profile: "Hi, I am Jane aka Jane D on social media. I live in the south of Sweden with my husband and our two little budgies, Rio and Rafiki (who inspired my card). Card making came into my life in 2018 when I found a craft challenge online when I was browsing the internet. As I had dabbled a little in scrapbooking I had a small stash of pretty papers, some ink pads and a few stamps so I gave it a go, and since then I am hooked. Nowadays I create all sorts of projects and love trying out different styles and techniques. I mostly craft during winter as I spend as much time as possible on our sailboat “Lykke” the rest of the year. Sailing is my, and my husband’s, passion and you can find us on IG @sailing_lykke where we share some of our adventures. I also love to read, crossword puzzles, music, photography and spending time with our four children and their families. One thing we all have in common is our love of animals, and a variety of critters have shared our home and been part of the family over the years; it’s been dogs, birds, hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish and a frog. I even think my first stamp set was a critter one. I am a proud member of two design teams, and I hope my projects spread a little inspiration to other crafters."

Our DT Animal Kingdom Favourites:

PLEASE REMEMBER THE ANIMAL HAD TO BE THE MAIN FOCUS 

 

Claire DT

#59 Alice K

A fun card with the fox chasing the butterflies. I also thought it was very creative as it had been done with watercolours. She'd also fussy cut things. I admire anyone who can fussy cut successfully, I'm rubbish at it 

 

and

  

Faith DT

 #4 Bernadet

 Using his swimming diploma to display the marine life and the teddies playing, and making the waves on the bottom of the B too, so clever.

 

 

and

 

 Heather DT 

 

#76 Loll

This adorable little bear stole my heart as soon as I saw him!!  I LOVE the simplicity of the card and the sentiment fits his look so perfectly!

 

and 

Helen DT 

 #40 Nelleke

 A great fun design in one of my favourite colour combinations.

 

 

and

 

Janet (Sweetpea) DT 

 

#6 Wendy Kington

I think this cute dog looks quite sad

and

 

Uschi DT 

 

#23  Jolanda Johnstone  

 A fantastic CAS design, beautiful colors, a lovely watercolor background, and a great die-cut motif. I love the seahorse and the coral, and I like that the coral is done in a different color.

 

 

and

 

Anne DT

 

#72 Kathie

I just loved the colours in this fun and joyful card

and

 

Carol G  DT

The dinosaurs and sentiment are very irreverent and FUN with great elements.
