Hey guys, I'm happy to bring a new challenge to you this month. A challenge and a contest! Yeah! And this one is new, we're calling it the Photo Inspiration Challenge. We're looking for one winner who will win a guest designer spot for a future release!
I came across this gorgeous photo from Debee Ruiz on Pinterest and immediately contacted her for permission to use it as the subject of our first Photo Inspiration Challenge. There are so many inspiring elements jam packed into this photo, the stripes, all the tone on tone whites, and the pops of pink and yellow!
