Imaginisce February Challenge (Part 1)

Welcome! I'm hoping that you made your way here from Beth's blog. If not, I'm still glad you popped by.
We're up for another exciting challenge this month over at the Imaginisce blog. If you've enjoyed our monthly sketches then I know you'll enjoy what we've got in store for you this year. Each month we'll be doing some kind of challenge, not necessarily sketch ones like before. This is part one of the challenge as a handful of designers will share with your their projects and then half way through the month another group of designers will share some more inspiration.

For example this month we're doing a Color Challenge from this fabulous photo. Isn't it fun??
I decided to play along with the fun theme in the picture and I used the Garden Party collection to make this little paper lanterns.
Wanna play along for a chance to win some goodies? Do you want to know what you could win? Well, there will be 2 prizes this time.

The prize for the Challenge winner:
1. $75 i-top package OR
2. $75 worth of Popular Paper Collections
To be eligible to win you must link your project to the Feb.1st challenge post by Friday, Feb. 25th. Your project must include at least 75% of Imaginisce product.

The 2nd prize is for the hop winner will be an i-Bond with accessories. To be eligible for this prize you must comment on each designer's blog and then back at the Imaginisce blog.

Now we're going to continue with this mini hop and you can make your way over to Keely Yowler's blog. Have fun!!
