Challenge #529 - Sketch

Welcome to our first sketch challenge for 2024! I've got a sketch that may inspire you to think Valentine's Day; those are the cards I'm working on right now. However, if you're not feeling the "love" please feel free to substitute out the heart with another shape that is NOT a circle, square or triangle!

Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card. 

Our design team has created the following cards to inspire you:

Challenge #528 - Colours

Happy 2024 and welcome to our challenge! It's Jeanne hosting this month. If you are new to us, we are a challenge blog dedicated to the Clean and Simple style of card making, and we alternate between color challenges and sketch challenges. If you have joined in our challenges in the past, we're glad you're here again!

For our color challenges, you must use all of the stated challenge colors. You may also use neutral colors; however, the challenge colors should be the most noticeable ones featured on your card. We use Stampin' Up! color names for reference, but you are welcome to use any other companies' products as long as you match the challenge colors as closely as possible.

We are excited to announce that we have a few new additions to our team - welcome Deborah, Laura and Suzy! We look forward to seeing all your wonderful cards!

Fabulous Favorites - Seasonal Challenge #527

Thank you to everyone who got into the holiday spirit with us in our December challenge!  The Design Team loved seeing all of the creative entries!

The intent of our Seasonal Challenge was to have our participants turn our challenges from 2023 into festive cards.  We felt that for our Fabulous Favorites voting, we needed to focus our attention on the clean and simple holiday-themed cards that best represented the challenge chosen by the participants and that followed our challenge guidelines.  With that in mind, here are our winners, listed in order of entry into the challenge.  We have an additional winner this time because the voting resulted in a tie!

 
(Kristin deserves an extra round of applause for combining two CC&S challenges!)
