Week 348: SHIMMER


Time to shimmer and shine this week!  We're looking forward to a pretty gallery!

**Please note:  This particular challenge will be three weeks long due to scheduled vacation time!  That just means everyone will have an extra week to join in the fun!

As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:

  1. One main image
  2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
  3. Limited layers & embellishments
  4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)


STAMPlorations is returning as our wonderful sponsor and is offering this challenge's winner $25 off their next online order!


Let's take a look at what the design team and our guest designer created for inspiration!


Guest Designer:  Maria

A simple color scheme & one small embellishment makes the design.

Joyce
design defined:
Use a simple color scheme.


Karen

Make the extra details the same color as the card base so they stay in the background.


Nancy

Adding a small matte of colour creates visual interest and dimension.


Sue

Overlapping sentiment and image leaves plenty of white space.
