Design Team Inspiration


Samantha C chose the vertical column under I with prompts; bright, critter, lawn cuts, stamp and cute! I think she nailed it with this bright and cheery card featuring unicorns from Unicorn Picnic and A Little Sparkle. She added Lawn Cuts dies from Stitched Rainbow, Starry Skies and Puffy Cloud Backdrop: Landscape!


Mimi was also feeling the unicorn vibe, but she went a totally different direction. Working with the elements in row 3 she used Unicorn Party Foiled Washi Tape and Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame. She colored the Dream Big unicorn with markers to create a happy birthday card! She spelled out the greeting with Finley’s ABCs and used lots of happy Rainbow Ever After paper too!


Joyce found her inspiration in the N column which contains heart, ink, birthday, cardstock and stencil! Her delightful card features stenciled heart balloons and confetti from Balloon Stencil along with the cute Really High Five critters with a birthday sentiment. She used Moonstone cardstock for the background and Moonstone, Forget-Me-Not and Manatee ink for the stenciling!


Karin used the prompts in the O column to create a happy, interactive card with mice and glitter! Her card features Happy Couples, with the flower arbor as the shaker window filled with colorful sequins. The Happy Anniversary sentiment is from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Spring. She also used foam squares to add dimension!


Franci chose the I column creating a bright and cute card with a critter made with Garden Snail Lawn Cuts! And to bring in a stamped element she added a sweet little sentiment from Butterfly Kisses!


Samantha‘s beautiful card is inspired by the G column! She used the Woodgrain Background Hot Foil Plate, then added rainbow inking on top. She colored the Hive Five images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers before using scissors to fussy cut them!


Christy found inspiration for her adorable birthday card using the top left to bottom right diagonal line! She used a paper trimmer to cut a panel for the ink-blended and Birch Tree stenciled background. She invited lots of critters from Simple Celebrate More Critters and Toucan Do It to a birthday party with a Giant Happy Birthday to You greeting!


Catherine was also inspired by the I column to create this totally clever design! She filled it with bright color, cute critters and Lawn Cuts dies with Stitched Root Veggies and Stitched Garden Veggies! Be sure to visit her blog for all the details for how she made this fun grocery shopping scene!


Following the G column, Jenn used two hot foil elements with Foiled Sentiments: Sending Rainbows and Cloud Background Hot Foil Plate: Landscape. She inked the background and the sentiment circle with rainbow colors and added more rainbows with My Rainbow!

Design Team Inspiration


Christy loves to use patterned papers in her designs, and the combinations always look so amazing. For this card she used pretty pastel paper from Rainbow Ever After. They are the perfect backdrop for her sweet Winter Birds scene!


Catherine created a brilliant patchwork “stuffed dog” to highlight the pretty Rainbow Ever After and What’s Sewing On papers. She pieced together the dog using Tiny Gift Box Dog Add-On for the head and Raccoon and Fox Add-On for the body. She also used the coordinating egg die from Chirpy Chirp Chirp for the body and Circle Stackables for the paws as well. The buttons and the sentiment are from Sewn with Love. And Catherine used Foursquare Backdrop: Portrait to create a “quilt”.


Mimi‘s card is Just Plane Awesome! She used papers from Rainbow Ever After and Into the Woods Remix to create wallpaper and a wood floor. Then she created her own “paper” to fill the Window Frame panes using Just Plane Awesome Foiled Washi tape! So clever!


Samantha made a sweet sewing themed design by combining What’s Sewing On paper with Sew Very Mice stamped images! She created cute little scenes on a Foursquare Backdrop: Landscape.


Karin‘s simple design has big impact with her brightly inked Giant Sending Big Hugs greeting! The Rainbow Ever After paper is the perfect background, layered on a black Fancy Scalloped Rectangle! I love the cute little birds from Happy Couples!


I love that Joyce used the pretty What’s Sewing On paper to create an adorable gift tag! It looks great with the cute Veggie Happy and Veggie Happy Add-On images!


The fun plaid papers give Franci‘s card a fresh farmhouse look! She combined our Stitched Garden Veggies and Stitched Root Veggies with cute smiling faces in a totally charming design!


Samantha combined papers from Really Rainbow and Into the Woods Remix Petite Packs to create a cheery birthday card! She cut the Outside In Stitched Balloons from the patterned papers. Then she added a greeting from Party Animal on a vellum Fancy Wavy Banner!

Design Team Inspiration


Catherine assembled lots of cute critters to illustrate a happy Winnie the Pooh scene! Pooh bear is played by Little Snow Globe: Bear. Piglet is from Tiny Farm, Roo is from Kanga-rrific, Rabbit is from Eggstra Amazing Easter and Owl is from S’more the Merrier!


Inspired by the back cover of Little Golden Books, Christy combined a bunch of woodland critters sets to create a lovely birthday card! She used Porcu-pine for You, Scent with Love, Let’s Go Nuts, Wood You Be Mine, Critters in the Arctic and A Bug Deal.


Mimi‘s design is so clever, inspired by The Super Mario Bros Movie! As always, Mimi likes to shop her stash to create lookalike characters! Here’s the list of sets she used:
Mario/Luigi
Ugly and Bright -bear (masked bear nose/mouth), letters L,M on cap
Little Bundle -overalls
Special Delivery -cap
Dad + Me – mustache on Mario, sentiment
Thanks a Latte – mustache for Luigi
Costume Party -jack’o lantern eyes for eyebrows
Toads
On the Beach -coconut drink for cap
Tiny Friends – ‘mom’
You Are Sublime -circles on cap from submarine
Mushrooms
Oh Gnome!
Porcu-Pine For You


Franci combined Veggie Happy and Eggstra Amazing Easter to create a card inspired by Peter Rabbit!


Samantha created a sweet design inspired by Alice in Wonderland! She filled her scene with images from Bicycle Built for You, Tea-rrific Day and Tea-rrific Day Add-On. She also used Oh Gnome, Meadow Backdrop: Portrait and Spring Showers!


Joyce was inspired by the movie “You’ve Got Mail”, where Tom Hanks’ character Joe Fox and his dog Brinkley have just received an e-mail from Meg Ryan’s Kathleen Kelly. She used images from Virtual Friends and Virtual Friends Add-On. She also added to her scene with Screen Time, Yappy Birthday, You’re Just My Type, Den Sweet Den, Special Delivery and Love Letters.


This interesting design by Karin was inspired by a favorite book she read last year: Charlotte McConaghy’s Once There Were Wolves about Inti who wants to save the wolves and care for her younger sister Aggie. The sisters are both glad they are “in the same pack“. She illustrated the theme using Wild Wolves and Lift the Flap Tree Backdrop.


Samantha was inspired by her all-time favorite book series: A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas. She used Cloudy Stencil, Stitched Mountain Borders to illustrate her theme. Then she used Milo’s ABCs to add a quote.


Jenn‘s super sweet card is inspired by Strawberry Shortcake! She used Outside In Stitched Strawberry and Strawberry Patch along with Berry Special and Meow You Doin’. She made the sentiment with Finley’s ABCs and Riley’s ABCs, then she assembled everything on water-color clouds using Cloud Background Stencil.

We will have more Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song Design Team inspiration right here over the next 2 weeks! Be sure to come back tomorrow when we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 168 – All Things Birthday!
