Hi crafty friends and welcome to our first September Inspiration Challenge! This is a new monthly challenge on our blog, featuring colour inspiration as well as a fun prompt each month to get you going in your craft room!
If you missed it, you can find our top 3 favorites and a randomly chosen winner of the August challenge here.
How it works
Each month we’ll give you a theme or technique prompt along with a colour palette. Our Design Team will share some inspirational projects to get your creativity flowing and after that it’s up to you!
Create a brand new project inspired by the month’s prompt or colour palette or both and share it with us in the link party below.
At the end of the month, we’ll share our favorite projects and we’ll randomly draw a winner out of all the entries of that month. The randomly selected winner will receive a £30 gift card to the Alex Syberia Designs store.
The prompt for September is Birthday.
Any sort of birthday project is welcome here! You can go for a birthday scrapbook page or use this opportunity to add to your stash of birthday cards! Or, if you’re the mythical cardmaker who has way too many birthday cards laying around already, let your project be inspired by our fun and bright colour pallette instead.
