Fly Into Fall with a Scene Card for Lawn Fawn!

A card with a background of green paper printed with falling leaves. Cutesy birds colored as robins, chickadees, and mockingbirds fly around a hanging bird feeder full of seeds. Some perch on branches with red, orange, and yellow leaves, along with two brown squirrels. One robin holds the sentiment "You're Seed-Sational"

With a new school year underway, I already can’t wait for fall! For the Fall/Back to School Inspiration Board Lawn Fawnatics challenge, I took inspiration from my area’s native birds for this special card for a sweet friend.

I began my stamping and heat embossing all of my images, using the Backyard Bird Feeder and Backyard Bird Feeder Add-On stamp sets from Lawn Fawn. I colored everything in with alcohol markers and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I chose to color my birds as chickadees, robins, and even mockingbirds!

I’m always trying to use my patterned paper more often instead of saving it because I can’t decide on the “perfect” time to use it. To fit with the fall theme, I chose Falling Leaves patterned paper from Lawn Fawn, in green to contrast with the red feeder and robin bellies.

To finish up this card, I arranged my complete scene, with birds and squirrels gathered around the feeder for a snack. I chose the sentiment “You’re Seed-sational” from the Backyard Bird Feeder stamp set and fussy cut around it, then had one of the robins carry it onto the scene for an extra dash of cuteness!
