Hello, my name is Elizabeth Sammartino. I am a graphic designer and also a huge fan of board game. Ever since I was a kid, I enjoyed playing board games because they allowed me to interact with others, without getting anxiety about holding a conversation because we would be playing a game. That is why, I wanted to combine these two things that I love.

the board
the board includes five stopping points, where players will have time to work on their projects. it also spots for players to draw cards or pick-up Inspiral tokens which will give the players random amounts of points. for the cards that players can draw, there are three spots each for text, photo and color cards. as well as four spots for the draw cards.
besides points for players to land on, the board also includes a party code, which allows them to be in the same lobby as one another while playing on their phones (more on that in the app area), as well as including four spots for the cards to be placed.

difficulty level cards
these cards have two options, one option is the easier asset to use within the design and the second option is harder to use within the design. The easier options will give the player one point, whereas the harder asset will give the player three points. These points will be given at the end of the game depending on if the other players vote that the design was good.
prompt cards
the first card, the draw card, like difficulty level cards, the player has a chance to earn 1 or 3 points depending on if they draw the object themselves or not.
the second, the idea card, is the card grabbed at the beginning of them game and will give the players the basic parameters for their design.
