Catherine has some amazing inspiration for us today! Three favorite Sesame Street characters inspired her to make this bright and happy birthday card! She began her card with Really Rainbow and Rainbow Ever After papers in the background. Then she combined Louie’s ABCs, Harold’s ABCs and sentiments from Holiday Party Animal and How You Bean Christmas Cookie Add-On for the clever greeting!


Catherine gathered Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch and Elmo together to create this fun card design! Oscar even has his trash can (made with the jar, trimmed to be straight sided, from How You Bean and How You Bean Add-On) and there’s also a cookie for Cookie Monster! Elmo is holding the iconic street sign with sentiments from Simply Sentiments and Scent with Love Add-On! The sign is a combination of Speech Bubbles and Circle Stackables. And she added Party Balloons to add lots of fun to this special birthday card!


To recreate each of the characters, Catherine provided charts with all the components! The characters start with the Tiny Gift Box Skunk Add-On, then she personalized each one.

Design Team Inspiration


Catherine assembled lots of cute critters to illustrate a happy Winnie the Pooh scene! Pooh bear is played by Little Snow Globe: Bear. Piglet is from Tiny Farm, Roo is from Kanga-rrific, Rabbit is from Eggstra Amazing Easter and Owl is from S’more the Merrier!


Inspired by the back cover of Little Golden Books, Christy combined a bunch of woodland critters sets to create a lovely birthday card! She used Porcu-pine for You, Scent with Love, Let’s Go Nuts, Wood You Be Mine, Critters in the Arctic and A Bug Deal.


Mimi‘s design is so clever, inspired by The Super Mario Bros Movie! As always, Mimi likes to shop her stash to create lookalike characters! Here’s the list of sets she used:
Mario/Luigi
Ugly and Bright -bear (masked bear nose/mouth), letters L,M on cap
Little Bundle -overalls
Special Delivery -cap
Dad + Me – mustache on Mario, sentiment
Thanks a Latte – mustache for Luigi
Costume Party -jack’o lantern eyes for eyebrows
Toads
On the Beach -coconut drink for cap
Tiny Friends – ‘mom’
You Are Sublime -circles on cap from submarine
Mushrooms
Oh Gnome!
Porcu-Pine For You


Franci combined Veggie Happy and Eggstra Amazing Easter to create a card inspired by Peter Rabbit!


Samantha created a sweet design inspired by Alice in Wonderland! She filled her scene with images from Bicycle Built for You, Tea-rrific Day and Tea-rrific Day Add-On. She also used Oh Gnome, Meadow Backdrop: Portrait and Spring Showers!


Joyce was inspired by the movie “You’ve Got Mail”, where Tom Hanks’ character Joe Fox and his dog Brinkley have just received an e-mail from Meg Ryan’s Kathleen Kelly. She used images from Virtual Friends and Virtual Friends Add-On. She also added to her scene with Screen Time, Yappy Birthday, You’re Just My Type, Den Sweet Den, Special Delivery and Love Letters.


This interesting design by Karin was inspired by a favorite book she read last year: Charlotte McConaghy’s Once There Were Wolves about Inti who wants to save the wolves and care for her younger sister Aggie. The sisters are both glad they are “in the same pack. She illustrated the theme using Wild Wolves and Lift the Flap Tree Backdrop.


Samantha was inspired by her all-time favorite book series: A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas. She used Cloudy Stencil, Stitched Mountain Borders to illustrate her theme. Then she used Milo’s ABCs to add a quote.


Jenn‘s super sweet card is inspired by Strawberry Shortcake! She used Outside In Stitched Strawberry and Strawberry Patch along with Berry Special and Meow You Doin’. She made the sentiment with Finley’s ABCs and Riley’s ABCs, then she assembled everything on water-color clouds using Cloud Background Stencil.

We will have more Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song Design Team inspiration right here over the next 2 weeksBe sure to come back tomorrow when we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 168 – All Things Birthday!
