It's TODAY!!!!

Woohooo! Our official first WAA Challenge!

You have seen the lovely prizes (Thanks Wicked Princesses)

It is now time to reveal our first inspirational ad!

All you need to do is create a LO inspired by this advert, and use journalling on the LO before midnight August 25th.

You may be inspired by the colours, the layout of the advert, the sentiment...anything!

To enter all you need to to is post your LO on your blog, with an explanation of how this ad inspired you and leave a link in the comments section of this post.

Please feel free to ask any questions in the comments section of this post also:)

And here is how our amazing CT were inspired...

Lauren was inspired by the background print, the colours and has used lots of heartfelt journalling on her LO, like a letter to her gorgeous son:) Gina was also inspired by the background in the advert (its almost impossible NOT to be!) and the cuddling (how gorgeous is this photo??? How can you NOT feel the love?)

Kirsty has again used the background as inspiration and borrowed the colour combination to create this LO about her son. the journalling is again heartfelt and like a letter to her son




And wow..Lisa has created an amazing 8x11.5 LO inspired again by the background of the advert, the layout and the heartfelt sentiment.

We are really excited to see what you create, and can't wait to visit your blog to see how you have been inspired! So, what are you waiting for???? Get messy and start creating!!!!

  11. Congrats on your first challenge, the DT samples are awsome! :) This ad is just brilliant - if only every single one of those advertisers could have been equal genious when creating their ads! It's touching and it gives something back to the viewer. Great!
    Here's my take, thank you so much for inspiration! :D
