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 theme when I
created this Clean and Layered card.
Kerry's Inspiration: I used an ANZAC Day theme
and the swatch colours as inspiration for
my Clean and Layered card.
Julie's Inspiration: I was inspired by the Red, White and Blue
along with the stars and stripes and created a
patriotic themed Shabby and Vintage Mixed Media card!
My husband's Memorial was this past Sunday
and have been taking a break from posting to my blog-
I should be posting again soon!
Karen's Inspiration: I was inspired by the colors
in the photo for my Clean and Graphic card.
Karen's Inspiration: I was inspired by the patriotic
theme when creating my Clean & Layered card
Nancy's Inspiration: My inspiration came from the photo's
colors for my Clean and Layered card.
LeAnne's Inspiration: I used the colors and
stars-and-stripes theme of the inspiration photo
to create my Clean and Layered patriotic card!
Mackie's Inspiration: I was inspired by the red, white and
blue to create my Clean and Layered Style card!
Kim's Inspiration: My Clean and Simple card was
inspired by the colors and by patriotic theme which
always fills me with memories of down-home picnics!
Betty's Inspiration: I was inspired by the red, white, and
blue color palette, the vases of red flowers, and the "Love" sign.
I 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, June 6th at 12:00 pm EST.
We look forward to seeing your artwork in our gallery!
