My Sweet Valentine

Hello everyone and welcome to the weekly challenge from the Daring Cardmakers.

Its Dawn here with this weeks challenge but first I would like to say a big thank you for everyone that joined in last week for the elemental inspiration challenge.  It was lovely to see how the mood board inspired you.

My Sweet Valentine

Valentines day is nearly here so I would like you to show me the love and share your Valentines makes.  Make sure your cards feature lots of shades of red and pink and of course love hearts.

We can't wait to see what you make and here is some inspiration from the Design Team.

February Elemental Inspiration Challenge

 
Hello Lovely Cardmakers

Thank you so much to everyone who joined in and shared such fabulous cards for Nat's 'In the Frame' challenge last week. It was so lovely to see your creations
 
This week we welcome in the new month with Enfys's beautiful mood-board

February Elemental Challenge

 I've chosen a leafy mood-board with cool greens and aquas, warmed up with pink red and yellow.  But its not just about colours, check out all the little details on the image and you're sure to find the minimum 3 elements you need to use when you make your card.
 As usual if you use the colour combo it counts as 1 element 



Here are some ideas from our team to start you off

In the Frame

Good morning cardmakers!

Thank you to everyone who played along with Kathy's "Think of a Number" dare last week!

It's Nat here, ready to set my first dare for 2022!

I want you to feature a frame on your card.

You can use it to spotlight a sentiment or image, or you can go the whole hog with a large frame that showcases your entire card design.

It's totally up to you!

To help get your creative cogs turning, here are the lovely projects the design team has made:

Think of a Number


Hello Lovely Cardmakers! 
 
Thanks for joining in with Enfys's lovely balloons challenge last week - its funny how  watching a balloon floating up in the sky is always a cheery sight/  I wonder why that is...
 
Anyway its me, Kathy here today with a new challenge for you
Think of a Number
I'd like you to make one or more numerals the stars of your card in some way this time. 
It could be for one of those 'special number' birthdays or anniversaries. using a background formed from numbers or perhaps you could even make a number shaped card.
Here are some ideas from our fabulous creative team

Up Up and Away...

Hello!

Welcome back for another Daring Cardmakers challenge.  

Thanks to those who joined in and used last week's Wintry mood-board tp inspire your crafting.

This time it's me, Enfys here, and my challenge is called:
Up up and Away...
To put it simply, I'd just love to see lots of balloons
as the focal point of your card.
They always loos so cheerful when you see them floating up there in the sky, don't they?
 They can be hot air balloons or party balloons.  
One big balloon or lots of little ones!

January Elemental Inspiration Challenge

Hello, and
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Thank you so much to everyone who joined in and shared some fantastic projects during our 'Have Yourself a Very Crafty Christmas' challenges.  We hope you enjoyed them as much as we did.
 
Now though it's time for our first challenge of 2022 and it's Shabneez here to share a chilly sort of mood-board, with a colour palette a bit different to all those Christmas colours we've been using.  Not that you have to use these colours of course!

January Elemental Challenge

 

I've chosen a cool, ethereal and textural mood-board to inspire your crafting at the start of this new year.  
Just choose at least 3 elements from the picture to use when you make
your card.  As usual if you use the colour combo it counts as 1 element 

Here are some ideas from our team to start you off
