Samantha’s Sweet Critter Birthday Card

- Nancy Krueger 2 Comments

We invite you to join us for our current All Things Birthday Challenge! It will be open until Sunday, March 20th at 11:59PM ET. We can’t wait to see your creative birthday ideas!

Samantha created a birthday card with some super cute critters! She started with a Fancy Lattice Backdrop in white layered over a Speckled Eggshell panel. She added this to a Ballet Slippers panel to create a pretty pastel background.

Next, she stamped, colored and die cut images to create a sweet critter birthday celebration! She combined Birthday Before ‘n Afters, Butterfly Kisses, Really High Five, Dandy Day and Scootin’ By. For the greeting she stamped a birthday message from Wavy Sayings on a Simple Wavy Banner.

Thank you so much for inspiring us today, Samantha! This card is so adorable!

Happy crafting friends! We can’t wait to see your All Things Birthday creativity!

We can’t wait to see your creative Create a Scene projects! This challenge will be open until Sunday, May 2 at 11:59PM ET. Have fun!

Our wonderful Guest Designer, Ashley joins us today to share some amazing Create a Scene inspiration!

Ashley’s festive underwater birthday party scene features Ocean Shell-fie and Birthday Before ‘n Afters! She built her fantastic scene on a Large Slimline with Sliders panel that she stenciled with the Bubbles Stencil!

How cute are those critters blowing bubbles from Bubbles of Joy! The little octopus also has a noisemaker from Party Animal! It’s all in the details!

Ashley stamped the “happy” from Yeti or Not on a Pearlescent Vellum Simple Wavy Banner for an extra touch of shimmer and shine!

Thank you so much, Ashley for being an awesome Guest Designer! Your fantastic scene cards are so inspiring!

There are five more days to create a project for the Birthday Challenge and Joyce is here today with a totally adorable birthday card to inspire you!

Joyce created a super happy birthday party scene with critters from Dandy Day and Really High Five along with party images from Birthday Before ‘n Afters!

To create the cheerful background for the party scene, Joyce added some ink blending in warm colors to the card front. Then she used Puffy Cloud Borders and Grassy Border to define the scene!

Thank you for sharing this happy little mouse party with us today, Joyce!
