Masculine Makes

Hello Crafters and thank you to everyone that joined in last weeks challenge.

Its Dawn here with this weeks challenge and it's one that I often struggle with or I just don't make that many.  I also seem to float towards floral and feminine type of cards.

So this week I would like to see your

Masculine Makes.

Its always a good idea to have a stash of masculine themed cards ready for the men/boys in our lives.

Lets take a look and see how the Design Team were inspired and we can't wait to see what you create.

Oh Baby!

 Hello, I hope you are all well.

Thank you so much for joining in with September's Elemental Inspiration Challenge - wasn't it a beautifully inspiring mood board!

Oh Baby!
"Today I (Ruth) am your host and I've gone with an 'Oh Baby!' theme.  This challenge falls in between my two boys' Birthdays and I'm a bit in denial that they will be 15 and 17.

So, it could be a new baby card, a congratulations or just a card for your 'baby' - the theme interpretation is up to you!  Good luck!"

Here is some inspiration from the Design Team:

September Elemental Inspiration

Hello everyone hope you are all well and keeping safe. 

It's Rizwana here with a new challenge, but first I'd like to say a big thank you to every one who took part in last week's - In the Garden Challenge. It was lovely to see all of your beautiful garden inspired creations.

Its the first Friday of the month and that means its an elemental challenge here at DCM. I am really excited as its my first Elemental challenge and hope you all enjoy this autumnal mood-board.

Choose at least three elements from the picture to include in your project (colour scheme counts as one element). 

Happy crafting everyone!

In the Garden

Happy Friday!

It's Shabneez here and I'd like to thank those of you that joined in the Challenge last week - we loved seeing all your picture related cards and were definitely inspired!  It's my turn to set the challenge this week and it's a garden inspired one as I don't know about you but I've spent a lot of time in mine recently:

"I’ve been spending a lot of time in the garden

lately and so I’d like to see creations with 

something from your garden, window box, 

windowsill or maybe the garden of your

dreams on it!" 

Check out all the inspiration from the Design Team below and we can't wait to see your creations!

Picture-perfect

 Hello, crafters! Thank you for the really cool cards you shared with us last week. Your ideas with surprise elements, folds and apertures are very inspiring!

This week it’s my, Miri’s, turn to set the challenge.

I want to see picture-perfect cards 😊!

Use a photo camera, a picture frame, a Polaroid layout,
 an actual photograph or 

anything picture/photo related on your card.

Here are some amazing examples from the talented design team members:

Peek-a-boo!

Hi everyone!

It's Nat here bringing you the details of this week's Daring Cardmakers challenge.

But first up, thank you to everyone who played along with the August elemental inspiration - it's always fun seeing which elements jump start your creativity and get interpreted on your cards. :)

And now, onto this week's dare... 

I want to see you make a card with some sort of opening element!

It could be:

• A lift-up flap
• A surprise element (e.g., a tear-away section to reveal a sentiment, an interactive moving wheel, a pull tab with something that pops up)
• Or simply a clever use of an aperture

The design team has created some fab projects below.

Whatever you choose to go with, happy crafting!
