May I Have More, Peas?

So, I'm loving the Be Hap-pea stamp and dies over at Lawn Fawn and have been stamping and coloring away. The challenge this month is a Fun with Food challenge, so yay! I get to use the peas for this one!

I CASed the design from the Lawn Fawn blog and the card Yainea made here. She inked a circle for the focal point and put her peas in there, so that's what I did too. I just recently realized that LF also gives you sketches for some of their stamp sets to help get you started on your card making, which is super helpful!


I used the Lawn Fawn 6x6 watercolor paper pad too, I am in love with this paper pad! Here's a close-up of the peas that I colored with Prismacolor pencils. I love all the little faces you can choose for these guys!


Hope you'll join me in this challenge for a chance to win a gift certificate to a fab store!


I know I have more Lawn Fawn stamps with food, so I'm going to have to enter again...this is a fun challenge!

Happy Wednesday!

Hap-pea Challenge

The Lawnfawnatics Challenge this month is Book, Movie or Song inspiration...and I've been so inspired by all the beautiful DT projects and the entries. 



This is my third entry to this challenge and I hope to squeeze one more in before it closes tomorrow. My book for two of my cards is Little Pea by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrated by Jen Corace. The other Little Pea card is on my IG account here. 




For my first card, I felt that it wasn't as polished as it could be, so I searched the Lawn Fawn blog and decided that I loved the card made by Yainea at Lawn Fawn...I loved that she made a circular background to add the peas to. I colored all my images with Prismacolor pencils and used Distress Oxides in Twisted Citron for the inking and stamping. I definitely think this card looks more professional, but still fun.


I love this set since it reminds me of one of my and my kids' favorite books when they were younger. Guess what my daughter (the librarian) said when she saw this card? "Little Pea!" so I showed her the book sitting on my work space and we said a couple favorite lines.

Thanks for the fun challenge, the DT inspiration, Yainea, and the Be Hap-pea stamp set, Lawn Fawn!

Happy Saturday!
