The Card Concept #221 {Give Thanks}

                Welcome to The Card Concept !

For those of you who are new to our challenge, every month we will post our inspiration photo challenge and hope that you will join us by creating a card for our challenge gallery. 

If you would like to join us on Instagram, please follow us at our new IG acct-  @thecardconceptchallenges2  

Also, if you post on social media, please tag @thecardconceptchallenges2 and use the hashtag #tccxxx (xxx=challenge # for ex: this challenge would be #tcc221).

Just a reminder, an 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 :-)


At the end of the challenge, our Design Team will choose one Main Winner and at least three Honorable Mentions.  We will announce the winners here on our challenge blog, as well as our Facebook page and our new Pinterest board.  

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!

So come and join us!  We'd love for you to try your hand at a brand new style of card making or feel free to work in your comfort zone.  It is totally up to you!

In case you missed the link above, the styles are explained HERE.

Now for our Design Team's inspiration: 



Julie's Inspiration: I was inspired by the colors and theme 
for my Shabby and Vintage Mixed Media card!

Julie's Inspiration: I was inspired to create a second card!  
Again, the colors, theme and gourds inspired 
my Mixed Media card!


Michele's Inspiration: My inspiration comes from the woodsy feel
 of the gourds and the soft colors and shapes of the leaves
 for my Clean and Layered card. 


Jolanda's Inspiration: Dark Purple and Teals Colors with a 
touch of Gold and a Leaf for a Clean and Graphic styled card.




Karen's Inspiration: I was inspired by the colors 
and the gourds for my Clean and Layered card.

Jennie's Inspiration: I was inspired by the gourds, 
leaves and flowers and colors to create a 
Classy and Elegant wedding card.

leaves for my Clean and Layered mixed style card.
