NEW YEAR’S AROUND THE WORLD WITH LAWN FAWN

Hello Crafty Friends! Today, I am sharing another card created for the last Lawn Fawnatics Challenge of 2022! #139 – Happy New Year Inspiration Board. This time, I was inspired by New Year’s celebrations around the world and created a card featuring New Year’s in New York, Tokyo, North Pole, and Kiribati (first place to ring in the New Year).

To start, I die cut the framed border out of Black Sparkle Cardstock using the Peekaboo Backdrop. Next, I lightly outlined the grids with a pencil on A2 White Cardstock. I placed the Stitched Fireworks dies onto the grids and ran the A2 Cardstock through my die cut machine. I ink blended the fireworks with Tumbled Glass, Festive Berries, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Inks. I splattered the background with Gold and White water colours. I wanted the fireworks to be extra sparkly so I added Star Dust Stickles.

While the background was drying, I used the Stitched Hillside Borders and the Simple Road Border to die cut the snow, sand, and road. For the road, I ink blended the back strip with Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink and the front strip with Black Soot Distress Ink. I lightly ink blended the snow with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink and added some glitter on the top edge. The sand was coloured with Copic Markers listed below.

I made the Times Square Building using rectangles from the Large and Small Mini Slimline Stackables and ink blended using Black Soot Distress Oxide with the Brick Stencil. The clock and the “big ball” was made using the circles from Let’s Bookah and I hand drew the details. I heat embossed “2023” with numbers from Plan On It: Calendar.

Mount Fuji was made using a mountain form the Shadow Box Stitched Mountain Add-On and the Shrine was made from Build-a-Barrel ink blended with Fired Brick and Aged Mahogany Distress Oxide Inks.

I adhered all the die cut images onto the background. I stamped, die cut, and coloured with Copic Markers listed below the remaining images and adhered the images onto the card. I adhered the frame using double sided foam tape and finished off the card with a White Heat embossed sentiment.

The Challenge is open until Sunday, Jan 1st at 11:59PM ET. All entries will have a chance to win a $50 Lawn Fawn gift certificate and you will also have a chance to be featured in the Lawn Fawnatics Blog!
