Mayra has amazing creativity for you today inspired by “Too Many Carrots” a children’s book by Katy Hudson! She created two cards, including a Ta-Da! Diorama!, that are so perfect for Spring crafting!


Mayra started with a fun Ta-Da! Diorama! featuring the cute Build-A-Bunny in black and white like the main character in the story. She filled the front of the card with “too many carrots” from Build-A-Bunny Accessories, Tiny Gift Box Bunny Add-On, Stitched Garden Border and more.


Inside the diorama, Mayra filled the scene with a large cast of characters from Some Bunny, Wood You Be Mine, Pick of the Patch and too many more to list. Please see the supply list below for all the sets Mayra used.


And she made an additional card with more scenes from the book! Here she used Peekaboo Backdrop with critters from Get Well Before ‘n Afters, Really High Five and birds from Let’s Play! And of course, more carrots!

Thank you so much for this delightful inspiration, Mayra!

We are so happy to have a very talented Guest Designer joining us for this challenge! Say hello to Ashley Young! Her whimsical scene cards always make us smile and we know she will inspire you too!

Ashley‘s slimline scene features an amusement park filled with happy Tiny Friends! She used Coaster Critters images to set the scene along with the castle from Life is Good! A couple of princesses from Tiny Fairy Tale look right at home!

The “magical” greeting looks amazing with Chunky Glitter adding lots of sparkle! She combined the Finley’s ABCs with a sentiment from Unicorn Picnic!

Now let’s check out some inspiration from our very own experts in “creating scenes”, our wonderful Design Team!

Karin‘s fantastic scene features our cute Wild for You critters enjoying the nightlife with a fruity beverage! She created a silhouette with the Tropical Backdrop and Little Town Border filling the night sky with lots of stars!

Christy gathered some cute critters to do some gardening! She started with Some Bunny for all the gardening images, then added friends from Jump for Joy and Crazy Antics! She filled in the background with Grassy Border. I love how she used the “chip bag” from Crazy Antics to create seed packets, that is just so clever!

Samantha‘s kitchen scene starts with combining the Sprinkled with Joy stove with “cabinets” made using You’re Just My Type! Then she added lots of mice and yummy baked goods from A Creature Was Stirring and Bubbles of Joy! She used Spring Sparkle and Textured Dot Pastel cardstock for the background and finished the card with You’re Sweet Line Border!

Joyce set the scene for her Virtual Friends design with a patterned paper wall and White Woodgrain cardstock floor! She added cute details to her scene using books and the lamp from Den Sweet Den. While the cat from Keep on Swimming is celebrating a birthday with friends online his cute puffer fish is sending birthday greetings from his fish bowl!

Warm weather is coming so Samantha created an amazing beach scene! She filled the sunny sky with some puffy clouds from All the Clouds then she added waves and the sand with layers of Stitched Hillside Borders for the On the Beach fox and a rainbow colored umbrella!

Sometimes an amazing scene doesn’t need lots of scene building dies! Franci assembled whimsical images from Fox Costumes Before ‘n Afters with Baked with Love and Unicorn Picnic for maximum cuteness in her clean and simple style!

Jessica used Puffy Cloud Backdrop: Portrait to build this happy scene! The lovely pastel colors of the clouds are carried throughout the Bubbles of Joy bubbles and Scripty Bubble Sentiments! She added a sentiment from Thanks a Bushel as a finish for her adorable thank you card!

Caly stenciled pretty clouds using the Cloudy Stencil and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide ink. Then she tinted the hills of the Stitched Hillside Backdrop: Landscape with Mowed Lawn. This sweet scene comes together with images from Butterfly Kisses and Butterfly Kisses Flip-Flop!

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 98 – Happy Spring tomorrow!

Gardening is a fun Spring activity and Samantha has the Some Bunny critters hard at work! For the background she combined Meadow Borders and Stitched Garden Border with pastel Shimmer and Gold Rush cardstock!

Christy‘s sunny design combines Happy Village with some Tiny Friends! She created a cheery scene on a Stitched Circle layered with a Scalloped Circle! All the pretty patterned papers add to the fun!

Joyce paired a Spring Critter Hugger with our new Build-A-Basket: Easter! She filled the basket with beautifully colored carrots from Stitched Garden Border!

Caly‘s card recreates one of the images from the Inspiration Board with a combination of Stitched Sun Frame and Cattails Border! You can almost feel the warmth of this smiling shaker sun!

For her circle shaped card, Karin created a sweet little scene using Dandy Day mice and a pretty Spring tree from Tree Before ‘n Afters.

Samantha‘s card is adorable and perfect for Father’s Day! She used Stitched Pond and Sandy Beach Accents to create a for the cute ducks from Rub-A-Dub-Dub to swim! I love the how she included the little “duck” from Easter Party, it adds lots of fun and whimsy!

Jessica also used the little Rub-A-Dub-Dub ducks for her charming Spring shower card! She kept it clean and simple with the look of water made with alcohol ink!

Franci‘s Spring Critter Huggers are whimsical focal points for her pretty pastel cards! Filled with candy they are perfect for Easter or Spring party favors!

Jenn‘s beautiful card makes me think of brisk breezy Spring days! It features Yay, Kites and ombré inked Louie’s ABCs on a background of stenciled fluffy clouds!
