Design Team Inspiration


Raise your hand if you love a good corn maze adventure! Mimi captured this fun Fall staple on a Platform Pop-Up card with multiple layers of cornstalks from Happy Harvest! The critters enjoying the maze are from Treat Cart and there are mini cornstalks, corn, hay, pumpkins and the wooden sign from Hay There, Hayrides.


Mimi also used Platform Pop-Up Picket Fence Wrap Around and the banner from Fangtastic Friends Add-On for the “a-maizing” sign!


Franci created this fabulous, mostly die cut card using Spooky Forest Backdrop and Spooky Fence Border. She found more spooky ghosts in Build-A-House Halloween Add-On. She stamped cute faces from Let’s Roll on the headstones and finished with a sentiment from Costume Party.


Karin created a lovely card with Fall Leaves Background Stencils in gorgeous Fall colors! It’s a perfect backdrop for the Thanks a Bushel apples and cute Let’s Go Nuts squirrel. She stamped the sentiment from Hay There, Hayrides on a banner from the Treat Cart Sentiment Add-On coordinating dies.



Catherine‘s Halloween shaker card is so fun! She filled Build-A-Gumball Machine with colorful mints from How You Bean? Mint Add-On and glitter. Then she created another shaker for the background with Spiderweb Backdrop adding spiders from Cute Cobweb. The mice wearing hats from Holiday Party Animal are from Merry Mice and Sew Very Mice.

She finished the card with cheery paper from Pint-Sized Patterns Summertime and die cut mints from Peppermint Border.


Cozying up with a good book on chilly day is a favorite pastime for many of us! Joyce created a lovely bookmark by combining Book Collection, Stitched Bookmark and Falling Leaves paper. She added the saying with Violet’s ABCs.


Samantha‘s Halloween card is filled with happy color and cute critters! The Wood You Be Mine? beavers pair perfectly with Purrfectly Wicked and Fangtastic Friends! She added cool detail with Scalloped Rectangle Stackables and Just Stitching Double Rectangles.


Oh goodness, Christy‘s card featuring Treat Cart Add-On: Coffee is just the cutest! All the cute woodland critters of Little Woodland Library are gathered around the Tea-rrific Day tree stump enjoying an Autumn day! She assembled her scene on a Stitched Rounded Rectangle layered over pretty Falling Leaves papers.


Samantha‘s design is full of Autumn beauty with an ink-blended background! She colored the leaves from You Autumn Know in gorgeous warm colors and arranged her scene with Let’s Go Nuts squirrels on branches from A Bug Deal.


We will have more Design Team inspiration for the Awesome Autumn challenge over the next 3 weeksBe sure to come back tomorrow when we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random raffle winner for Challenge 180 – Woodland Wonder!

I love how Samantha framed this cute woodland scene with a Forest Backdrop in pretty Falling Leaves paper. The yellow What’s Sewing On paper in the background coordinates beautifully. And the Mushroom Border grass is a perfect Fall color from Watercolor Wishes.

The tree stump from Tea-rrific Day becomes a bandstand for the woodland musicians of Critter Concert! And a kite, clouds and butterfly from Whoosh, Kites! complete this wonderful scene!

Thank you for this brilliant inspiration, Samantha!

The Little Woodland Library critters are just too cute, and they are even more adorable on Franci’s fun tag design! Join the Woodland Wonder challenge, click HERE.


Franci used the Say What? Gift Tags as the base of her set of tags. She masked off the edges to ink them in pretty pastels, leaving a white border. Then she filled each tag with a sweet little vignette of woodland critters!


To add the fun little sayings, Franci used the speech bubbles included in the Say What? Gift Tags set. They look so great stamped in Sage Leaf ink. And the final touch was to tie some White Hemp Twine to the top. So cute!

I love these super cute tags, Franci! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
