Hi Guys! 👋
For #ConfigMakeathon, we built a Y2K-inspired personal card maker using only Figma ✨
It’s
a playful space where you can design your own digital card—add your
voice, signature, stickers, and shape it however you like. Think of it
like a tiny, expressive corner of the internet that feels uniquely you.
You
can also explore cards from others, save the ones you love, and
discover personalities beyond portfolios. It’s part experiment, part
community idea.
We
didn’t fully finish everything we imagined—but even in its current
state, it showed us something exciting: you can recreate an entire era’s
vibe using Figma + AI + a bit of creative chaos.
This could evolve into something bigger—a shared space for identity, expression, and connection across the design community.
If this resonates, would love for you to check it out and share your thoughts 💛

FrameOrbit — Config Makeathon Submission 📸🌀
Sharing second project for the Config Makeathon: FrameOrbit.
https://cedar-thaw-04755246.figma.site/
Project published to the community.
FrameOrbit is a playful camera canvas experience where taking photos feels more spatial, visual, and alive.
The idea started from a simple question:
What if captured photos didn’t disappear into a hidden gallery, but stayed around your camera as part of the experience?
In FrameOrbit, the camera view sits in the center of a soft canvas. Every time the user captures a photo, it instantly appears as a framed image around the camera. As more photos are taken, the canvas starts to build a visual orbit of moments around the live camera view.
Users can:
Capture photos directly from the center camera frame
See each image appear instantly around the canvas
Apply different photo styles like Normal, Noir, Warm, Cool, Vivid, Fade, Retro, and Neon
Drag photos around the canvas
Tap any photo to open it in a cinematic full-screen viewer
Move between images using previous/next navigation
Save all captured images or reset the canvas
The goal was to make photo capturing feel less like a utility and more like a small creative ritual, a live memory board that grows with every shot.
Built with Figma Make, I focused on creating a polished interactive prototype with a soft visual system, floating photo cards, smooth viewer experience, and a simple flow that can be understood in seconds:
Capture → frame appears → build your orbit → explore your moments.
FrameOrbit turns the camera into a canvas. ✨

Make sense
I built a digital paper fashion atelier. It's called Vogue & Scissors.
It started with a simple wish: I wanted to try on different outfits on myself online. But make it 1960s Vogue, inspired by collages, cutouts, and paper dolls.
Built the entire thing in @Figma Make, first thing I've ever vibecoded with it.
I used Figma Weave to transform the dress images.
Every visitor gets a doll and a wardrobe. You mix, match, and layer vintage-inspired pieces to style your own look on an interactive canvas.
In Vogue & Scissors the wardrobe never runs out, the scissors are optional, and nothing ever tears.
I love how Figma Make is the kind of tool that lets you focus on what something should feel like, not how to ship it. I can’t wait to use it for real projects at Macromo.Â
Made for the @contra x Figma Makethon #FigmaMakeathon
Try it yourself, link is in the first comment.
Love the visual direction here. The attention to detail really stands out.
Hey there! I'm new to Contra, and I've decided to take part in the Config Makeathon by Figma 🙌
I'm building Trazo: an app to train your creativity
These days we all have AI tools at our fingertips that boost our work — but what changes the result is the creativity you bring to them. And I believe that can be trained.
Here's how it works:
1. You get an ambiguous shape — a blob, a stone, a smudge. Something that isn't anything yet.
2. You look at it, rotate it, flip it around until something appears. A face, a bird, a wave — whatever you see.
3. You draw on top and turn it into that. You give it a name.
4. And at the end, the reveal: it shows you what everyone else saw in that same shape. Same blob, a hundred different things.
Being creative isn't about knowing how to draw. It's about seeing differently. And that you can train.
More coming soon.
Love thisss
