Shades of Autumn Colour Challenge Winner

Thanks to everyone who played along in our shades of autumn colour challenge last month - we had some fabulous entries and have enjoyed catching up on them all this morning so we can pick our winner which was tough.

We've settled on the following stunning wreath card by Inkami - we loved how they used all the colours in the challenge to create the wreath and really thought it popped.

 


Do get in touch Inkami via the store email to claim your £10 voucher to spend in store.

We'll be launching a new challenge for October later so check back to see what that will be and play along for your chance to win £10.

Our First Challenge - Inspired by the Paris Olympics 2024!

Hello everyone and welcome to our new challenge blog.  I love to get creative and I know our customers do too, so we've set up this new blog to host a monthly challenge where we will set a paper craft challenge each month to spark your creativity - we may even offer prizes to the best projects if we get enough people playing along! For our first challenge which will run until the end of August 2024 we've selected a "be inspired by" theme.  I often see some random object, or something on TV that sparks a creative idea for a card so I love an inspired by challenge.  This week I was inspired by a costume at the olympics so I've decided this month's theme will be " be inspired by Paris 2024 Olympics " You can take this theme in many different ways - be inspired by a specific sport, by an eye-catching moment from the opening ceremony, colours in the team kits, shapes and colours in the arenas, a specific location like the Palace of Versailles, the mascot,

Challenge 2 - Shades of Autumn

Hello everyone, and welcome to meterological autumn (it starts today in the UK at least).  We thought a suitable challenge this month would be a colour challenge using shades of autumn as our colour palette. Tara created a colour palette of 9 colours and to enter the challenge you must use ONLY shades from this block (you can include black and white and use glitter or metallics which match the colours too - ie gold is good - silver not)   You must use AT LEAST THREE COLOURS to enter the challenge. You do not have to use autumnal themed products in your challenge makes, although you may if you choose - you can go Christmas, birthday - anything you fancy - just use 3 colours and take it where it leads you. Tara challenged herself to use as many of the colours as possible in her make to kick the challenge off.  She used the Autumn Inlay Die from Concord and 9th with a navy background and then pieced in the leaves and acorns in the other shades.  From that she double-die cut the finished

October Sketch Challenge

This month we have decided to give you a sketch challenge to play with for a chance to win £10 to spend in our store. The sketch can be a card, a scrapbook layout, a paper based gift, anything you like as long as the sketch is the jumping off point for your inspiration.  You can rotate the sketch too so if you'd rather play landscape than portrait, or if you want the triangle at the bottom and the circles at the top - then that's fair game too.   You don't need to interpret the shapes literally - see Tara's make as an example of what you can do with the sketch.  We just need to see that you started with the sketch as inspiration - new makes only please, back links won't be accepted. You have until noon on the 31st October (GMT) to play along and we'll remind you as we go through the month and we hope you'll find it a fun sketch to work with. Whilst we'd prefer to see products we sell in our store used in this challenge, it's not a requirement for ent
