Up for a Challenge? Wanna Play? Want Free stuff? .... Happy Wednesday everyone! As I mentioned in my post yesterday, I passed the 10,000 mark on my blog - and am still in SHOCK. Thank you SO much. I am truly humbled. As promised, I would like to give away some free goodies to celebrate. But first I have a challenge for you. Usually, I look to Kristina Werner's blog for her color inspirations, but this week, that poor, sweet girl is taking a well deserved break! So I'm gonna take a crack at it. Here's the inspiration:
There's something about this picture that stirs my creative brain. Hope it inspires you too. What's the rules? Just build a card or project with this picture as inspiration. I've pulled a few SU! colors out of the picture (above), but feel free to pick and choose any combo in the picture that suits you (please use a minimum of 3). Post your creation on your blog or online gallery, then post a link to your card as a comment here before Saturday May 31, 9pm MT. I will randomly draw a winner on Sunday. What's the prize you ask? Well, besides the satisfaction of building a beautiful project, I will be giving away Eastern Eclectic Rub-ons, a 12 (2 ea of 6) sheet card stock assortment of my favorite colors and a buffet pack of Ribbon & Embellishments.... happy stampin! :)
(PS - This bedset is made by Jeffrey Fisher, called 'Heathcote Gardens').
I am so excited for your challenge. I miss Kristina's challenges, but have always admired your cards!!! Can't wait to post mine! Thanks!!!!
