Hi everyone,

It's Saturday which means it is challenge time with the Crazies!!!!! This week I (Frances) am back with another fun challenge.

Before we get onto the challenges I am pleased to announce the winner from last month's sketch challenge which was sponsored by Alota Rubber Stamps. The winner is Robin McK Congratulations Robin, please email Frances to find out how to collect your prize.

Now onto this week's challenge. Lattice .... this week we are going to include lattice in some form on our cards. Here are a few ideas to get you started ... lattice using your circuit machine, dies, embossed lattice using scor-pal; Lattice Punches; Designer paper that has lattice pattern, lattice background stamps or image stamps that include lattice on them; etc.

If you would like to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword C4C52. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see it too.

Happy Saturday everyone!

Of course Saturdays mean it is time for another challenge over here on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog. This week it is my (Frances) turn again to host the challenge.

When I first started thinking about what to do for the challenges in August, I decided to check out what special days were in August. in researching this online I discovered that the 2nd week of August was Elvis week which coincides with the anniversary of his death on 16th August 1977.

So my challenge for this week is that you need to include music somehow on your card. It could be a music related stamp, designer paper, embossing folders, punches etc..... whatever you wish. Of course if you have Elvis stamps you get double points hehe!

If you would like to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword C4C50. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see it too.

Let's see what the "crazies" created for you this week
