Hello crafty friends and happy Fourth of July. Today I’m sharing a fun Fourth of July Celebration, that I created using tons of LawnFawn stamps and dies. I wanted this slimline scene to be full of summertime favorites.
I started by stamping tons of food and snack images from several sets; Let’s BBQ, Sweet Friends, Screen Time, and Crazy Antics. I colored everything with my copic markers using lots of bold red, white, and blue combined with classic food colors. Then I cut everything out using the coordinating dies.
To build my background I used the Small Slimline Lift the Flaps stitched panel die to cut 3 pieces from different paper. I cut from white Bristol Smooth, Grassy green, and a dark grey cardstock. I trimmed the gray panel about 1/3 of the way down using the oldie but goodie Village Border Die. I used the small rectangles to cut from yellow scrap paper for the windows. I inked the edges of the village with black and purple oxide ink.
Next, I trimmed the green panel at about half way down with the Stitched Hillside Borders and inked the edges with lucky clover distress oxide ink. I trimmed a small portion of the left over green Panel to build my buffet of images upon. Once full and lush I mounted that to the bottom of the grass with foam tape. Then built the fun blanket scene toward the top, and adhered the grass to the dark village layer.
For the sky I cut the fireworks into the upper portion using Stitched Fireworks lawn Cuts , then inked the area with blues and purple. I splattered with white, and glittery ink and got to work on my sentiment. I cut the Scripty Happy lawn cuts from red cardstock and fun foam, then layered them together with liquid glue. I cut a banner with Fancy Wavy dies, and using blue ink, stamped “ Fourth of July” from the Celebration Scripty Sentiments.
Once everything was glued down I surrounded the sentiment with tiny star confetti. I’m so happy with how fun everything turned out and it reminds me of the great family gatherings of my childhood. I hope you like this and head over to the shop to check out all of these great items. Thank you for stopping by,
