Let's talk about the weather

Thank you for all the beautiful blue cards you shared with us last week!

It’s Miri here and I suggest a little bit of small talk on this lovely Friday:

Let’s talk about the weather!

Use anything weather-related on your card: clouds, sun (rays), 
rain (drops), snow etc.

And maybe you can tell us about the actual weather outside your craft room. Can you already see, feel and smell spring?

Here’s some wonderful inspiration from the Design Team:

Feeling blue...

...but in a very good way!

Hi everyone!

It's Nat here, back from a little creative break while my crafting mojo decided to go on holiday and incidentally just back from my own little holiday in Cornwall visiting family. :)

Before I share the details of this week's dare, I wanted to just thank everyone who has been playing along with the design team and creating fab creations in response to our dares!

I've brought a bit of Cornish inspiration back with me for this week's challenge.

Blue is always a colour I associate with Cornwall - the iconic blue stripes of Cornishware pottery, the gorgeous indigo fabric prints (especially in Seasalt - yep, I bought another shopper bag...), and just the general weathered blues on boats and buildings all about.

There's lots to love about that colour so this week I'd like you to share projects showcasing shades of blue!

To get you started, here are some lovely card ideas from the design team – Pinterest also has some great examples of Cornish blue tones for added inspiration:

Animal Antics

Hello,  Ruth here!
 
Thank you to those who joined in with last week's Elemental Inspiration challenge.
  This is my first time hosting a challenge and I hope you'll join me and the so talented Design Team in creating a project for the theme for this week:

Animal Antics

Animals can be so funny and as long as your project features one then get it linked up below so we can come and visit you!  Make it the focal point or as an embellishment or accent - just as long as your creation features one then you're good to go!

Here is some inspiration from the team:
