Winner | Inspire.Create.Challenge #196

Good morning.  I am going to start with an apology today.  The winner of this challenge was meant to have been announced the weekend before last.  Unfortunately I have had, what seems like, a continuous bout of ill health just recently, nothing serious but all of which have made me feel very under the weather.  I am hoping that my run of bad luck is at an end and we can get back on track!

As a result, Challenge #198 will be launched on 3 August to give my amazing team some time to create some beautiful samples for you.  Spoiler alert - think circles!!!

Without further ado, the winner of Challenge #196 is...


Jolanda Johnstone




Well done Jolanda, we loved the way you used the orange and lemon colours and the different layers and textures!
