August Challenge Cards

Happy Saturday!

Here are the challenge cards for August :)

First, the challenge:

Unfortunately, when Regina created this sketch design and challenge, we didn't know Stampin' Up! would be retiring the wheels.  But, since we've been at this for a long time, we all have a bunch of them to use :)  So, I'm glad we had a challenge using them.

First up is Michelle's card.  Isn't this cute?  I love the clean lines of this card.  It would be a really cute card for grade school teacher, no?  It's just beautiful!


Next is my card.  I really love the tea stamp sets and for some reason, I felt I needed to use this stamp!  So, I started digging through my wheels and thought this one would be a good match for the stamped image.  I decided to use Pear Pizzazz in addition to the other colors since the images would be lost if I stamped them in Sahara Sand.  They wouldn't look right if I stamped them in Early Espresso.  So, that's why there is an extra color added :)


We have another card to show you!  Debbie did this beautiful card using all stamps.  She made the "wheeled" piece with a stamp - looks great!  I love the sweet bird image - makes me think of birds waking up with the sun :)  To read more about this card, please visit Debbie's awesome blog here.


Unfortunately, Regina was not able to join us this month.  But, I'm sure she'll be back with us next month!  I'm looking forward to another challenge :)  Please join us!

Have a wonderful day and weekend!  Thanks for looking :)
