July Elemental Inspiration

Happy Friday, crafters!

And a big "thank you" to everyone who let themselves be inspired by last week's 3D challenge. Always fun to leave the flat surface of a card and take up a little more room, isn't it?

And can you believe we're halfway through this crazy year already? And of course for the start of a new month we do have a new moodboard for you:

Please use at least 3 elements from the picture.

Colours count as one element only (sorry).

I guess I went a bit crazy when I got everything together for the photograph - but I do hope that you will find this a fun theme and just right for the summer holidays after all.

And please do check out what our design team members have been inspired to make! And then: playtime for you - have fun!

June's Elemental Inspiration picture

Thank you for sharing so many fabulous cards last week. It's tough not being able to really celebrate those very special occasions with our friends and family just now, so pouring your wishes into a wonderful, handmade card is a great way to show how much you are thinking of them.

It's me, Kathy here today and I'm really happy to introduce you to a fabulous new Guest Designer:
Jenny (AKA GingerNinja)
We love her cards and we're sure you will too.
We are so looking forward to seeing what you do with our challenges over the next few weeks, Jenny!

Now on with this week's challenge...

I've chosen a 'fun in the sun' kind of theme for my mood-board and I hope you'll have some fun with it. All you need to do is choose at least 3 elements to use when you make your card.
