Festive Friday

Festive Friday Card Making and Paper Crafting Challenge #FF0210

Welcome to another Festive Friday card making and paper crafting challenge! For #FF0210, our festivity is Hot Air Balloon Day, which is on June 9th. The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up! And guess what? Your project doesn’t have to be about Hot Air Balloon Day – at all! Don’t believe us, take a look at our designs below ? The selected festivity is just a unique way to come up with a fun and interesting inspiration list!

Create a new project inspired by our challenge. You can create any project as long as it includes at least three items from the festivity Inspiration List.
The Design Team chooses 3 of their favorite entries for the Festive Friday Faves for each challenge. The Faves get a banner to display proudly on their blog.
To be considered for the Festive Friday Faves, you can’t enter into more than five challenges (including ours). Why? We want people to find inspiration from our challenge, not the other way around. Creating something and then finding challenges where it fits does not match up with the spirit of our challenge.
If you have a blog, you should include the challenge badge or the challenge board in your post and link back to our challenge.
If you are posting in a gallery (like Splitcoast, Pinterest, or any other social media platform), make sure you mention our challenge with a link back to the challenge and use the hashtag #festivefridaychallenge and the hashtag found on the challenge (eg: #FF0001)

So let’s check out the Design Team’s fantastic creations this week! Click on their names to go to their individual project posting.
