Are you ready for a challenge? I'm excited to see what you'll come up with and I hope you're excited to play.
So...here are the rules, the prize, and all of the goods:
- Make a card containing my favorite things:
- Buttons
- Polka-dots
- ribbon
- chipboard
- a heart
Anything extra that you add is fine, but the card must contain these 5 items.
2. The theme of the card is FRIENDS! Pretty broad, but should be fun, huh?
3. Post a comment linking me to your card by 9:00 a.m. on Monday, June 25th. That way you have all weekend without feeling like you have to rush---this is supposed to be relaxing and therapeutic, remember?
4. I promise I'll try and pick only one winner this time, but don't get angry with me if I can't decide on just one, lol.
5. I'll send the winner a little handmade something from me, plus a copy of the June 2007 Scrapbook Trends magazine, plus they might just find a little extra fluff in their box too.
6. International card-luvin' girls are more than welcome to play! I hope you all will.
7. Oh, yeah, I'll post the winner by 6:00 p.m. on Monday, June 25th---who likes to wait, huh?
I think that ought to cover everything---if you have questions, let me know and I'll try and clear things up.
So....before I head on out, I just wanted to post a card I made for the Color Challenge at the CPS blog this week----Mostly KI Memories here---sure love that stuff---some new-to-me BG rubons, Making Memories ribbon, and the old stand-by Heidi Swapp ghost heart.
Goodnight.
Melis

Okay, I played along. No laughing. Love to make cards, but definitely not my best creative skill ;-) Mine is posted on my blog here: http://lindaalbrecht.typepad.com/simple_things/2007/06/saturday-accomp.html
Not sure if that is a live link, but you get the idea. Thanks for a fun challenge!! Linda
