Did you see the news at Susan's blog (Simplicity) this morning? I'm now a part of the OLW team, along with another new member, Karen Dunbrook! I'm so excited - my first challenge will be on August 29. But in the meantime, I'll be playing along with the other hostesses' challenge, as usual. You know OLW is one of my favourite challenges and I'm so happy to be part of the team!
I've done a lot of challenges this week, and there's more to come. Even though it's a lot of fun, sometimes that leaves me feeling a little, well, over-challenged. When I feel like that, you know that I like to turn to Pinterest for inspiration and stamp something just for fun.
Obviously, Susan also understands that, because today, our challenge isn't a challenge at all (at least for me!) - we have to look at her Pinterest board (Pure Inspiration) and make a card from one of the images there. I chose this one:
I used a Papertrey stamp and The Stamps of Life sentiment, with Lucky Limeade, River Rock, Early Espresso, Not Quite Navy and Baja Breeze inks.
Congrats to you! Love OLW even though my participation is sporadic. Love your card.
