So today saw the close of the Creative Collective :: Spring Craft Project. I am sure that I am speaking for all the Creative Collective girls when I say that we had some fantastic submissions from everyone that entered!

Above are the four projects that caught my eye for one reason or another! I have to say that I am loving the zippered pouch by Ellie!

A big THANK YOU to everyone who took the time to participate in the first Creative Collective project. We have another exciting project to share with you tomorrow for the month of November, be sure to check back then! In the meantime pop on over to the Facebook Page and the Flickr Group to see all the fab craftiness from the Spring Craft Project!

creative collective spring project :: my creation

Well here it is! My creative contribution to the Creative Collective's Spring Craft Challenge. A very long Scalloped Bunting made with some pretty fabrics that I have had for a little while but just didn't know what to do with them!

I will be back later with a wrap up of the project including my favourites!

inspiration - spring craft challenge....

I am on struggle street trying to find ideas for the Creative Collective Spring Craft Challenge! All I know is that I want to use paper..... I turned to the blog of the very talented Paige Evans who not only is a very talented scrapbooker but is lucky enough to be on the design team for American Crafts - my favourite scrapbooking company!

I love the way Paige has a certain knack for whipping up her own fabulous embellishments for her pages. Here are a few of my favourites...

Lots of inspiration here......

I am sure that you would agree that she is one very talented lady - who hopefully as we speak is in labour with her first baby - sending you bring on labour vibes Paige!

creative collective - spring craft challenge....

Ok, so here I introduced you to Creative Collective - a group of bloggers who have joined forces to bring you fun and exciting challenges. I am very excited to welcome you to the very first Creative Collective Challenge!

Here's the details......

BE INSPIRED
The theme is SPRING - if you are lucky enough to be in Brisbane today you will find it easy to find lots of inspiring Spring things with this amazing weather we are experiencing!

CREATE IT
Ok so now you need to use the inspiration gathered to create something crafty based on the theme SPRING! It could be a scrapbook page, a card, a collage, a stitched project, a piece of jewellery, the choice is yours.

SHARE IT
Once you have completed the project, take a photo and upload it to the Creative Collective Flickr Group so that we can see what is inspiring you this Spring.

The project runs from today - 4 October 2010 to 31st October 2010.

After 31st October 2010 each of the ten Creative Collective Members will select their favourite projects and feature them on our blogs. I am pretty sure that I might add a few sneak peaks from the Flickr group throughout the month also! Each of the Creative Collective Members will be participating and creating something Spring too!

I am looking forward to seeing all the creative, crafty creations! Goodluck!

I am heading outstide with Master N to enjoy this sunshine and think up a fab Spring Crafty Creation!
