WOW! We are so thrilled with the turnout for our "Debut Challenge" ! Thank you so much for participating and showing your support! What WONDERFUL creations ... and so much fun visiting so many new folks! We're glad you enjoyed our 1st challenge ... now let's try it again!

This week's RAISE THE BAR challenge is the "GIFT THAT KEEPS GIVING". Create a card/project using something you received as a gift from a friend. It could be paper, embellishments, stamped images .... well, you get the picture!!

Last fall, my friend Linda Davis (waving Hi!) gave me several sheets of this (The Paper Studio) musical designer paper and I have used it over & over on so many different styles of cards!! It worked great for holiday cards .... vintage cards ... birthday cards. This is definitely the "gift that kept giving"!!
