create the scene and borrowed books from Den Sweet Den. To finish off the card, I added an orange border with paper from Into The Woods Remix pack.
I hope you like my card and thanks for stopping by!
