December 9th-10th saw the 6th Inspired by Memories online crop. What fantastic people we have entering our inspiring weekends. I plan the challenges trying very hard to ensure they remain unique and not to duplicate any previous tasks, I also participate in these which can only be described as mind stretching to say the least ensuring that all our valued members are in some way stretched to come out of their comfort zone and try something new and these challenges were no exception.
They have 2 hours for each challenge, not all of them must be completed, after all it is for fun so as many as can be managed. The co petition cut off is the following Tuesday to keep it real as we all have jobs and parenting to attend too right? Each completed page is then be entered for the cash prize.
All skill levels take part in the two day event which is held from 10am til 8pm both days. I host the event via video link, i like to think in a unique style and oh what fun we have. I've detailed below a brief description of the challenges and shown some of the designs that were as a result.
