2022 card challenge - April

[Mystik Nat]

Evening all!

This month the prompt is a bit more pattern-focused if that's your thing (I do love a bit of bold patterned paper I must admit), but if pattern isn't your thing there are still elements that can be easily interpreted on a card.

The focus colour for April is: Green (remember it doesn't have to be the main colour scheme of your card, it can simply be an accent colour or a pop of contrast to the rest of your colour scheme)

And the pin-spiration is....

I look forward to seeing how you intepret it - remember I've listed a few tips over on the blog post for this month.

The full instructions and details for this year's challenge can be found in the intro post on my blog here.

Past prompts will all be tagged under 2022 card challenge on my blog so you can find them easily in one place.

Also for those of you on Instagram, I'll be using the hashtag #2022handmadecardchallenge to share my projects there, so feel free to use this tag on Instagram as well!


Points for this challenge:
This challenge scores you 20 points. As with all the other UKS challenges you can only claim this once a month.
But remember you can also claim points for up to 10 cards you make in any month.

Happy crafting!

Love this. It will take me right out of my comfort zone!

Great colours and patterns Nat, love that navy and I still need to make a baby boy card so the paler blue is ideal - just need to stop everything else and get on with cards.

I have plenty of ideas, but whether I will remember them when I actually sit down at my craft desk again is another matter!

Mine has a little bit of green on it, though it may be hard to see in the photo. The 2 cats are a nod to the couple under the umbrella.

Beautiful cards ladies and I love the mood board

I went with greens and blues from the palette and quite a bold print for me

Our much loved neighbours move out this morning and their daughter and family move in

This is for our new neighbours … though we have known her since she was a little girl

Lovely card, Karen - a very appropriate sentiment - and that's very pretty, Ellie.
