Now we have a super awesome announcement! We are so excited to welcome Grace Camou to our Design Team! Her amazing cards and crafty projects have been inspiring and impressing us for a while and we are so happy to have her on the team! To learn more about Grace and the rest of our wonderful designers check out the Design Team Page!

Grace created an amazing and Toadally Awesome scene with a super fun twist! She altered the Let’s Toast Pull Tab Add-On to add 2 extra tabs to give all 3 of her cute critters movement!

When the tab is pulled, 2 frogs jump down while the one in the middle pops up! This beautiful scene is all sorts of gorgeous in pretty pastel colors!

Here’s a quick peek at the modifications that Grace used to create her brilliant interactive card!

And now let’s introduce our Guest Designer for this challenge! We are so happy to have Ildi Imrefalvi share her amazing creativity with us! You will find her on Instagram as hellopilda, give her a follow, you will be inspired!

Ildi created a super cute and festive birthday card with our Party Animal critters and their friend from Holiday Party Animal! How cute are those Pick of the Patch squirrels holding the Celebrate Border!

Ildi added fun detail to her fabulous card with a stamped a backdrop using a sentiment from our Let’s Play set! The little sailboat is from Rub-A-Dub-Dub and the pile of presents are found in our Baaah Humbug and Christmas Dreams sets.

Now let’s see what our amazing Design Team has made created to inspire us!

Jessica‘s beautiful card features Elphie Selfie and Selfie Frames on a sweet Polka Heart Backdrop! She created the custom sentiment by combining the greeting in Elphie Selfie with one from Sweet Friends!

Joyce made a sunshine-y card with the Jump for Joy critters in a whimsical scene that includes Sweet Friends treats and the Thanks a Latte coffee mug!

Samantha C gathered a happy group of elephants from Elphie Selfie and Wild for You to celebrate the cute little mouse’s birthday! She added party fun to her adorable card using Itsy Bitsy Polka Dot Backdrop and Bunting Borders!

I love how Christy combined old and new sets to create this brilliant “down under” inspired card! The koala is brand new from our I Love You(calyptus) mini set and she set the scene using stamps from Critters Down Under!

Karin‘s charming card starts with Quilted Backdrop and a Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame with a Mini Picture Frame in a cheery white on white design! It’s the perfect setting for cute Rub-A-Dub-Dub ducklings to frolic! She included a greeting from Tiny Tag Sayings that fits perfectly in the mini frame!

Say What? Christmas Critters sure are a bunch of happy little critters on Franci‘s brilliant card! The fun greetings and speech bubbles are included in this fun set too! I love how she arranged these little cuties!

Samantha‘s underwater birthday scene is so amazing! It features You Are Sublime with a sentiment from Fintastic Friends and party hats and balloon from Party Animal!

The party fun continues on the inside with our Critters in the Sea whale popped up using Everyday Pop-Ups dies! Ocean Wave Borders add ocean detail to the top of the scene!

Jenn‘s Critter Concert critters are creating a symphony of rainbow color for her watercolor gem! Little Music Notes and Thank You Border round out this fabulous card design! Be sure to check out Jenn’s updated class schedule to find where she will be teaching Lawn Fawn cardmaking classes this Spring!

Samantha‘s super cool snow-globe card features Ready Set Snow in a fun and unique design! The Christmas greeting is found in our Say What? Christmas Critters set!

Joyce created a fun card with the cute bear in a sleigh from our Oh What Fun set! I love the gift packages tumbling out behind the sleigh, it’s such an adorable detail!

Jessica‘s sweet Stitched Circle Tag features a cute knitting sheep from Baaah Humbug along with a punny sentiment from the same set!

Franci‘s charming scene combines the cute critters bums from For You, Deer with the row of trees from Simply Celebrate Winter! She added a happy greeting from Snow Day!

Franci was so inspired she made a second card for this challenge! This one features our trumpet playing bear from Critter Concert! He’s playing in a Christmas concert on a stage created using our Shadow Box Card and the Shadow Box Card Theater Add-On!

Karin combined Oh What Fun with a Winter Village tree and the cute little village from Ready Set Snow with a gorgeous snowy night sky! She finished her card with a Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame!

Christy bright and happy card features Winter Unicorn frolicking in some Puffy Cloud Borders with the cute unicorn from our special (no longer available) Black Friday gift set “A Little Sparkle”! The candy cane stripes add some whimsy and create a frame for the scene using a Reverse Stitched Scalloped Square Window!

The Toboggan Together deer play nicely with the cute little deer from Say What? Christmas Critters on Samantha‘s delightful card! Her greeting combines sentiments from both of the stamp sets!
