About Us

who is lawn fawn?

Lawn Fawn is a small company from Southern California that specializes in crafting products (clear stamps, dies, paper & more) that are fun and lively. Lawn Fawn was started in 2010 when Kelly Marie combined forces with her husband Mike and friend Erica with a mission in mind - to bring smiles into the lives of crafters!!

what does the name lawn fawn mean?

Lawn Fawn is named after a plastic deer that Kelly Marie received as a 21st birthday present. She named him François the Lawn Fawn, and he became a good luck charm of sorts. When deciding on a name for the company Lawn Fawn just seemed perfect. It is cute, whimsical and quirky, just like us!

can you tell me a little about your team?
