Welcome to Aspiring to Creativity's 1st Glimmer Challenge!
The Challenge: On the 1st Friday of every month, we will be issuing a card challenge that will incorporate up to 2 elements from the following:
- sketch
- theme
- colors
- inspiration photo
- specific crafting tool

For this month, our first challenge, Sabrina has designed an original card sketch and chosen 6 colors. All colors need to be incorporated into your creation to qualify. Artistic license is, of course, permitted around the sketch.

Thanks for such a fun challenge! :) After doing it, I realized that my card is a basic A2 size. :( Hope this doesn't disqualify me. I appreciate your making me think outside my creative box! ;) Looking forward to more challenges!
