Inkspirational Challenge #281 - Word Prompt

Hello...and welcome to Inkspirational Challenge #281 - our first challenge of 2023 - and the beginning of what we hope will be a fun-filled year of inspiration. We have a few changes coming up, which we hope you'll enjoy, alongside a couple of the 'regulars', namely, Word Prompt. 

For this challenge, we've selected New and/or Welcome to inspire you over the next two weeks. Welcome is straight forward; New can include anything from new baby, new year, new beginnings and even new products in your stash making their debut. 

We'd also like to warmly welcome our two new designers -  Julia and Nonni.

Let's check out the inspiration from the design team:

Meet Our New Designers!

 Hello,

We're a week away- January 14th, to be specific -  from starting our 2023 challenges, so time to introduce you to the two designers who will be joining our team: Julia, from Create with Me and Nonni, from Nonni's Handmade Cards , who's returning to the INK family after being away for a few years. W

Let's get to know our brand-new team member:

Julia

 

I started card stamping about 28 years ago - in a similar way to many - after attending Stampin' Up card stamping parties! I have always been crafty but I cannot draw and stamping gave me a way to create beautiful cards without drawing. I started out being a clean and simple style stamper. Now I'd say I do mostly clean and layered, but I have dabbled with vintage and steampunk styles as I was on various design teams. I've just recently been experimenting with watercoloring my images. There's always something new to get excited about with stamping. My jam packed craft room is a testament to that! I'm looking forward to creating with the Inkspirational Team!

The entire team - Pia, Marlena, Julia, Nonni and I (Carol) are excited to embark on another year of INKSPIRATIONAL Challenges. We're looking forward to having all of you 'play cards' with us! 

Our first challenge of 2023 starts next Saturday! 
See you then!
