Let’s see how our talented Design Team was inspired by Spring!

Gardening is a fun Spring activity and Samantha has the Some Bunny critters hard at work! For the background she combined Meadow Borders and Stitched Garden Border with pastel Shimmer and Gold Rush cardstock!

Christy‘s sunny design combines Happy Village with some Tiny Friends! She created a cheery scene on a Stitched Circle layered with a Scalloped Circle! All the pretty patterned papers add to the fun!

Joyce paired a Spring Critter Hugger with our new Build-A-Basket: Easter! She filled the basket with beautifully colored carrots from Stitched Garden Border!

Caly‘s card recreates one of the images from the Inspiration Board with a combination of Stitched Sun Frame and Cattails Border! You can almost feel the warmth of this smiling shaker sun!

For her circle shaped card, Karin created a sweet little scene using Dandy Day mice and a pretty Spring tree from Tree Before ‘n Afters.

Samantha‘s card is adorable and perfect for Father’s Day! She used Stitched Pond and Sandy Beach Accents to create a for the cute ducks from Rub-A-Dub-Dub to swim! I love the how she included the little “duck” from Easter Party, it adds lots of fun and whimsy!

Jessica also used the little Rub-A-Dub-Dub ducks for her charming Spring shower card! She kept it clean and simple with the look of water made with alcohol ink!

Franci‘s Spring Critter Huggers are whimsical focal points for her pretty pastel cards! Filled with candy they are perfect for Easter or Spring party favors!

Jenn‘s beautiful card makes me think of brisk breezy Spring days! It features Yay, Kites and ombré inked Louie’s ABCs on a background of stenciled fluffy clouds!

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 97 – Inspired by a Book, Movie or Song tomorrow!

The Cutest Rainy Day with Samantha

Samantha‘s Rub-A-Dub-Dub ducks are enjoying the cutest rainy day! It’s adorable inspiration for our What’s the Weather challenge!

Samantha created a sweet card featuring the Rub-A-Dub-Dub ducks playing in a puddle on a rainy day! I love that they are using the Dandy Day dandelion flowers as umbrellas, that is just too cute!

To set the scene she started with Rainy Backdrop: Landscape and Mushroom Border. Then she added clouds and grass from Meadow Backdrop: Portrait and finished with a sweet and scripty Hello Border greeting!

Thank you for this adorable inspiration today, Samantha!

The What’s the Weather challenge will be open until Sunday, February 14 at 11:59PM ET so you still have time to get your weather-themed entries added to the challenge gallery. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend! Hope it’s filled with lots of crafty fun!

Awesome Autumn Inspiration with Samantha!

Samantha is here today to share an awesome slimline card for our new Awesome Autumn challenge! She created a long scene for a long sentiment!

Samantha used Large Slimline with Sliders to die cut a tall panel and blended Distress Oxide inks in Tumbled Glass, Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers. She added some dimension by sprinkling water to react with the oxide ink to leave random droplets.

She stamped and colored with Zig markers images from Into the Woods, Dandy Day, Really High Five, Super Star, A Bug Deal, You’re Just My Type and Love Poems. She arranged the images and attached them with foam tape.

The timely sentiment was white embossed on Black Licorice cardstock using Harold’s ABCs. Samantha trimmed the words into strips and popped them up on the card with foam tape. As a finishing touch, she added a bit of sparkle to the acorns with Prisma glitter!

Thanks so much for inspiring us today, Samantha!

We hope you are enjoying the change of season’s! Happy crafting!
