A Beautiful Winter Scene with Ildi!

- Nancy Krueger 5 Comments

Today we have a gorgeous card by our Guest Designer to share with you! Ildi (@hellopilda) is so talented, she creates wonderful scenes for her cards! Her use of color is amazing too! This card is perfect inspiration for our Happy Little Critters challenge. This challenge will be open until Sunday January 20th at 11:59PM ET. We hope you will join us!

This happy card design combines several sets in 3 super cute vignettes all combined in one scene! The bunnies from Happy Easter are hanging out with the snowman from Making Frosty Friends! Winter Bunny is sledding with the cute squirrel from Joy to the Woods and in the background there’s a charming village created using Simply Celebrate Winter and the trees from Sweet Christmas!

Ildi’s beautiful coloring adds so much dimension, fun and detail to all the images, especially the little critters!

Thank you so much, Ildi! We have enjoyed having you as our Guest Designer and sharing your amazing creativity!

Supplies:


Have an awesome week, Fawnatics friends!

Now we have some fabulous inspiration for you from our wonderful Lawn Fawnatics Design Team!

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!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and of course we’ll share our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 41 tomorrow!
