Hello friends! I know it’s been almost 2 months since my last card challenge. That was never my intention, but life has been very busy. My family has multiple birthdays at the end of August and in September. My daughter’s school year started. (distance learning only right now) Then Western Washington suffered numerous wildfires. Some of them were only a few miles away. Very scary. We’ve finally been blessed with rain. Most of the fires are now out and the smoky air has cleared.
I probably won’t be posting regular challenges, but I’m going to try for at least one a month.
The new challenge is Same, but Different. Create at least 2 cards using the same layout and pattern papers; but mix them up for a different look. There is no time frame. Share your cards on my Instagram or Facebook pages. Be sure to check out all the entries for extra inspiration and leave some love. We can always use some friendly encouragement. 💖
