Adorable Happy Holiday Critters Inspiration with our Guest Designer Valerie

Our Happy Holiday Critters challenge has one more week until the gallery closes! We are so impressed with all the great entries so far! We hope you will check out all the amazing inspiration and join the fun!

Today we are happy to share another fantastic Happy Holiday Critters card by our Guest Designer Valerie!

This tall slimline design is perfect for Valerie’s multi-layered Winter Village scene! It is complete with adorable yetis snowboarding and enjoying frosty treats!

Using a combination of Stitched Hillside Borders and Simple Stitched Hillside Borders, all cut from Pixie Dust Sparkle cardstock, Valerie was able to create the look of a charming winter village on a snow-covered mountainside!

I love that Valerie added a fun interactive element by creating a slider for the cool snowboarding yeti!

Valerie included the Tiny Christmas Santa with the sleigh and reindeer from Over the Mountain Borders at the top! She used two patterns from the Into the Woods Remix collection: the clouds of Spruce Remix and the happy orange stripes of Oak Remix!

Thank you so much for joining us for this challenge, Valerie! We loved sharing your amazing cards; your creativity totally inspired us!

Happy crafting to all of our Fawnatics friends!

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!
