Festive Friday Challenge #176 - National Wedding Month / Stamping With Melva

Festive Friday Challenge #176 - National Wedding Month

Friday, 17 January 2025

It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge! Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project. We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.

Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!

This week’s challenge FF #176 - National Wedding Month

What would you choose from the Inspo List? I chose white, pearls and tin cans for my card that I made for my nieces' wedding on January 7th! We were excited to to go Mexico to share her special day! Congratulations Danielle and Cliff!

What will you choose from the Inspo List? Create a project and share it with us!
