This week's challenge is a shapely one.

Tomorrow, November 29, is National Square Dancing Day.  To help celebrate this day, think ‘square’.  Make a square card (sorry, Barb) OR use square elements on your non-square card.

As this is the last challenge of November, we would like to thank our guest designer, Karen Dunbrook, for sharing her fabulous talents with us this month.

 If you would like to play along with us this week, upload your card/project to your blog or online gallery using the keyword C4C314. Then pop back here and link it on Inlinkz so we can see it too! :)

Crazy 4 Challenges C4C311

November has arrived and that means there is a new hostess for the Crazy4Challenges......and that would be me, Joanne/Jojot!!!  I am so very excited to announce that our Guest Designer for November will be the fabulous Karen Dunbrook.  Her talents are often on display at Splitcoast, and her specialty is CAS, vibrant colors, and incredibly innovative background effects.

Here is the challenge........ Let’s add to our Thanksgiving/Fall card stash by creating cards of thanks using the traditional colors of the season.  For those of you ‘down under’ you may certainly make Spring creations expressing thanks.

Well, the time has finally come for us to say goodbye.....to the month of October that is! I have had a great time being your hostess this month, and I want to send a special thank you to our guest designer Tangii, she did an amazing job!!

For our 5th, and final challenge this month, we are going to start celebrating the jolliest of holidays a bit early. Yep, against my better judgement, it is time to get a jump on my holiday cards, so my challenge for this week is to make a card, or project, using a Christmas theme!

If you would like to play along with us this week, upload your card/project to your blog or online gallery using the keyword C4C310. Then pop back here and link it on Inlinkz so we can see it too! :)
