Karin is with us today to share a super adorable Mice on Ice card for our current challenge, Happy Little Holiday Critters!

Karin used our Lacy Heart Stackables to create the scalloped heart cut out that frames her adorable critter scene! She inked up a pretty sky then die cut it with Snowfall Backdrop: Landscape to make the perfect background!

The cute Mice on Ice are having so much fun in Santa’s sleigh from Ho-Ho-Holidays! I love how Karin always adds pretty design details like the holly and berries from Joy to the Woods! She finished her with a sentiment from Frosty Fairy Friends!

Thanks so much, Karin! Your card is so sweet and such beautiful inspiration!

We hope you will join us for the Happy Little Holiday Critters challenge! It will be open until Sunday, December 15th at 11:59PM ET. We will share more inspiration on Monday! Our Guest Designer, Jane created a card that will make you smile!

Now, here’s some awesome inspiration to get you started!

Jessica‘s gorgeous holiday card features Happy Mail, Mini Wreath and Stitched Snowflakes!

Christy built cute little Christmas scenes using Peekaboo Backdrop and images from Ho-Ho-Holidays, Christmas Dreams, Holiday Helpers and Toboggan Together!

Karin‘s beautiful alcohol inked background is set off behind an Outside In Stitched Heart! Her lovely design includes Scripty Love and a Fancy Wavy Banner with a sentiment from Wavy Sayings!

I love how Samantha incorporated the Ready Set Snow Shaker Add-On in her beautiful Frosty Fairy Friends design!

Caly‘s brilliant design combines two interactive elements with Flippin’ Awesome and Slide on Over! She filled the flip panels with our Village sets!

Samantha carried her adorable Shadow Box Card scene featuring Holiday Helpers all around the outside of the box!

Franci got really clever and used the A Little Sparkle coordinating die to create an adorable little key chain! She stacked together two layers of cardstock around two layers of craft foam! To make the key chain more sturdy you can laminate the cardstock layers!

Joyce combined the cute penguins from Toboggan Together, Snow Cool and Here We Go A-Waddling to create a very merry Flippin’ Awesome card!
