Our awesome Design Team has some fantastic Cards for Kids inspiration for you!

Samantha‘s colorful birthday card features You’re Claw-some! The bear from Critter Concert is a perfect fit for her scene, after some fussy cutting to remove his trumpet! He looks like he’s having lots of luck with the claw machine!

Christy created her amazing birthday card on a panel of Spiffy Speckles paper die cut with the Sunburst Backdrop. She arranged colorful animals from Critters on the Savanna and Wild for You around the Magic Messages greeting!

Joyce‘s card is perfect for a fairytale-loving kid! She created a castle in the clouds with Build-A-Castle and Puffy Cloud Backdrop: Portrait! The Unicorn Picnic critters and fairies look right at home in this happy scene!

Karin‘s kid-friendly birthday card features Village Heroes in a clean and simple grid design!

Franci‘s design features the cute mice of Bubbles of Joy and the Bubble Border to create a sweet card! It is perfect for sending a Scripty Bubble Sentiments “smile” to brighten the day a child!

What could be better than a rainbow chameleon on a kid’s birthday card? Samantha created an inky Stitched Rainbow and added it to layered Shimmer cardstock Zig Zag Squares!

Caly‘s all die cut card is delightful! She inked up the ice cream scoops from I Scream, You Scream in cheery colors and added sweet smiling faces! A cherry on top is the perfect detail. She finished her card with Scripty Sweet and layered everything on a Quilted Backdrop!

Jessica created a modified Center Picture Window Card with Puffy Cloud Borders to create an awesome graduation card! She used Upon a Star for the critter, Simply Celebrate Spring for the cap and So Jelly for the perfect message!

Jenn‘s charming birthday design features the Wild for You lion! He pops against the watercolor Salvaged Patina Distress background! She gave this card a happy vibe with balloons from Bicycle Built for You and a Happy Happy Happy greeting!

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 99 – Create a Scene tomorrow!

Kara’s Amazing Pop-Up Birthday Card!

Our wonderful and talented Guest Designer Kara is back to share another amazing card project for the Spectacular Skies challenge! Her Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up has some hidden interactive elements that make it so extra special!

Kara added some movement using the Let’s Toast Pull-Tab Add-On to the background! The little plane and banner are from the Simply Celebrate Spring set and the tiny little fairy “pilot” is found in the A Little Sparkle set!

She also added another interactive element to flip up the second banner from the clouds! Check out the video tutorial at Kara’s YouTube channel to see how she made this work!

Kara added fun little scenes on the box flaps! Her coloring is so amazing with so much wonderful detail! Be sure to check out the supply list below for all the stamp and die sets she combined to make this super fun card!

The outside of the box is perfectly plain and so cute with Cloudy Hillside Pop-Up Add-On clouds and a simple greeting from our Speech Bubbles die set! All the fun happening on the inside of this card will be such an awesome surprise!

Thank you so much, Kara! We are so happy that you joined us as our Guest Designer for this challenge! Your cards have been so creative and totally inspiring!

Our Spectacular Skies challenge will continue through Sunday, June 2 at 11:59PM ET. We can’t wait to see where your creativity takes you!
