Challenge #846 - Just the Way You Are

Kate here welcoming you to another Billy Joel inspired challenge. This time's song is "Just the Way You Are" and I'm looking for projects of any kind that celebrate somebody (even yourself!). Think birthday, love you or celebration cards and projects.

I made a birthday card to celebrate a special day. What will you make?

Itʻs new challenge time over at Little Red Wagon, and Iʻm the hostess this week. I came up with "Iʻm Seeing Red". Translated, it means Iʻm looking for red on your projects. Even if you donʻt do Valentineʻs Day, you can still join the fun. And remember, we're not just about cards!

Hereʻs what I came up with. Lots and lots of red here -

Remember, we not only like cards, we would also love to see your bookmarks, tags, altered items scrapbook layouts, - whatever your favorite paper craft is! Be sure to check out how the Girlfriends are seeing red this week.

This is what I made...

Book pages....frames...and Brides..

They are fun to make and will definitely come in handy soon..

So there you go, link up below and have fun with your neutral colours..

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!
