Bon Voyage!

Hello and happy Friday!

It's Rizwana here with this weeks challenge but firstly I'd like to thank everyone who joined in the Summer Drinks challenge.

This weeks challenge is all about holidays. A lot of people are getting ready to go on holiday either abroad or at home. Summer holidays have started and the kids are off school. A perfect time to get away and enjoy family time.

Bon Voyage!

Are you off on your travels? I'd like you to create a fun travel card to share with us this week and hope you all enjoy your time away either at home or abroad.

summer drinks

Thanks for sharing your Christmas cards with us!

This week we’re back in summer 😊!

I, Miri, prefer warmth and sunshine and challenge you to use

summer drinks

on your cards.

Whatever you like to drink on hot days is fine and we’d love to see it: cocktails, lemon water, coffee (a necessity in every season 😉!), iced tea

… some fruit, other decoration or a straw are optional, but extra cute.

And here is some inspiration from the design team:

Just My Type

Morning all!

It's Nat here bringing you this week's dare.

But first, thank you to everyone who joined in with our Garden Bugs challenge last week!

For the last challenge of the month, I'd like to see you feature a typewriter or typewriter-style fonts on your card.

I have a much-loved typewriter set that is my go-to for fun and special cards, and I absolutely love the look of type-written sentiments. They work perfectly for so many designs from the clean and simple to the super ornate.

Here's how the design team interpreted this challenge:

Garden Bugs

Happy Friday!

It's Shabneez here and I'd like to thank those of you that joined in with the masculine challenge last week - they were amazing!

I have been spending a lot of time in the garden recently so I decided to incorporate it into my challenge this week. It's the time of year when a variety of bugs visit gardens so I'd love to see which bugs are in yours!

You'll see some wonderful inspiration from the Design Team below and we look forward to seeing your bug creations!

Make it Masculine

Hello everyone and welcome to another weekly challenge.

Its Dawn here to share this weeks dare but first we would all like to say thank you to everyone that joined in last week with the everything's coming up roses challenge from our lovely Joanne.

Make It Masculine

As it is fathers day on 18th June I would like to see a masculine card to celebrate the men folk. It doesn't have to be for fathers day but I know we all struggle with a more masculine card so lets have some made for the card stash.

Happy crafting.

Everything's coming up roses

Hello crafters

Thanks for playing along with our elemental challenge last week!

Everything's Coming up Roses

It’s Joanne here this week and as roses are one of the two birth flowers for June, this week we’d like to see roses somewhere on your project.

If you’re not in the mood for flowers there’s another way to play; Yellow roses symbolise friendship so include yellow in your colour palette with any image or technique you like as a nod to crafty friendships.

Extra brownie points if you manage both and show us yellow roses!

Here’s some inspiration from the team:

June Elemental Inspiration

Hello Lovely Crafting Friends!

It was so good to see so much beachy inspiration and wonderful ways to add seashells to your cards last week - thank you so much for sharing your creativity!

It's Kathy here this time with the

June Elemental Challenge.

I love all turquoise and aqua shades and as gold goes so well with them, I've based my mood-board around those colours. I've added 'pops' of other colours too because it seems to me that turquoise makes every other colour look better!

All you need to do is choose 3 elements from the board to use when you make your card. If you use them, the colour combo would count as 1.

You can see the wonderful inspiration from the Design Team below:

Suggestions: Layout, Drink, Flower, Greenery, Metalwork,

Wood Textures, Bottles, Mosaic...
