November Challenge 11/17

Hello and welcome back to our Challenge Blog post!  Let’s kick off today’s post by announcing our October Mood Board Challenge results!

The winner of our October Mood Board Challenge is… Gloria!

We loved Gloria’s take on our Caffeine Themed Mood Board for last month. Her pretty white heat embossed Mini Wild Florals are a gorgeous watercolored accent to her tea cup.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

Here are three additional projects that especially stood out to us:

We love the fun scene that Olesya created with our Love and a Cat set!

Gwendolyn created a beautifully colored Wishful Wildflower card paired up with a pretty coffee pot.

Jenny paired our Panda Can’t Even set with the gorgeous layered peony from our Haute Stacks to create this fun card!

All of the entries from our Mood Board Challenge were so pretty and we’d like to thank everyone who participated in last month’s Challenge!

For this month’s new challenge, we have a cue word: HOLIDAY

The prize for this challenge will be a $50 gift certificate to our shop!
