Challenge #781 - White Lightning

It's our first November challenge and we're starting things off with lightning - White Lightning, that is. In keeping with my Def Leppard-inspired challenges this year, I thought White Lightning would work for anything weather related.

I made a Christmas card with a snow-embossed background. You can chose any sort of weather to include on your creation.

If you need some more inspiration, please check out the Girlfriends' projects below. They're all marked with DT. Once you've got your project done, we'd love for you to link it up below!

Little Red Wagon Challenge #780 - Sweet Treats

Welcome to a new Little Red Wagon Challenge. Depending on where in the world you live, today or tomorrow, is Halloween. Since not everyone participates in Halloween, I tried to pick a topic that could be Halloween or otherwise; Sweet Treats. For this challenge I would love to see you include sweets on your project. Any kind of sweets will do for example, candy, cupcakes, brownies, and remember, any type of paper craft will be embraced. It doesn't have to be a card.

Here is what I've made -

I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of goodies you share with us this week. Be sure to stop by and check out the sweets from the Girlfriends, I'm sure they will be delicious!

Challenge # 779 - Emboss It!

Happy Wednesday, all! This week the challenge is all about embossing! You can use heat embossing, an embossing folder, use a scoring tool to create embossed-look lines - we'll even accept foiling and letterpress techniques for this challenge.

And remember, we're not just about cards! We'd love to see your scrapbook layout, tag, altered item, bookmark, pocket page, journal...any papercraft goes!

This is what I did.....

I went with a snowflake embossing folder on the patterned paper and a swirly embossing folder on the butterflies. Also the sentiment is foiled. (I know it's hard to see here. I've got a closeup on my personal blog.)

If you would like more inspiration, be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made. Then, head back here and link up your project.

Can't wait to see what you create!

The Story

One day a group of girlfriends got together to play with their papers, stamps, markers, ribbons, buttons and the rest of their seemingly endless supply of other 'have-to-have' scrapbooking and card making goodies. It was so much fun to talk, share, laugh and create with each other that they decided to create a blog that would motivate, inspire and challenge them on a weekly basis to use some of the supplies they have acquired. They also thought it would be fun to have all the other girlfriends out there join in and share their creations based on the weekly challenges. So, grab your wagon full of goodies (we know you have one!), get creative and have fun!
