We Flamingo Together

Hello and welcome to my blog! I made this card for my Anniversary and for the Lawn Fawn Challenge!


Even though the Flamingo together stamp and die set came out a long time ago I just bought it last weekend.  I have wanted it for a while but I just had not had the chance to buy it before.  So of course I wanted to use it right away.  It had a romantic sentiment and what says summer like flamingos so it worked for both the challenge and my anniversary card too!  Bonus!  I got out the stamp and die set, my memento ink pad, my shammie, some white cardstock and my acrylic block.

I stamped my images.

I decided to use just the flamingos so I colored them with my Zig real brush markers.

Then I got to work on the background of the card.  I knew I wanted to use the Lawn Fawn heart dies and watercolor paper in my background for sure.  I also decided to use the fancy scalloped rectangle dies too.

For the heart I selected one of my free papers I had been sent with a shipment of stamps and dies from Lawn Fawn!!!  I always look forward to the free paper and stamps with each shipment!  And I used an orange cardstock that matched the beaks of my flamingos.

I cut out my hearts, rectangle and my flamingos with my cuddlebug and my magnetic plate!  No more washi to hold dies down anymore!!!

Next it was time to stamp my sentiment to the bottom of my card.

Then I played around with my hearts and flamingos until I liked what I saw.  I attached my hearts with miracle tape and my flamingos with pop dots.

Now I have this cute card to give my husband on our upcoming 11th wedding anniversary!  Where did the time go???  Anyway I hope you enjoyed this card tutorial today!  Come back soon to see more!  Below you will find a supply list and a plug for my local scrapbook store.  You can but most of the supplies I used here today from them and many more unique papercrafting supplies the big box stores do not carry.
