New Challenge @ Cardz 4 Guyz #C4G361

 


Today begins a new challenge at...

Cardz 4 Guyz // #C4G361 ...A masculine challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is Grateful/Thankful/Blessed!!  We have so much to be thankful for and we should be intentional about let those we are thankful know it...card can do just that.  This challenge gave me the opportunity to tell my hubby how thankful I am for him!!  

C4G361 // Grateful*Thankful*Blessed
We hope you will join the fun and play along with our new challenge...who can you let know that you are thankful for them??  Hop on over to our blog and get all the details for playing along with us.  While you are there you will find lots of great inspiration from the rest of the design team.

2 other challenges inspired today's card...

TGIF Challenges // #tgif500 ...A technique challenge!!  Torn paper is the technique that is being highlighted for this challenge.  I used Night Of Navy card stock from Stampin Up and created a torn edge down the side of my card.  I used to use this technique all the tie when I first started card making...it is easy to do and adds so much to your card...thanks for the reminder to go back to the simple techniques!!


Allsorts Challenge // #AC808 ...An "anything goes" challenge with an optional theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is "ribbon or twine".  I used two colors of twine on today's card and tied on a sailboat charm.  The stamps I used on today's card are retired from Stampin Up...I love this map background stamp, it is the perfect backdrop for nautical cards.  Oh and card #2 also fits this challenge!!

Card #2 was inspired by 3 challenges...

FarmQuest Challenge // #FQCB64 ...A farm & country challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is "frozen pond or creek" and this time we were given several photos fhat could be used to create our card.  I picked one of them and simply framed it with card stock, tied a sheer ribbon around it, and finished it off with a snowflake charm.

Alphabet Challenge // 15NOV24 ...An A/B/C challenge!!  Q is for QUICK!!  This was such a quick card...when you are given an image to print, that makes for a very quick and easy challenge.  So this challenge was perfect for pairing up with the FQCB challenge above.

As You See It Challenge // #AYSI337 ...A speed challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this challeng is trees...so I picked on of the FarmQuest photos that had some beautiful pines as the backdrop for the frozen creek.  A speed challenge means that you need to create a card in under 10 mins...this one took about 6 minutes but only because I had a hard time getting my ribbon and charm to lay correctly.

  6. Those trees add a lovely dramatic backdrop to your winter scene DJ and your printed paper was a great timesaver. Love the addition of the bow and charm too. Thanks for playing along with us over at As You See It for our speed challenge!
