Good morning from the team here at River of Creativity.

We have had some lovely messages asking if all is OK which we appreciate and apologise for taking so long to update everyone. As a team we have had distractions away from craft but are dedicated to returning to our normal schedule very soon.

In the meantime, here are the Shoutouts from our May challenge along with our banner for you to display on our own blog sidebars......

A pretty pencil case from Betta who was entry no 12
This beautiful frame from Michelle who was entry no 13
A journal page from Donna entry no 22

We will see you all again very soon and thank you for your support of River of Creativity.

April Shoutouts

Good morning and apologies we are running rather late with our April Shoutouts.

It was another encouraging month moving into our new format of 'no cards allowed' and you shared some wonderful projects with us, our thanks to all who joined in and we enjoyed seeing every one of your entries. But there can only be three shoutouts, so without further ado here are those entries selected by the Design Team.

Entry no 4 Leslie
We could all do with a bit of tropical sunshine
Entry no 23 Chris
These were delightful Easter gifts for her Grandchildren
Entry no 31 Lorraine
A pretty box to hide those precious items

Well done to you all, please collect our Shoutout badge to display on your own blogs.

Don't forget our May challenge is still running, the theme is Anything Goes with the option to do some Recycling on your project.

Revamped River of Creativity March 2022 Challenge! #11

Hello everyone and thank you for stopping by to check out the NEW River of Creativity!  The main change to the challenge is we no longer accept cards for entry.  We want your books, felting, crochet, sculpting, mixed media, yummy, inky, messy goodness!  Now, as before the challenge will run from the 5th until the end of the month and we will continue to have Shout Outs as well.  However, we will also be inviting one lucky entrant to join us as a Guest Designer at a future date!

For your very first challenge we welcome Anything Goes as our always theme, but will have the occasional optional theme as well - and this months option theme is SQUARES.  Show us how you repurposed the left over tile squares from your recent home improvement project - or maybe you created a blanket using squares of fabric? How about brownie squares using your secret ingredient (you can tell us!) and the square scrapbook layout you made to commemorate your child helping you bake those squares!? Really, once you let your imagination go the possibilities are endless!  

Here is some inspiration from the Design Team:

I hope you are as excited as we are!  Now get creating!

Let me tell you that it was harder than ever last month, but we have agreed on our top 3.   Yes Brenda and Christi were part of the process with out different styles and tastes it means that we are likely to choose different pieces.

So without further ado our top 3 Shoutouts are

No. 4 Leslie T


No 18 Mia


No 52 Tinz

Congratulations girls I think of couple of you are past Shoutouts well done!  I hope each of you will display your Shoutout Badge (hopefully with a link back to us ;-) with pride.
