Design Team Inspiration

For a lot of us, fall means weekend football games! Samantha captured the fun of being in the stands with her adorable card! She started with Watercolor Wishes Rainbow paper to create the warm backdrop, then she brought in some Stadium Seating. It wouldn’t be a high school or college football game without a band, so she added Critter Concert to entertain the crowd! She also used critters from Butterfly Kisses, Let’s Go Nuts and Virtual Friends Add-On. Celebrate Border is the simply perfect sentiment!

Joyce‘s lovely tea party celebrates all the colors of falling leaves! She combined Tea-rrific Day and Tea-rrific Day Add-On for all the party details and guests. Then she added the falling leaves from Jump for Joy! She created a pretty background by stenciling the Birch Trees.

Christy‘s beautiful design celebrates fall with Apple-solutely Awesome! She created this sweet scene on a Meadow Backdrop: Portrait with a pretty stenciled sky!

Mimi gave her Awesome Autumn card a fun farm vibe using Woodgrain cardstock and Simple Stripes: Landscape. She used Pumpkin Wagon and Deck the Car Lawn Cuts sets to add the “truck and trailer” to haul all the pumpkins. She got really clever and dressed the Ugly and Bright critters in overalls from Little Bundle! And then she added Giant Happy Fall and sunflowers from Magic Iris Fall Leaves Add-On and leafy tendrils from Pumpkin House.

Franci chose Forest Feast for her sweet celebration of fall! She used Birch Tree Stencils to add warm color and a fun backdrop!

Karin‘s card is so beautiful with sweet and whimsical details! She created the background with Fall Leaves Background Stencils that she layered on a Fancy Scalloped Rectangle. Then she added Giant XOXO in gold metallic cardstock. The final cute details are the squirrel from Let’s Go Nuts and tiny pumpkins from Spooky Village.

These two Ugly and Bright critters are enjoying a hike through the woods to see all the falling leaves! Catherine created this Awesome Autumn scene with trees from Joy to the Woods, stenciled Birch Trees and a Grassy Hillside Border. The leaves are from Let’s Go Nuts and the sentiment is found in Forest Feast. She created the backpacks from the sushi roll in Let’s Roll, the hat is from Dad + Me and the scarf and beanie are from Winter Sparrows!

The Let’s Go Nuts squirrels are celebrating the falling leaves in Samantha‘s adorable card scene! She also added the cute squirrels from Happy Hugs on the branches from A Bug Deal. She colored the leaves from You Autumn Know in all the gorgeous colors of fall!

Jenn‘s lovely card captures Awesome Autumn in the beautiful colors of the Stitched Leaves and the cute Big Acorn! The used Giant Thank You that is perfect for this season of thankfulness!

We will share more Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 WEEKS and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 132 – Color Inspiration tomorrow! Now it’s time to craft up some Autumn awesomeness!
