Top Picks Challenge #310 and Reminder Post - Challenge #311 - CAS (optional - Feature a Balloon)

 Welcome to our two part post.

First, a reminder that you have until Friday, March 22nd at 11:59 pm (GMT) to play in Challenge #311 - CAS, with an optional twist to Feature a Balloon - found HERE. At the time of writing this post, we have 23 delightful clean and simple entries in the gallery. Thank you to those who have joined us. Let's keep the beautiful makes coming! 

Second, Challenge #310 -  Mood Board -  closed with 32 entries. Thank you for sharing your inspired creations with us.  As always, selecting the Top Picks is a challenge. Given the number of cards shared and the fact that mood boards offer such a range of possibilities, we're choosing FOUR cards to highlight:

Our Top Picks:

Lisa E

Lisa's cake has us craving a slice or two, especially with the pretty pink flowers, the wonderful touches of gold in the candles, leaves and doily and the eye-catching icing. The coverplate background, with the cream showing through, is a lovely touch. 

Jolanda

Jolanda's pink-and-mint, two-layered, beautifully decorated cake is a lovely take on the mood board. The embossed background adds another layer of delight.

Deborah

Deborah's floral spray, combined with sparkling splatters and subtle brick wall stenciling, is a pretty Mother's Day card and a delightful take on the mood board. 

Carol Mc

Carol's cake pops are adorable, especially as they're decorated in colours inspired by the mood board. The sentiment - "Chance of Sprinkles" - is punny perfect for her whimsical take.

Congratulations to our Top Picks; please take your badge.

Inkspirational Challenge #311 - Clean and Simple (Optional: Feature a Balloon)

Welcome back to Inkspirational; we're delighted you're joining us.

A huge THANK YOU to those who shared their lovely mood board inspired cards/projects for the previous challenge. At the time of writing this post - with a few more hours remaining of the Linky being open - we were at 30 entries. Again, your enthusiasm brings us joy! 

Our challenge for the next two weeks is CAS - Clean and Simple - with an optional twist of Feature a Balloon.

 

Optional: Feature a Balloon

To help you out, here's what we'll be looking for with your Clean and Simple designs:

✅ One main focal point

✅ Lots of OPEN space (doesn't 'have' to be white)

✅ Minimal Layers

✅ Minimal Embellishments

Inspiration from the Design Team 

(and even though several of us featured a balloon, this is not a requirement. Balloons are just fun!)
