10:00 am CST Scrapper's Cards Challenge

One day I was sitting in my scrapbooking room and had an epiphany about the perfect scrapper’s card to make while looking at some coin envelopes that are sized 3 ½” x 6”. I have since discovered that the old small letter envelopes which everyone used to use for correspondence are sized 3 5/8” x 6 ½” which also makes them perfect for mailing this sized card.

These cards are made literally from scraps and because of the size of the finished product, they are perfect for scrapbookers. The finished size of all these cards is 3" gallery www.heartinhandscraps.com http: div>

For this challenge, you need to make 2- 3”x6” cards to qualify for the random prize drawing. Feel free to copy any of my designs here or make up your own. I think that you will find that these go together super-fast & easy and are a lot of fun to make! Have fun!!!

This is the prize that will be awarded randomly to one of the participants from this challenge. Just make sure to upload your cards into the 10:00 Scrapper's Card Gallery by 7:00 pm Sunday night to be eligible to win...

7:00 am CST Art Inspiration Challenge:

Good morning! I hope that you are ready to go for a day full of inspiration and creating. This first challenge this morning is based upon an art inspiration piece. Art is totally subjective, as is inspiration, so that means that there is absolutely no right or wrong for this challenge. Look at this art piece and try to find some sort of creative inspiration from it. The part that inspires you will probably be different for everyone. You may create any kind of paper project for this challenge.

Spa Dreams by Don Li-Leger

This is the prize involved with this challenge. It will be awarded by random drawing from everyone who uploads a project from this challenge by 7:00 CST Sunday evening. Upload your project into the 7:00 am Art Inspiration Gallery.

Here is my layout that was inspired by the art piece. As you can see, I was inspired by the lay-out design of the original piece.

I'll be back at 5:00 pm CST with the next challenge...

smiles,
