Welcome to the Hotspot where each month We’ll scope out what’s “hot”, trendy, popular or in style at the moment or sometimes we’ll go retro and visit trends from the past and challenge you to use that as inspiration!
Hello! welcome back to The Hotspot this month! Before we go on let's see the winner of our last challenge...Congratulations goes out to link 24, Mandy. You can email me at studio313creations@yahoo.com to redeem your prize!
And our Star player this month is also Mandy, I couldn't pick just one of her cards because they were all so stinkin' cute!!!
I really enjoyed all of your cards in last months challenge so thank you to all of our players! I want you all to know I did get to see all of them but blogger is giving me trouble with the comment forms :(
As usual you will have until the last day of the month to link up your entry, be sure to link back to The Hotspot in your post and you will be entered to win 25.00 worth of digi's from McMahon Five Designs store! Our new challenge will begin on the 1st of every month. You don't have to use any of our images to play (of course we're happy for you to though!)and you can enter as often as you like!
We have a few extra little surprises ;) this month for you to enjoy
The first is this little "Quick Card" freebie, done in several of falls trendiest colors! Link up your entry by August 11th to receive this free digi! It's great when you need a super fast last minute card, because you can print and leave it plain and simple and your ready to go or if you have the time dress it up any way you like, as I did on these samples! You can see them individually further down.
This month we are going to use Pantone's top color trends for fall and winter 2011. Have to say I'm LOVING these colors, they are so warm together! In fact they have inspired me to do a whole collection of new dp so be watchin' for them coming soon! ;) And Please keep checking in on us this month we may have a surprise or two to share with you! You can enter your card or project using one, all or any combination of these colors.
Now on to some beautiful inspiration from the talented ladies on our design team!
