We all may be just getting over the holidays but Minted keeps us designers on our toes early. The Making Spirits Bright photo card challenge just wrapped up and it was a whirlwind of festive ideas these past few weeks as I tried to enter as many submissions as I could. I was able to get in 5 gold foil designs and 10 non foil designs, which is pretty good. I always set a goal for much more, but with this pregnancy coming to an end and having other projects to work on, it was tough to dedicate more time to the challenge.

You can view all my submissions below and voting is open till May 18th!! Enjoy!

My friends over at Night Owl Paper Goods are having a great little freebie to celebrate National Card and Letter Writing Month this April. So now up until March 31st, you can get 2 free cards when you spend up to $25 and 5 free cards when you spend over $25. That sounds good to me! Spread the love this spring and get some awesome goodies for yourself in the process. Have fun shopping!
