Whatever the Weather!

Hello Daring Cardmakers, welcome to the blog!

It's Kirsty here, and my debut for hosting so firstly a big thank you to the team members for their guidance and patience! Secondly, thank you to everyone who took part in last week's music/dance challenge. I love how we all have such different but fabulous takes on a theme. So many different styles to admire!

This week's theme is 'Whatever the Weather'. Don't we always love to chat about the weather? We've had a real mix lately from freezing cold, wind storms, rain and sunshine so I thought this would be a great theme! I would love to see your weather related card!

Check out the weather report from the design team below!

Face the music and dance

Hello crafters, Joanne here. Thanks for sharing yummy cake with us last week! 

For this week’s challenge,  I’m making a song and dance about things: make a card inspired by music and/or dance. Any kind of music, any kind of dance — serenade us or break out the boogie, however the mood takes you!

Here’s some inspiration from the design team:

February Elemental Inspirational Challenge

 Hello Cardmakers

Thank you so much for joining in with last week's challenge to go As White As You Dare! It's always good to see what you come up with, and I'm sure some of you found it easier than others - just like us!

It’s the first Friday of a brand new month, and today’s challenge is “elemental” — just choose at least three elements from the picture to kick start your card. 

February Elemental Inspiration Challenge 

It's Rizwana here to host this week and my mood board is super pretty, with lots of lovely inspiration in there. 

Remember just choose at least 3 elements to use when you make your card.
Using pink is optional!

That's All White Then

Happy Friday!

Thank you so much for joining in with Shabneez's lovely Floral Frenzy - there's nothing like a whole 'garden' of flowers to bring some cheer to a cold, miserable Winter day!

Every now and then we find ourselves needing a 'substitute' challenge for one reason or another, and that's what happened ahead of this one.  At that time we had snow in some parts of the UK and there's bound to be plenty still over a lot of the world.  So someone (and we'll leave her anonymous) said
 "What about having an All White challenge?" 

and it seemed like a good idea at the time...

That's All White Then!

Just go as white as you dare on your cards this week and use just a little colour if you really have to! We are excited to see what you come up with!

Floral Frenzy

Happy Friday!

Thanks to those of you that joined in with the peach-themed challenge last week.  It's Shabneez here with a floral challenge for you:

I think we all have numerous floral themed craft supplies don't we? So this week, let's fill our blogs and feeds with glorious flowers!  I'm really looking forward to seeing how you use your favourite florals.

You can see lots of inspiration from the Design Team below:

Just Peachy

Happy Friday all!

It's Nat here with the next challenge of 2024!

But first, thank you to those who played along with our first elemental 

challenge of the year last week! 

We're glad you could join us in easing back into some crafting after the festive break.

A new year also means a new Pantone colour of the year, and 2024 is the year of Peach Fuzz!

So to celebrate this new focus colour, I want to see you use peach tones on your card in some way.

To get you started, here are some projects from the design team:
