Hello friends! I have a new card challenge. My goal is to post a new one every week. Everyone is welcome to join me by sharing their cards on my Instagram or Facebook pages.
The new challenge is Create Your Own Background. Make a card by designing your own background. You could use dies, stamps, inks, and more. The possibilities are endless.  Be creative and have fun with the challenge. There is no time frame. Be sure to check out all the entries for extra inspiration and leave some love. We can all use friendly encouragement right now. ?

  • I am loving your challenges even if I don't post them often (it's been a busy 2 weeks.) They really get me to think about using things differently, and I enjoy seeing everyone's creations. Thank you!

  • I really like the backgrounds that you made on your cards.

    I made a card and stamped two backgrounds for my card.
