Samantha’s Whimsical Spectacular Sky!

Be sure to link up your Spectacular Skies projects HERE. This challenge will be open until Sunday, October 17th at 11:59PM ET.

Samantha C created the cutest, most whimsical inspiration for you today!

Samantha used leaves and branches from A Bug Deal and Hey Lady to create a fun design! She placed the little worm from A Bug Deal on one of the leaves and gave him an apple from So Owlsome!

She colored the leaves to match the leaves in the inspiration photo and used Mint Sprinkle ‘n Shine paper for the blue sky! I love the Spring Showers clouds, they are cut from vellum to add just a hint texture in the background!

Thanks so much for this sweet inspiration, Samantha!

A Den Sweet Den Card with Ivy!

- Nancy Krueger 3 Comments

Today we are sharing a charming card from Ivy, one of Fawnies from Lawn Fawn HQ! She took some time out from packing Fall & Winter 2020 orders to create a super cute window card as inspiration for the Back to School challenge! This challenge will be open for one more week and will close at 11:59PM ET on Sunday September 20. We hope you will join us!



The new set Den Sweet Den has cute bears and books that are perfect for creating a fun learn at home scene! Ivy used the Stitched Dens die set to create a window card, with a peek inside the bears’ den!

The cute 3D apple that Ivy used a photo prop was crafted with Outside In Stitched Apple Stackables!

To round out this adorable scene, Ivy borrowed the tree stump from Forest Feast and some apples from So Owlsome and Thanks A Bushel! The “wall art” is the Reveal Wheel Square Window Add-On with a hanger from Mini Picture Frames. The cute bee is from Meadow Backdrop: Portrait, so clever and cute!

Ivy continued the scene on the card front with another bear and stack of books both from Den Sweet Den. The Thanks Teacher Line Border is the perfect sentiment to thank a dedicated teacher!

Thanks for sharing this fun window card with us today, Ivy!

Samantha’s Adorable Woodland Classroom!

- Nancy Krueger 4 Comments

Hey everyone, Samantha here with a card that is inspired by the current Back to School challenge! I always loved the beginning of the school year. It was so much fun to get new supplies and find out what friends were in your classes. Another reason why it is so great is that fall is right around the corner!

I created a fun woodland scene with the most adorable critters. The classroom is on a large stump, from the Forest Feast stamp set, and the owl teacher is joyfully welcoming the new students. The teacher’s outdoor classroom is full of books, a fun banner, and a chalkboard.

I created a small chalkboard by hand cutting small two rectangles layering them together. I didn’t have to worry about having a perfect frame all the way around the base rectangle, because the tree branches would cover the sides. Then I layered a small strip of cardstock on top of the rectangles for the chalk holder. The hello, from the Speech Bubbles set, was the prefect size for a welcoming message on the chalkboard!

You still have time to enter this super fun challenge! The Back to School challenge is open until Sunday, September 20 at 11:59 EST. It is always so amazing to see all of the creative projects that are submitted! 

Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day!


This sweet card is so inspiring! Thanks so much for sharing with us today, Samantha!
