Top Picks - Challenge #289 - and Reminder Post - Challenge #290 - Moodboard

 Hello,

Welcome to today's two part post.

First, a reminder that Challenge #290 - found HERE - is open until Friday, June 2 @ 11:59pm (GMT). Our lovely Nonni has created a reminder card as inspiration; isn't it gorgeous! If you've played along with us; thank you. If not or if you want to play again, please do.  We'd love to see you in gallery.

Second, time to announce the winners for Challenge #289, where the word prompt was MINI. So many delightful cards/projects to choose from - and again, making decisions was a challenge! Below are our

TOP PICKS:

Leslie

Leslie's coffee shop is darling - and what makes it even more novel is that it's the size of a matchbox! Seriously! That's mini at a whole new level! 

Deanne

Deanne's little VW treat box, complete with googly eyes, had us ohhhing and ahhhing over how cute it is! 

Lisa

Lisa's tiny cupcake is certainly the star of the show - and the staging she's created for it, with the pretty background die, stripes and bow, is so fitting. An adorable, stylish way to showcase *min*. 

Congratulations to our TOP PICKS; please take your badge.
