Top Picks Challenge #334 and Reminder Post - Challenge #335 - Mood Board

 Welcome to our two part post.

**First, a reminder that you have until Friday, February 28th at 11:59 pm (GMT) to play in Challenge #335 - Mood Board found HERE.

**Second, Challenge #334 - our collaboration challenge with Colour Hues - closed with 70 Red and Pink wonderfully creative entries, covering a wide range of expressions of love. As always, selecting Top Picks is difficult but we've come up with four favourites.

Our Top Picks:

Michele's cute couple is beautifully coloured; pairing them with the pretty heart and cross-stitched embossing folder makes for a card that has us smiling brightly.

Donna's gradient ink-blended hearts makes for a card filled with colourful love.

Annette's inked and stamped corners are beautiful; a pretty corner stage for her delicate heart wreath and foliage.

Papierelle's watercoloured + Brusho hearts, layered to form an eye-catching dimensional flower, is a lovely 20th Anniversary card for her husband. 

Congratulations to our Top Picks; please take your badge.

Inkspirational Challenge #335 - Mood Board

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

After spending the first half (already!) of February playing with red and pink (and plenty of hearts!) in our previous challenge, we're turning to a different palette and images for the second half of the month, as shown in the Mood Board below.  Aqua, teal, blues, purples, woodgrain, florals, letters, spools of thread, bowls, plates, patterns...plenty of selection to spark your creativity.


                                   
Reminder: please remember that mood boards are created as 'inspiration,' offering multiple avenues for you to explore. We're excited to see your interpretations. 

Inspiration from the Design Team:

The Link will open until Friday, Feb. 28 @ 11:59pm (GMT).

We'll be back on Saturday, Feb. 22 with a Reminder Post and Top Picks from Challenge #334.

**Second, Challenge #333 closed with 41 fabulous snowy entries; we had no idea that snow would be such a draw - and showcased in such a wide variety of ways. As always, selecting Top Picks is difficult but we've come up with four frosty favourites.

Our Top Picks:

Stef
 Steph has created a beautiful snowy design with her pretty layered snowflakes, tag and blue bloom die cuts.

Papierelle
Papierelle's snowboarding moose looks pretty confident, cool and stylish as he tackles the snowy slopes. Such a fun card!

Crafty_whoistracy
Tracy's little snowmen are darling, especially placed on the postage stamps backgrounds.

Valerie
Valerie's beautifully coloured, talented skating giraffe is certainly enjoying the frozen snow of the ice rink. An all-around delight.

Inkspirational Challenge #334 - COLLABORATION with Color Hues Challenge #103 - RED AND PINK

WELCOME TO OUR SPECIAL EVENT!

  Inkspirational Challenge #334 - COLLABORATION with Color Hues Challenge #103 

Carol here, a designer/behind-the-scenes organizer of Inkspirational Challenges. and a design team member at The Color Hues Challenge.

The Inkspirational gals and I are delighted to participate in this first-time collaboration with Color Hues Challenge #103.  Creating with RED AND PINK – a combination open to such a wide range of hues, as well as occasions/events – makes us even more happy! 

 

This collaboration serves two key goals: to increase exposure of both challenges to players who may/may not know about them and to offer YOU a chance to share your projects in two galleries. If you link with us here, please be sure to hop over to Colour Hues to link there. We’re hoping for an outstanding number of entries over the course of the two week run of both challenges.

A wee bit about The Color Hues Challenge, in general:

Twice a month (1st - 14th; 16th - 29th), we post a challenge that suggests the Hues of Color we wish you to focus on.  You may use any gradient tone of the two colors and neutrals are welcome. Our neutrals are: white, black, grey, kraft, brown, cream, gold, and silver. Themes and your choices of images are open. Just a friendly note: please ensure that you select images that fit the colour combination, especially if you enjoy florals. Green is not a neutral. 

To our wonderful Inkspirational players: we look forward to introducing you to Color Hues through this collaboration and hope you'll add it to your crafting repertoires.
