Let’s see what our wonderful Design Team was inspired to create!

Jessica was inspired to create an alcohol inked background with the look of cool water! Those pops of red from Happy Hibiscus are so stunning!

Samantha‘s sweet scene uses the inspiration photo as a starry sky! She combined the Den Sweet Den bears with stars and a telescope from Super Star then she grounded the scene with a large cloud from Unicorn Picnic!

Christy‘s Toadally Awesome birthday card is a total delight! She incorporated the colors of the inspiration photo in the Simple Stripes: Landscape background!

Gorgeous alcohol inking creates the perfect backdrop for Caly‘s Christmas Fishes design!

Joyce brightened up the inspiration colors for her whimsical underwater scene! She used Slimline Tropical Leaves Border to create a fun environment for the mermaid, Duh-nuh shark and Ahoy Matey treasure chest!

Karin was inspired to create an amazing birthday card! She layered a gold metallic Giant Happy Birthday greeting over an alcohol inked background; the gold flecks bring it together! She finished the card with some happy toucans!

Samantha inked up a charming underwater scene for the little critters from I Like You (a lotl)! She added cool details to the water using Bubbles Stencil!

Jenn‘s colorful mermaids are waving hello on a gorgeous alcohol-inked backdrop!

Awesome Autumn Inspiration with Samantha!

Samantha is here today to share an awesome slimline card for our new Awesome Autumn challenge! She created a long scene for a long sentiment!

Samantha used Large Slimline with Sliders to die cut a tall panel and blended Distress Oxide inks in Tumbled Glass, Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers. She added some dimension by sprinkling water to react with the oxide ink to leave random droplets.

She stamped and colored with Zig markers images from Into the Woods, Dandy Day, Really High Five, Super Star, A Bug Deal, You’re Just My Type and Love Poems. She arranged the images and attached them with foam tape.

The timely sentiment was white embossed on Black Licorice cardstock using Harold’s ABCs. Samantha trimmed the words into strips and popped them up on the card with foam tape. As a finishing touch, she added a bit of sparkle to the acorns with Prisma glitter!

Thanks so much for inspiring us today, Samantha!

We hope you are enjoying the change of season’s! Happy crafting!
