This week's JustRite Friday Challenge #052 is to use this Spring inspiration photo . . .
You may either use the overall photo as inspiration for your project OR the color palette from the photo. You may use one, any combination, or all of the colors listed. Copic color equivalents, given for reference only, are:
Y21-Buttercup Yellow
YR65-Atoll (coral/apricot)
YG63-Pea Green (spring green)
B63-Light Hydrangea (violet blue)
Using Copic markers is certainly welcome (along with any additional values of these shades that are needed), but NOT a requirement of the challenge. Neutrals from the photo, of cream and brown, may also be added to the color palette.
This week's grand prize challenge winner will receive: A $75 JustRite Gift Certificate to spend any way you'd like . . . from any of our Cling stamp sets or Original Ribbed stamps; to Copics, Spellbinders dies to match our stamps, JustRite Custom Dies, Memento Ink Pads or Memento Markers -- YOU name the prize!
Three honorable mention winners will each receive a $25 JustRite Gift Certificate, to spend any way they choose!

Sharon Harnist (Copic and JustRite design team member) used a flower from JustRite Original ribbed Mother Nature's Gifts 3-1/4" set to create this Spring tag. I used 3 of the colors from the photo (yellow, apricot & green), and the overall floral design inspiration from the photo:
Beate Johns used the tulips from our Breath of Spring large oval JustRite Original set, combined with a pretty frame from our Fancy Labels Cling stamp set, and all of the colors from the palette, for this gorgeous Spring "Thinking of You" card:
Lori Craig (Copic Central & NE U.S. Certification Instructor) made this beautiful thank you card using our 3" round JustRite Original You're So Sweet set -- wonderful use of 3 of the colors!
Bianca Mandity is the newest mixed media Copic Instructor and used our Special Occasions font on a page in her art journal for custom journaling, along with a border from our 1-5/8" round Cardmaking Kit in unexpected ways -- to highlight a portion of a photo and as "wings" on some of her journaling! The papers Bianca chose incorporated all of the soft Spring colors from the inspiration photo:
Kathy Jones (Australian Copic Certification Instructor and JustRite design team member) used all of the colors of this challenge in her sweet Birdhouses card!
Jennie Lin Black (Southwest U.S. Copic Instructor) also used our Birdhouses set, for this sweet Birthday card:
