SC 025/12....

Hope you are all ready for another challenge this week.  I had to set this one & believe me, I had a hard time creating my card.....  Think I would create the card first & then do a sketch, but no, not me.....

Our challenge this week is to use Pink Pirouette & Early Expresso, as well as the sketch provided.....  You are able to use a neutral colour with your creation.

Don't forget, you have a week to finish your creation.  Mr Linky closes Friday night & the Ray of Sunshine will be announced on the Saturday!

Now on with our creations -

Kris -

Shirley -

Vicky -

Ok, now it is your turn....  Create your card, scrapbook page, etc post it to to your blog & then come back & link it up with Mr Linky. 

We look forward to seeing all the wonderful creations each week & we hope this week will be no different!

Happy Stampin'

Vicky

Challenge 24 - Under the Big Top

We hope that you are ready for our new challenge. This week I have provided a sketch which is fairly simple and I want you all to use the stamp set Under the Big Top. This is one that we were given at the Brisbane Regionals last year and I don't think I have used it since, so I am looking for lots of inspiration from you.

Here is the sketch -

And here are the examples.

Kris 

Vicky

Shirley

Ok so now it is your turn.  You have until Friday midnight to add your creation to Mr. Linky and don't forget it doesn't have to be a card, but you must use the sketch and the stamp set.  I cannot wait to see what you have in store for us this week.

On behalf of Vicky and Shirley

Bye for now, Kris.

Anyway, we can only have one winner and we hope that you will agree this card by Alison is really special.  Please pay her a visit and let her know how much you love her card.

Here is our Ray of Sunshine badge for Alison to add  to her blog.
