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

Grace created a stack of adorable critters precariously balancing their Fintastic Friend on top! This inventive card has lots of movement as the images are attached to a hidden clear thread, making it look as though the stack is swaying back and forth. Be sure to check out Grace’s Instagram to see this card in action!

Samantha M used the windows in Peekaboo Backdrop to make cute little scenes featuring the Happy Howloween pups celebrating a very adorable birthday!

Karin‘s delightful design features a cute couple of dogs from our Critters at the Dog Park set! The wedding attire is found in Bicycle Built for You!

I “wheelie” like Samantha C‘s adorable card starring our little hamster from Wheelie Like You! The rainbow colors add to the charm of this sweet card!

Jessica used a pair of Meow You Doin’ kitties to make this charming card! The sweet little scene is backed by a pretty white on white Fancy Lattice Backdrop!

Franci did a great job of combining old and new on this super cute Shadow Box Card! She used the new Shadow Box Card Park Add-On to create a fun scene for the Critters in the ‘Burbs cat and bunny!

Christy‘s inspiration for her sweet card is her adorable new puppy, Gemma! She used images from Critters at the Dog Park on the custom background and created a cute scene on a Fancy Scalloped Circle using Holiday Helpers and the puppy from Bicycle Built for You!

Who says farm animals can’t be pets? Certainly not Joyce who made this totally fun birthday card featuring the Hay There critters! Her fun scene includes a Leafy Tree Backdrop and the Spooky Fence Border!

Jenn used Meow You Doin’ to depict her 3 favorite kitties! Mr. Harley is overseeing the festivities while Gus stretches and Jac juggles a fish!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll share our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 51 tomorrow!

We’d love for you to tell us about your pets in the comments below! I’m a dog-lover with a couple of senior ladies. Coco is a Golden Retriever and Marty is a golden colored Chiweinie! They are my golden girls!

Happy Crafting from your friends at Lawn Fawnatics!
