You know those hours we all spend perusing Pinterest? They can be really fun and relaxing...and inspiring. Most of us pin (a lot!), but then we might not do anything with the pins. Well, we want to HELP you turn your favorite pins into projects!
So here's the challenge...
1. Find a pin that you LOVE...it can be a color combo, a photo, a technique or design, a pattern or title...just pick something that GRABS you.
2. Next step: turn it into Prima project! Yes-use whatever grabs you and translate that into a card, tag, layout or mixed-media Prima-based project.
3. We would LOVE to see your Pin Spin projects. Just post them on FB and tag our Fan Page, or post them on your blog and link us here, or email them to us (with "February Pin Spin" in the subject): sharon@primamarketinginc.com by Feb 28th.
We will pick a random winner at the end of the month to win some fabulous Prima to help you on your NEXT Pin Spin!
So, our talented gals on the design team had fun with this month's Pin Spin. Let's see what they pinned...and "spinned" !

Stacey Young's Pin:
"I really adore pinterest and I have so many gorgeous, inspirational pins
that I almost couldn't pick just one!!! But, I did, and this one sent my
creativity into overdrive with it's gorgeous hues, and the scene up at the top
of the ocean. I found a picture to match and, knowing it was a beachy
one, I knew exactly where this layout would take me".
Stacey's Pin Spin:
Stacey did a fabulous job of visualizing a layout based on the photo and color palette from her pin!
Using paint, stencils, and flowers to pull in the beachy feel, Stacey topped everything off with a few seashells and Prima metal pieces.
