Design Team Inspiration
I love that Mimi took the adventurous It’s a Bird mice out into a Desert Canyon Backdrop for some stargazing! She paired these cute little critters with a telescope from Super Star and camping gear from Car Critters Road Trip Add-On.
This family of squirrels is enjoying an afternoon of leisurely reading! Christy combined Little Woodland Library with Heart Tree to create a charming scene! To keep it sweet and simple she stenciled the background with Cloudy Stencil and Grassy Hillside Stencils.
Franci‘s clean and simple window card features our Sew Very Mice critters! She used Outside In Stitched Heart Stackables for the window and a Scalloped Rectangle in Bitsy Blooms paper to create a frame. Then she added a sweet sentiment stamped in Sage Leaf ink.
We all know cats love to play with yarn, so it’s not a leap to picture them knitting! Samantha created a cozy scene with Window Scene: Winter and Den Sweet Den. She included the cats from Purrfectly Wicked along with the shelf. I love how she used Knit Picky paper in the background, it’s a perfect choice!
Joyce chose Build-A-Bunny as her critter who loves painting! She dressed her up in overalls from Build-A-Bunny Accessories. Then she gathered all the things for her hobby from Canvas and Easel and Art Supplies! Her sentiment comes from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Bunny Puns.
This adorable You’re a Keeper bear is busy harvesting honey! Mayra shows us a fun bee-keeping hobby with Hive Five, Spring Basket and Heart Tree! She added a greeting from Magic Messages.
Samantha gathered a bunch of literature lovers from Little Woodland Library on her colorful card! She inked up 3 rectangle panels in rainbow colors, then using Lots of Stars Background Stencils she added stars with white stencil paste. I love how she colored the images to coordinate with the background colors!
Karin shows our cute Sew Very Mice critters on a thoughtful birthday gift! She used Fancy Box to create a little sewing kit for a friend!
The box is just big enough to fill with thread, tiny scissors, measuring tape, needles and pins!
Such a clever idea and a great way to show off these critters and their favorite hobby!
We will have more Design Team inspiration for the Critters & Hobbies challenge over the next 2 weeks! Be sure to come back tomorrow when we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 193 – Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song!
