Challenge #274 - The Meaning of Mama

It's my turn this week to come up with a Fill in the Blank Challenge, and seeing as how it's Mother's Day in North American this weekend, I wanted to know what you think makes Moms so special. How would you fill in the blank: "The Best Thing about Mothers is: ______________."?

For a Fill in the Blank Challenge, you complete the sentence by filling in the blank, then you make your project based on the words you used to fill in the blank. How would you fill in this blank? Now, take on the challenge of making something amazing with it!

 And make sure to tell us, in your blog post, how you Filled in the Blank!

     

Here are the best attributes of mothers according to our Design Team:

Heather Cooper

Heather C. thinks that the best thing about mothers is unconditional love.

Heather Heroldt

Heather H. thinks of her mom's presence and drinking tea together.

Jan Clothier

Jan says the best thing is sharing moments great and small!

Jane Knudsen

Love is how Jane would fill in the blank!

Joanne James

Joanne also thinks unconditional love is the best thing about mothers!

LeAnne Pugliese
LeAnne's is taking a break this week.

• Create any card, scrapbooking page, 3D project or packaging project that fits the challenge.
• Fill in the blanks with the words that are right for you and then create your project with those words in mind. Tell us, in your blog or on your site, what words you used.
• Please include the challenge graphic and link back to the challenge in your blog post. Turn off word verification so we can send you lots of feedback. Make sure you link the post not the whole blog to the Linky. Use AYSI#274 when uploading to a public gallery.
• If you’re unsure about ‘the rules’, check the details under the Challenge Guidelines tab.
• You can combine our challenge with up to 3 other compatible challenges.
• We do reserve the right to delete, or not consider, entries that do not comply with these guidelines.

Winners of Challenge #273 - They Call It The Blues

We're keen to announce the winners of Challenge #273 because the Featured Artist will be our Guest Designer for the next Recipe Challenge in two weeks! We're very excited to work with the winner! We were definitely not singing the blues about the entries we received for our monochromatic palette for this challenge. They were "blue"tiful!

After deliberations we were "azure" about our winners and here they are:

Our Top Pick is: Lisa K.

Lisa's beautiful floral image is stunning, stamped in Versamark and Navy ink and clear embossed, then masterfully coloured in using the challenge blues with just the right touch, giving an airy lightness to the bouquet and a luminous quality as well! Lisa, you made the blues glow!

Our Featured Artist is: Shirley Gentry

Shirley created her own background paper that she calls SSP (Shirley's Special Paper) using the challenge colours and white. It has just the right feel for this jaunty, adventurous little card. The Design Team loved the look of the 3D sails and how the little sailboat seems to come alive, sailing right off the card front in nautical navy! 

Congratulations, Shirley, you will be our next Guest Designer for our Recipe Challenge in 2 weeks time. We will be in touch!

                                                      

And we think you may want to check out the following Honorable Mentions on their sites:

  2. Jolanda Johnston

  6. Deborah Wheeler

  7. Ingen

 

Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone who played along! Come and check out our new Fill in the Blank Challenge tomorrow morning on our blog! Our winners today can pick up their badges on this page and display them with pride on their blogs or sites.
