I am so happy because my pal, Laurel Seabrook is coming on board as a designer! I love Laurel's work and she lives an hour away from me! It is so great she agreed to join us!!! I asked Laurel to share a bit about herself!
Hi everyone, I am Laurel Seabrook and am so happy to be here on The Challenge Team. I took a bit of a hiatus from crafting, only doing a few projects here and there and am looking forward to jumping back in! I love to create anything with paper but tend to do mostly cards and I look at them as little pieces of art, so that the receiver can tuck them in somewhere on display should they choose. My favourite cards to create are inspiration/just because ones so I am sure you will be seeing many of those!
Welcome, Laurel!!
For my card, I decided to keep things SIMPLE! That is my new card making motto this year! I used a new set from WPLUS9 called Watercolored Anemones Stamp Set and the Grateful Greetings Stamp Set. I used a sponge to apply the ink to the floral image and "huffed" it...
The design team have created some inspiration to get you in the crafting mood! Come and join us! Our weekly winner will be our next Guest Designer! So come and join the fun!
