Chic of the Week #499

Hello,

Oh my goodness...you really turned up the heat in the gallery with a plethora of fabulous summer-themed cards!

THANK YOU so much for embracing this challenge with such enthusiasm!

Selecting a winner was incredibly challenging, given the fabulous showcases. After much consideration, the winner is: Christine Dring! Talk about a dapper surfin' dude and the scene she's created for him - a swanky board and shorts, ocean, sand, puffy clouds and, of course, a cool beverage - is absolutely summer sensational! Awed by her colouring!

Congratulations 

Please email me - Carol - at

You are now in the running to be our Guest in October.

Please join us tomorrow for a special celebration - our 500th challenge! - with lovely Vicki as our hostess! Prize are involved!!

Chic of the Week #498

Hi friends!  I thoroughly enjoyed looking at all your elephant or safari inspired cards this week based on the photo I chose.  I had a difficult time choosing just one this week!

 

In the end I chose this card by...

...Lisa Elton!

 

First of all, it's so cute, right?  But I also loved how she really used everything from the inspiration photo.  The elephant, the colors, and the outdoors! 

 

Congratulations Lisa!
