Butterfly Reflections Ink--guest design

Hi everyone!  I'm up today on the Butterfly Reflections, Ink blog today with a guest design post using Concord & 9th stamps.  Head on over for detailed directions and supply links for the full card design.

Lawnfawnatics Die Cut Beach Scene

I had some time to participate in the Lawnfawnatics Color Inspiration challenge today and decided to go with a (mostly) die cut only card--the only stamping is the birds.  I'm going to choose a sentiment for the inside of the card once I decide to give it to somebody.  :)
Supplies (all by Lawn Fawn, unless otherwise noted):
Palm Trees dies
Palm Trees & Hammock dies
Stitched Simple Wavy Border die
Stitched Hillside Border die
Stitched Umbrella die
Smooth Sailing stamp set (birds)
Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables die
Mermaid, Peacock, Paper Bag, Chocolate Bar, Noble Fir, Cilantro, Fake Tan, Narwhal, Fog, Guava, Sugarplum, and Ground Coffee card stock
Vellum
Mermaid, Peacock, Doe, Walnut, Noble Fir, Manatee, Guava, Cilantro, Jet Back, and Fake Tan ink pads
Other:  Foam tape, ink blending brushes

Lawn Fawn Magic Picture Changer birthday card/Reveal Wheel Father's Day card

Instagram:  @amypeach1978

My girls and I made two of the Father's Day cards (on the left)--one for my husband and one for their dad, and a birthday card for their dad because his birthday was a few days after Father's Day.  I pretty much used the same design for the Reveal Wheel Father's Day cards that I used for the card I made for my friend and coworker a couple weeks ago.  Nobody does interactive dies like Lawn Fawn--they are so impressive and don't take too terribly long to make.  The "gravel" in the fish bowl was kind of covering up a mistake, but I ended up liking it a lot--I mounted the wheel just a teensy bit too high, apparently, and the very tip of the brad prongs was showing up in the fish bowl as you turned the wheel.

Instagram:  @amypeach1978

Very early in our relationship, my husband mentioned something about how cool it was that we "go together like peas & carrots," (from the movie Forrest Gump).  I just got the Stitched Garden Border die, so I had to make him a Peas & Carrots card with the Reveal Wheel.  :)

Lawn Fawn Hand-Tiled Baby Card

Instagram:  @amypeach1978

I had some time to craft yesterday, so I spent a million years inlaying the "tiles" into the Fancy Lattice Backdrop.  :D  I was originally only going to do it to the top half of the panel, but then decided to finish it up, cut it in half when I was finished, and now I have enough for two cards.  I love the way this card turned out!

Foiled Peas

Instagram:  @amypeach1978

This is another one that I somehow forgot to upload here.  About a month ago, I was playing around with some Transfer Gel and Deco Foil and made a few backgrounds with Simon Says Stamp stencils.  I thought the rainbow foiling was super fun and wanted to highlight it simply, so I pulled out this little pea set from Lawn Fawn.

Transfer Gel
Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow stencil

I made this a month ago, originally for the SSS Do it With Dimension challenge.  I didn't have time to upload/edit the card on Flickr right when I made it, so I waited a few days until I had time--then I had some technical difficulties, then Flickr was down for a couple days.  I could have uploaded it for the next challenge (Anything Goes), but time got away from me and I missed that one, too.  Anyway, I figure better late than never.  :)
Supplies (all by Simon Says Stamp, unless otherwise noted):
SSS Frames die set
Stitching Butterflies dies
Tiny Words stamp set
SSS Happy Birthday die
Other:  Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables die, gold embossing powder, Ranger Alcohol Inks, Yupo Paper, foam tape, Vellum
