Build-A-Critter Bug Costumes

Grace‘s Build-A-Bunny is dressed up in the ladybug costume from Build-A-Critter Bug Costumes and it’s just so sweet! She framed her card with a Reverse Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Window before filling it with Big Blossom Flowers and bugs from Ladybug and Leaf. I love how she layered Scripty Hello on the new Scripty Hello Outline Add-On in colors to complement the cute ladybugs!

Audrey‘s foxy honeybee is so adorable as the star of her brilliant card! She stenciled the Honeycomb adding drips of honey with Orange Marmalade Nuvo Drops. Then she added some sparkle with our new Sunshine Sequin Mix and finished with a cute sentiment from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Honey Bee!

Caly paired Build-A-Fox and Build-A-Bunny to send some smiles! Using Build-A-Critter Bug Costumes she dressed up one as a butterfly and the other as a ladybug! She inked a simply lovely background with Daisy Bloom Outlined Background Stencil in soft colors. Then she added the Scripty Smile greeting in gold metallic layered on Scripty Smile Outline Add-On!

Tammy‘s design is so adorable and sweet as honey! She paired a honeybee costumed Build-A-Bunny with our new Build-A-Drink Mason Jar Jam and Honey Add-On and cute lemons from Build-A-Drink Pitcher! I love how the cute bunny is sitting in the Stitched Teacup, so cute!

Fruitful Friends

Latisha gathered together some Fruitful Friends to send a sweet sentiment! She used the new Giddy for Gingham paper as the background and included some colorful Rainbow Star Clay Pieces.

Megan combined Fruitful Friends with Capybaras and Capybaras Add-On to create a card that is so cute and citrusy! She used Selfie Frames and Say Cheese Again to frame two adorable scenes.

Mindy‘s card is so fun as it wishes you a “fruitful day”! The smiling faces on the apple, banana and orange are so cute and add to the charm of her design!

Audrey‘s card is so stunning! She masked and stamped the images from Fruitful Friends and the grape cluster from Year Fourteen to create a one-layer grouping. Once they were all masked, she blended pretty lavender ink in the background. And then she added all the cute and funny puns!

For her card, Chari used a pair of cute oranges on Fruit Salad paper! She used Outside In Stitched Scalloped Rectangles to create the background panel. And the Lime Green Twine adds a fun punch of color, too!

Quokka My World

Grace‘s Quokka My World card is so beautiful! She paired this adorable critter with Giant Outlined Love and Heart Blooms, arranging everything on a Postage Rectangle Stackable.

This adorable quokka is right at home in Marine‘s fantastic Shadow Box Card! She filled the scene with fun images from Kanga-rrific Add-On so the cute little critter can send lots of smiles!

Mindy used scene building images from Kanga-rrific Add-On to make this trio of quokkas feel right at home! She added some Simple Puffy Cloud Frames to the sky, then she created a fun sentiment using Cole’s ABCs.

Megan‘s happy design features a tiny Quokka My World scene in a Stitched Scalloped Circle Frame that she layered on a Stitched Party Banner! She included some friends from down-under in the scene from Kanga-rrific Add-On.

Yainea put the spotlight on this cute marsupial using Just Stitching Double Circles! I love the sweet pink and green color palette with a watercolor backdrop and green Grassy Border.
