Christmas in July!

Morning all!

It's Nat here bringing you this week's challenge, but before I get into the finer details, we'd like to thank everyone who played along in last week's sky-themed challenge!

This week, skies of a more wintry variety may be on the agenda, because in 5 months time we will be celebrating Boxing Day, enjoying a round of left-overs, and managing to survive on festive nibbles....

If you want to get ahead with your Christmas cards and be done in good time before December, this challenge could be the perfect opportunity.

I know Christmas won't be on everyone's agenda, but you can still play along by featuring a festive colour palette on a card celebrating another occasion, or by giving your Christmas supplies a new lease of life on something non-festive. 

To get you started, here are a few ideas from the Design Team:

The Sky’s The Limit

Happy Friday!

It's Shabneez here and I wanted to thank those of you that joined in with the challenge last week.  

The Sky’s The Limit
This time I'd love to see your creations featuring the sky, whether day, night, sunrise or sunset.
Maybe a scene with flying 'things' eg. balloons, birds, planes, or insects...
Or perhaps you'll make a deep space themed card.

Or with 'Christmas in July' in mind how about a snowy sky?

July Elemental Inspiration

I've gone with pretty much the opposite of 'bright'!  My moodboard is all about Summery, Pretty Pastels and I hope you'll find plenty to inspire your creative juices within the frame!

Of course you don't even need to use pastel colours - you can choose any 3 (or more) 'element's from the mood board to use when you get creating!

Ideas: rectangles, wheels, vehicles, cake, drinks, 

flowers, colours, fruit, scripty fonts, layout...
