#tgifc560 Inspiration Challenge

 Welcome back to TGIF Challenges, friends! We’re so happy to have you creating with us again this week as we dive into a beautiful Inspiration Challenge. Our photo features a stunning tiered cake adorned with soft florals, delicate details, and glowing candlelight—an image that feels romantic, elegant, and full of celebration. You might be inspired by the gentle color palette, the floral accents, the lace-like textures, or the overall feeling of a special occasion. Whether you create a card, scrapbook page, wedding or anniversary project, or even elegant packaging or décor, we can’t wait to see how this lovely inspiration comes to life through your creativity. Be sure to share your projects with us here and we would love if you share on your socials too! Tag us @TGIFChallenges.

As always, thank you so much to all those that participated in last week's challenge, and a HUGE CONGRATS to our WINNER -

#tgifc559 Sketch Challenge

 Welcome back to TGIF Challenges, friends! We’re excited to dive into a brand new Sketch Challenge this week, and this one is clean, modern, and full of creative potential. 

The sketch features a bold central panel with a striking diagonal element, layered neatly on a larger background—perfect for showing off patterned paper, color blocking, or even a dramatic stamped or ink-blended design. You can keep the layout crisp and graphic or soften it up with texture, embellishments, and layers. This sketch works beautifully for cards, but it would also shine on a scrapbook page, a framed piece of décor, or even handmade packaging. However you choose to interpret it, we can’t wait to see how you make it your own!

We loved all the creative cards last week! Thank you all so much for sharing with us! Big congrats to our challenge winner -

#tgifc558 Color Challenge

Welcome back to TGIF Challenges, friends—and welcome to our first challenge of 2026! We’re so excited to kick off January creating right alongside you. This week’s Color Challenge features a beautifully cool and calming palette of Balmy Blue, Smoky Slate, and Highland Heather. This wintery trio feels like a quiet snowfall—soft blues, gentle grays, and a hint of lavender drifting through the season. It’s perfect for frosty holiday cards, serene winter scrapbook pages, elegant tags, or even cozy packaging and décor as we settle into the new year. However you choose to use these colors, we can’t wait to see your creative spin!

Thank you all for wrapping up your creative 2025 year with us at TGIF Challenges! We've loved seeing your projects week after week. Congrats to our final challenge winner of 2025 - 

Now, take a look at how our Design Team played with this gorgeous combo!
