We are so excited to have a wonderfully talented Guest Designer join us for this challenge! Help us welcome, Jane! She shares her amazing creativity on Instagram as papercraft4fun!

Jane combined the Reveal Wheel with Build-A-House and the Christmas Add-On to make a brilliant tree house! The woodland owls, birds and squirrels are joining forces to deck it out for the holidays!

Woodgrain cardstock is a perfect idea for the “tree trunk”, door and windows. The bright colored Christmas lights and Chunky Glitter add a fun festive look to Jane‘s wonderful interactive holiday card!

Joyce‘s charming card shows that any critter can be a holiday critter! She added a Santa hat to our cute chameleon and he’s ready to star in her beautiful clean and simple design! The pretty greeting is from Toboggan Together.

Karin‘s beautifully framed little scene features the penguins from Here We Go A-Waddling!

The Beary Happy Holidays bears are very happy critters in Samantha‘s adorable card design! They are using great teamwork to decorate the tree with golden fish! Happy Holidays Line Border and Mini Snowflakes add lots of sparkle die cut from Pixie Dust cardstock!

Christy‘s coloring gives the cute Snow Cool critters a sweet vintage style! They are a great addition to the Snow Day Remix scene in the background!

Jessica‘s cute aquatic critters are celebrating on the shore and in the water! I love how she combined Christmas Fishes with Here We Go A-Waddling!

Franci‘s cute hedgies are trimming the Christmas Dreams tree wearing cute Santa hats from Baaah Humbug! She combined the greeting from Hedgehugs with colorful Offset Sayings: Christmas!

Samantha‘s whimsical scene brings new meaning to the term “reindeer games”! The Toboggan Together deer have set up their Screen Time games among the Critters in the Forest trees! I would say these are some very happy little holiday critters!

The Mice on Ice are always happy to be skating together! Caly‘s Shadow Box Card uses the Mountain Add-On to create a fun Winter wonderland for them!

Card Sketch Challenge Inspiration with Samantha M!

Samantha is here today to share some super fun inspiration for our Card Sketch challenge!

Samantha started by stamping and coloring the images from Mice on Ice and the trees from Yeti Set Go with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers before fussy cutting them out!

For the sketch, Samantha first turned the sketch upside down and used the Stitched Pond as the rectangle element! She used Distress ink in Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon for the cool blended colors! She placed the trees and the jumping mouse along the edge of the pond to represent the banner, so clever!

The main greeting is found in Ho-Ho-Holidays which is white embossed on Black Licorice cardstock. Samantha added a cute speech bubble from Say What? Pets as the circle element, with a message from Oh What Fun! To stack the sentiment to fit in the speech bubble, Samantha masked each word before stamping on vellum. Then she embossed the speech bubble and sentiment using clear embossing powder.

Thank for sharing this adorable inspiration with us today, Samantha!

The Card Sketch Challenge will be open until Sunday, November 3 at 11:59PM ET. We hope you will join us!
