Let’s see what our amazing Design Team created to inspire us!

Jessica added just a bit of inking to give the suggestion of blue sky! Then she assembled a cute sun and clouds from Spring Showers and a glittery gold Scripty Hello to complete this simply adorable design!

Joyce put the focus on the sweet images and sentiment from Let’s Toast! She framed the little vignette with some hearts and a Fancy Scalloped Rectangle. So cute!

Samantha started with a column of blue watercolor, adding some stenciled stars over the top. Then she brought in a few images from All the Clouds to fill the sky! Her sentiment is a combination from Rain or Shine Before ‘n Afters and All the Clouds.

Caly used the “white space” to create a window with Outside In Stitched Circle Stackables. She filled the window with some tropical leaves stenciling and a cute critter from Hang in There!

Christy‘s sweet design proves that the open space can be any color! She combined Happy Hugs with Giant Sending Big Hugs, layering them on a Quilted Heart Backdrop! The peachy colors are so lovely!

Franci used images from Eggstra Special Easter, colored in bright, happy colors! She added just a little ink blending to define the space then stamped the sentiments in pretty pastel ink colors to create two beautiful clean and simple cards!

Karin created layers of Quilted Heart Backdrop, Lacy Heart Stackables and Fancy Scalloped Rectangle in white. Then she added special detail with a beautifully inked Giant XOXO and Car Critters Christmas Add-On cuties!

Samantha started her clean and simple design with a panel of patterned paper from Really Rainbow! Then she layered two Selfie Frames, filling one with a cute scene that features Bugs and Kisses, and A Bug Deal images! She kept this really simple by using Watercolor Wishes Rainbow paper to fill the background in the frames.

Our favorite mermaid is definitely dreaming of beach weather with this simply beautiful Mermaid for You card! Jenn included images from So Jelly and letters from Owen’s ABCs to complete her design!

We will share more Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 117 – Lots of Heart tomorrow! Now it’s time for you to get creative!

We will also be highlighting a few of your fabulous projects at the close of each challenge!

Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

We are so happy to welcome a super talented Guest Designer for this challenge! Say hello to Nancy van Oosten! You know her as @creastudionancy on Instagram and we are sure her amazing creativity has wowed and inspired you! You can also find her creativity at her blog and YouTube channel.

Nancy created a magical scene with a gorgeous color palette featuring Gnome Sweet Gnome, A Bug Deal and Fairy Friends! She filled out the landscape with Stitched Tree Borders and Mushroom Border! I love how she called attention to the Lucky Stars sentiment by framing it with the Stitched Rainbow! So very clever!


Now let’s check out some beautiful inspiration by our amazing Design Team!

Joyce filled this super happy card with lots of creative fun! She used Oliver’s Stitched ABCs to spell out part of the greeting, replacing the i with the cute jumping bunny from Really High Five!

Samantha‘s pretty card features lots of fun dies and one adorable little ant from Crazy Antics! This design has a Fancy Lattice Backdrop in neutral cardstock colors of Kraft and Paper Bag. The Scripty Hello and Stitched Speech Bubble Frame are cut from Vanilla Malt cardstock to continue the neutral colors. Samantha backed the speech bubble with vellum to allow the greeting to stand out!

It doesn’t get much more charming than Franci‘s Dandy Day design! She spelled out “hello” with Finley’s ABCs die cuts and framed it all with a Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame!

Christy‘s Scripty Hugs greeting blends seamlessly into the inky background of her amazing Ocean Shell-fie card! She used Large Slimline Sliders and Slimline Stitched Hillside Borders to create this long underwater scene! I love how she combined a sweet sentiment from Mom + Me with the die cut word!

Karin‘s delightful design uses a fun image from Fortune Teller Tabby that calls attention to the sentiment! Her beautiful inky background and die cut stars add to the mysterious look of this beautiful card!

Caly‘s joyful design combines Happy Village with Village Heroes in a slimline design on a stenciled cloud backdrop! The charming greeting is a combination of Scripty Sweet and Oliver’s Stitched ABCs.

Samantha‘s awesome Halloween design spells out BOO using Oliver’s Stitched ABCs! I love how she dressed the letters up with in costumes from Booyah! To make the cool background she used the inside part from a Stitched Cloud Frame as a mask to do some fantastic ink blending!

Jessica created a custom greeting from an inspirational quote! She spelled it out with Finley’s ABCs dies and Milo’s ABCs white heat-embossed on the cool galaxy backdrop! The Out of This World and Upon a Star images add lots of cuteness to this special card!

Jenn‘s cards are filled with bold, bright colors from alcohol inks! The beautiful design features a simple die cut hello that is found in the Magic Color Slider die set.

We will share Design Team inspiration for you over the next 3 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 82 tomorrow!
