Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 89 – Happy Holiday Critters

Hello friends! It’s time to see what our cute critters are up to for the holidays! Our new challenge is Happy Holiday Critters and we would love to see how our little critters are celebrating this holiday season!

We invite you to share your creativity by linking up your crafty projects at the end of this post! Your project should feature Lawn Fawn stamps, dies and papers. This challenge will run for 3 weeks and be open until Sunday, December 6th at 11:59PM ET.

For each challenge, we will randomly select an entry to receive a $25.00 gift certificate to the Lawn Fawn shop! We will also be highlighting a few of your fabulous projects at the close of each challenge! By linking your projects to our challenges you will give permission for us to post your work to this blog and our social media sites. Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

We are so happy to welcome a new Guest Designer for this challenge! Say hello to Valerie Ward! She created an amazing project for this challenge, I know it will inspire you!

Valerie created an awesome tall slimline card, complete with 2 Reveal Wheels! For this card, the little caroling peas are the critters; so cute! She combined images from Peas on Earth, Tiny Christmas, Over the Mountain Borders, Winter Village and many more! Whoever receives this card will certainly have Hap-Pea Holidays!

Valerie used the Reveal Wheel Semicircle Add-On and the Circle Add-On. She added the Mini String of Lights to divide the top section and a Fancy Wavy Banner to divide the the scenes at the bottom. The smallest Puffy Cloud Border made just the right size clouds for Tiny Christmas Santa to fly above!

Thanks so much for creating this amazing inspiration, Valerie!

Now let’s see how our wonderful Design Team was inspired by the challenge theme!

The cute Den Sweet Den bears have traded their forest den for a traditional brick home in the suburbs! Karin‘s design gives you a peek inside the cozy new den with the help of Shut the Front Door!

Christy‘s card features the cute little crab, palm tree and sand castle from Life is Good in a “relaxing” tropical scene! She added festive holiday decorations from Cheery Christmas and Car Critters Christmas Add-On!

Samantha‘s Christmas Fishes critters are excited for the arrival of Santa Claws! Her awesome coloring brings this delightful scene to life!

Jessica created a Zoom meeting for her happy holiday critters! She filled the windows of the Foursquare Backdrop: Landscape with critters from Yeti or Not, Christmas Fishes, Den Sweet Den, Upon a Star and Cheery Christmas! She added holiday fun using Build-A-House Christmas Add-On for the colorful lights and a menorah from Love You a Latke!

Samantha’s Whimsical Christmas Tree Lot!

Hey everyone, Samantha here with a project inspired by the current Oh Christmas Tree challenge! Christmas trees are such an iconic symbol of Christmas. Many families have many traditions surrounding the Christmas tree, and they create the perfect canvas for ornaments and trimmings.

 
I wanted to create a card surrounding the joy and whimsy of Christmas trees. So made a tree farm that is located deep in the snowy mountains. What makes this tree farm fun is that is run by the most joyful and enthusiastic yetis! Once you pick out your tree, they will gently place it on the roof of your car. The Yeti or Not stamp set is one of my most favorite Lawn Fawn sets. The yetis are so fluffy and have the sweetest expressions, and they are a perfect addition to any snowy or holiday scene! 

There is still time to enter your project in the Oh Christmas Tree challenge! It will be open until this Sunday, November 15th at 11:59 PM EST. We look forward to seeing your creation! 

Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you have a wonderful day!
