Let’s see how our Design Team was inspired to create with this color board!

Franci crafted a fun Beary Happy Holidays scene using the frosty color palette!

Caly used the pretty berries and boughs, colored in the challenge colors, from Frosty Fairy Friends to recreate the pretty inspiration image!

Karin‘s cute tag features a pair of Winter Narwhals in jaunty scarves!

Joyce used the challenge color palette to color all the images in her Holiday Helpers scene!

Christy used the challenge color palette to create a magical Frosty Fairy Friends card!

Samantha‘s Stitched Mountain scene has lots of Yeti or Not whimsy! How cool is that amazing magenta sky!

Samantha C combined cute images from Snow Cool, Beary Happy Holidays, Critters in the Arctic and Critters in the Snow! She used deep, bold shades of the colors in the inspiration palette and Mini Snowflakes to create a frosty scene!

Jessica was also inspired to create with our Frosty Fairy Friends set! She pulled the pinky red color out of the palette to make it the focal point of her glittery design!

Jenn used the Making Frosty Friends snowman to create an adorable winter greeting! She combined Quinn’s ABCs and Harold’s ABCs to spell out the fun sentiment!

We will share Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 89 tomorrow!

A Super Happy Holiday Critter Card with Christy

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with another card for our Happy Holiday Critters Challenge! I love making scene cards, and I combined so many different sets into this one. I used Beary Happy Holidays, Cheery Christmas, Mice on Ice, Holiday Helpers, Yeti or Not, and Simply Celebrate Winter. I colored all my images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies.


For the background, I used a piece of bokeh paper from the Snow Day Remix 6×6 pad for the sky. I added stitching detail to the edges with the Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables, then added some tree silhouettes with the Stitched Tree Border. Overtop of that, I layered two Stitched Hillside Borders, one glued flat to the card, and the other popped up with foam tape.

I cut out an icy pond using the Bayou Backdrop and heat embossed a little swirl of ice skating tracks from Mice on Ice. I added that to the lower left corner of the card. Then I added my images into the scene with a combo of liquid glue and foam tape.

The little snowman was from Simply Celebrate Winter. I just masked him off from the rest of his friends when stamping and used the dies to cut out most of him, and my Cutter Bee scissors to trim down the rest.


To finish things off, I added a sentiment stamped in Bubblegum Ink and trimmed out with an Everyday Sentiment Banner, and a bit of Stardust Stickles for a little sparkle.

I also finished off the inside using Simply Celebrate Winter, which you can check out in the video tutorial on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty.

The Happy Holiday Critters challenge will be open until Sunday December 6 at 11:59PM ET. We hope you will join us!

Thank you so much for sharing with us today, Christy!
