Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #14 & A Blog Named Hero October Challenge

Here are the two challenges I would like to attend both related to Lawn Fawn's critters:

1) Lawn Fawnatics Challenge #14 - Happy Little Critters, below is the challenge photo:


2) A Blog Named Hero October Challenge - Calling All Critters with Lawn Fawn, below is the challenge photo:


And here is the card I made to attend the above two challenges:


I used Lawn Fawn's "Merry Christmas" border die and the die cut inlay technique to create the "Merry Christmas" border under a pocket I made. Then I white embossed "dropping by to say" (from Lawn Fawn's "for you, deer" set) on top left corner of the background. I also heat embossed "Let's Hang Out" (from Lawn Fawn's "for you, deer" set) at the bottom right corner of the card. I randomly dropped some white Tonic Nuvo crystal dots on the dark grey background to mimic snow. I used the "for you, deer" set to create two book marks - deer and bear, and insert them into the pocket I created. Below is another look of the card:


The card recipient can pull out these two little critters as the bookmarks to use. I coloed them with Copic markers. Below is the look of the cute bookmarks:
