Challenges and a dash of inspiration for August 2025

   Good morning, krafty friends!

We are posting all of our August Challenges today so get ready to have some fun getting krafty this month!  August reminds me of hot days lounging by the pool, sipping on a cold icy drink, taking in festivals, and the excitement of back to school supplies! We hope during this busy month you'll find some krafty time for yourself and play along with our challenges!

The themed challenge for August is make a Children's card (think birthday, congrats, back to school, encouragment etc), the second theme is 3 or more colours! 

The Christmas challenge is Snow men/ buddies! 
As always you can participate in the Anything but a card challenge (think bookmarks, ATC, Tags, Journals, calanders etc) 

Feel free to choose one prompt or mix and match!

Check out some fabulous inspiration we have from our Krafty Team!

First up we have a this super stylish mini fold out album cover from Krafty Design Team member, Lindsy featuring What's the scoop!

I just adore how vibrant this album cover is. I feel like my preteen niece would think it's so cool! 

Heather has made the cutest baby card featuring Look out world!

As always, Krafty Girl Heather has the perfect paper to go with this stamp
set! Those clouds are so much fun! 

Alexis has a beautiful card featuring Mermaid Kisses

I love the mix of pattern papers and her multi coloured card! 

As everyone is busy with summer plans, we were not able to make as many cards for the challenges , so instead I thought we would showcase some cards featured on Kraftin Kimmie Facebook Group! 

Customer and Krafty Friend, Michelle may have read our minds for August's challenges. 

I just love the soft pastel blend with Geo 2 Stencil it reminded me that I need to bring out that stencil more, as I do love any of the geo stencils

I also love the soft simple colour palette and blending on these cards featuring

Flaky Friends
