Think Spring

by GinniGApr 13, 2026
These pictures are NOT black and white! They were taken March 28 and made us think that winter would never end. I saw a layout by Allison Davis using diagonal strips and I wanted to try it. Looks a LOT harder than it was! For the Graphic Design Challenge – I chose the Crayola Crayon ad. My inspirations were the diagonal strips and the many different colors as well as the different fonts on the box. For the Rewind 1-3-5-7 Challenge – 1 glittery embellishment, 3 pictures, 5 patterned papers and 7 popped die cuts. For the 30 Items Prompt - #1.Use "THINK SPRING" as your title. For the 100 Sheets Challenge – 2. For Team A – Challenge #1 –
