It's a FREE FOR ALL . . .

Hi everyone, Micki here.
Can you believe the month of April is almost over and believe it or not, but here in the Midwest (Kansas-Missouri) we had a forecast of snow.  Temperatures have been all over the board and that seems to drain the energy as well as creative mojo right out of me. One of the reasons that I've been absent for the last couple of challenges.
The best crafting motivator for me (besides being the hostess) is to just get in my craft room and just get inky with no thought about theme, color, embellishments or do's and don'ts and that is this is the PERFECT challenge because it's a

FREE for ALL. 

So grab your supplies and get into the crafting groove with us!

Make 'em Green with Envy

Hello everyone! Tanis here with our latest challenge...a green project or card. As in mostly green papers :)
Guess why? Well, I like to think it's because it's my favorite color, but there's also a little day on Sunday that happens to feature everything green - including beer...St. Patrick's Day!

Have you got a St. Patrick's Day card or project to share? Or a lovely creation for any other occasion that features this most glorious of colors? Let's see them!

The Sisters have really put in some great effort to come up with some green gorgeousness...take a look:
