Welcome to The Card Concept !
For those of you who are new to our challenge, every two weeks we will post our inspiration photo challenge and hope that you will join us by creating a card for our challenge gallery.
Just a reminder, our inspiration photo is exactly that- a starting point for inspiration. Will it be the colors, the overall theme, the texture, the actual items and/or something else that will inspire your card?
Choose a design style (or combine styles), create a card, and in your blog post, let us know what inspired you from the photo, what style and/or styles you chose and don't forget to display our inspiration photo and link back to our challenge :-)
Again, as we mentioned above, please feel free to use any of the styles we have defined or create your own with a combination of styles. We want you to have fun with our inspiration!
In case you missed the link above, the styles are explained HERE.
Now for our Design Team's inspiration:
Esther's Inspiration: I was inspired by the tree
and three leaf clovers when I created this
Clean and Layered card.
Kerry's Inspiration: Inspired by the
St Patrick's Day theme, I made a fancy fold
Clean and Layered good luck card!
Julie's Inspiration: I was inspired by the colors
and since a few of our designers were taking a break
for this challenge, I decided to create two "kitty" cards!
Both are Mixed Media as well as a
little bit Shabby and Vintage :-)
Michele's Inspiration: I am taking a break this week.
See you at Challenge #171!
Karen's Inspiration: Inspired by
the colors and the tree for my
Clean and Layered Card.
Karen's Inspiration: I was very literal with the
inspiration photo and created what I saw (i.e. bicycle,
colors, etc.) for my Vintage and Shabby card!
Nancy's Inspiration: The theme, the colors, and the ride
inspired my Clean and Layered card.
LeAnne's Inspiration: I was inspired by the bicycle,
the shamrocks and the colors to create a
Clean and Layered spring blessings card!
Mackie's taking a break for this challenge and
plans to return for challenge #171!
Kim's Inspiration: My Clean and Simple card was
inspired by the colors and the pops
of patterns on the pillow.
Betty's Inspiration: I was inspired by the colors,
the outdoor scene, and the "wearing green" theme!
I dressed my rooster in green feathers and created a
Clean and Layered styled card.
The Card Concept Guidelines:
1. Use the challenge inspiration photo to create a card- no back linking.
2. Use one of the challenge styles to create a card (or if you prefer, combine a few styles).
3. Explain in a post which style or combination of styles you used and what inspired you from our photo.
4. Link your post using the linky tool (please link to the actual post on your blog and not just your blog) and please display our inspiration photo in your blog post.
5. We do not mind if you combine our challenge with others, but please do not combine ours with another inspiration challenge.
6. Please try to comment on the cards ahead of you and behind you in the gallery. Everyone loves comments!
The deadline to participate will be
Monday, March 14th at 12:00 pm EST.
We look forward to seeing your artwork in our gallery!
