Good morning!
This month's prompt certainly offers a lot of elements to pique your interest:
But just in case, here are some ideas to get you started:
- Rosettes and pinwheels – always a popular design element for celebrations
- Dymo-like sentiments – white text on another colour
- Words – use any of the words in the image as your sentiment, whether in English or French: Thank You, Hello, Hooray
- Uplifting theme – make a card to send positive vibes or extra courage
- Fringe - whether made from trim, with a die, or by just snipping with scissors
- Washi tape - use it to attach papers, create tabs or to make a background pattern
- Illustrative patterned paper - lots of collections feature this style now, especially Crate Paper but if you prefer bold patterns then there are also big dots and stripes in the image too
- Fruit - watermelon is definitely one of the things I love about summer, but you can dig about in your stash to see if there are other fruits you can use
- Mini envelope - use a mini envelope as a pocket on your card or use tiny envelope stamps to create an orderly design of envelopes in different colours
- Birds - the parrot in the image gives you free rein to use more exotic colours for any birds you feature
- Kraft/woodgrain - use this as your neutral to contrast with much brighter colours
I hope you find those ideas useful. :)
Happy crafting!
