Love all the cards, but February is my favorite!
Happy 2020! All your alcohol ink cards are my favorites. So also your floral cards especially the September one.
Your cards make me smile, Jess… from the Purple Onion rollercoaster scene to the gorgeous Waffle Flower floral card. I’m looking forward to seeing more of your alcohol ink creations! Best wishes for 2020!

Dear Jessica

Congratulations on your new venture.
All your cards are beautiful works of art. It is hard to choose but in like the August and september cards the most.
With loads of love and gratitude
The March superhero dog card was one that I recall seeing a lot.
I love all of your cards but if I had to choose the florals are always my favorite! Good luck with your new endeavors. Can’t wait to see what you are creating.
I credit you for teaching me the alcohol ink and foil technique. It is a game-changer and I thank you for that.
As a subscriber to your blog, I am always amazed at the vivid color and detail you put into each creation. It is hard to pick a favorite, but the whale card is right at the top of my list for its colors & the serenity it reflects.
I’m new to Lawn Fawn designs, and so glad to have found your blog of inspiration. This cute card was my favorite https://www.allthesparkle.com/lfch32/ – it really spoke to me!
Thanks for being a creative inspiration for me over the past year – I love your work!
Thank you for the inspiration – so hard to pick but I think Gusteau’s is just the cutest! Happy New Year!
That roller coaster card was one of my favorites! I remember seeing it earlier and absolutely LOVING it. Although, that last one with the cute couple in the snow is also AMAZING. LOVE that one so much! Happy New Year!
They are all stunning but I adore that Winter Wonderland! Beautiful!
My favorite thing about you, is your uses of bright bold color! My fave card is September for that reason! HNY to you and yours and sending good vibes to your pups! Thanks for the chance to win such a generous prize!
HNY to you! Thank you for all of your beautiful creative idea and art!
Love the lawn fawn Gusteau’s card, so creative! Thanks for the giveaway!
Love all your work over on IG too! Although, Hello beautiful is a real eye catcher! Happy 2020!!!
I really enjoy watching what you create! You do very beautiful work! I am interested in learning more about the alcohol ink and resin pieces as well. It’s just fascinates me.
I will say the Purple Onion May card is my favorite but I love all your cards and especially love the alchohol ink work you have been doing. I keep trying to get the gold in my designs but can’t quite get it to look good yet. Thank you so much for all the inspiration!
you are an INCREDIBLE card maker! I would say the whale card is my favourite. I am drawn to whale stamps lately. thank you
Thanks for your hard work and beautiful designs! Can’t wait to see what happens in 2020!
Thank you and Happy New Year, Jess! I have subscribed as I’m looking forward to seeing you work with alcohol inks! I like the way you color floral cards, your October Dahlia is lovely!
Happy New Year 🙂 I love all your creations, the most fav being the Lawn Fawn interactive card from July! It is super fun with vibrant colors 🙂 Thank you for the giveaway!
Your flower cards are always so beautiful
