I'll take that challenge!

Good Sunday afternoon! :) I was blog-hopping today, and came across a new site - http://stampchallenges.blogspot.com/. It's relatively new, but they've got a great design team, AND a new challenge every week. What's not to like??? :D


SO, this week's challenge was a thank-you "something". It just so happens that one of the cards I wanted to show you from a class this week was a thank-you card, done with the ever-popular pinwheel design - so I'm killing those proverbial two birds with this one design. :D
These pinwheels are created with a 1-3/8" piece of designer series paper (DSP) punched with that size square punch. The leaves and stems are from TIME WELL SPENT, a Level 3 hostess set (There's still time to host YOUR party and earn one!!!), and the greeting is from SINCERE SALUTATIONS. The brads I used on this one were retired vintage brads. The colors of card stock and ink are Certainly Celery and Almost Amathyst.
It's really a simple card, with the WOW factor of the pinwheels added. :)
I hope you're having a WONDERFUL weekend, and are taking time for yourself - and to do a little stampin'. :D Don't be a stranger - and leave a comment for me!
Birthday Blog Challenge will be happening on June 1!!! Are YOU ready to play???
