Inkspirational Challenge #310 - Mood Board

Welcome back to Inkspirational; we're delighted you're here.

For the next two weeks, we invite you to draw inspiration from the Mood Board below. Pastel colours, pretty flowers, a beautiful, simply designed layered cake, tasty macarons, cupcakes and cake pops are just a start.  Remember: a mood board offers a plethora of launching points for your card/project: images, colours, textures, design and much more. Let us know what caught your eye; we're sure to be dazzled.

Second, Challenge #308 closed with 20 delightful paper-pieced entries. Thank you so much for sharing your fussy-cutting skills!  As always, selecting our highlights is a challenge, especially when everyone's card deserves time in the spotlight.  

Our Top Picks:

Deb paper-pieced not one, but five coffee cups - and how fun is her mixing-and-matching of patterned papers!
