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.

Mimi’s Give It a Whirl Birthday Cake!

Mimi‘s clever Give It a Whirl card shows a top view of a birthday cake decorated with frosting and confetti! Whirl the tab and a slice is missing! Yummy!

Be sure to check out the Intro to Give It a Whirl video for quick and easy assembly instructions and more ideas!


Mimi used flower dies from Tiny Gift Box Bunny Add-On and Woodland Critter Huggers Summer Add-On to make the frosting rosettes. She cut the larger flower from Woodland Critters Huggers Summer Add-On first, then she cut the flower with the one from Tiny Gift Box Bunny Add-On to give the smaller flower a swirly effect. That is so clever!

Since Mimi decorated the top circle of the “cake” with die cuts, she has a couple tips for making the interactive mechanism move smoothly. She suggests running the decorated circle through the die cut machine a few times to flatten the die cuts. Then she added lots of anti-static powder to cut down on friction. We recommend EK Success Powder Tool for this.


After you “give it a whirl”, part of the “cake” missing with only crumbs, confetti and the cake server are left. The confetti dots are circles from Spring Sprig and Pop-Up Desk. And the “cake server” is a garden tool from Watering Can.


Mimi found the perfect sentiment in Birthday Before ‘n Afters. She stamped it on “banners” made from the Build-An-Aquarium die set. The Happy Birthday on the cake is from Offset Sayings: Birthday.

This card is so brilliant, Mimi! Thank you for sharing it with us!
