Hi! Cheryl here, with challenge number 249.  With our new improved challenge cycle this week is trend week!  As you can see in the graphic below, the trend we want to see from you is WOODGRAIN!  There are so many great stamps, embossing folders and papers out there with beautiful wood!

Since this is week one of the month we will start with word week.  Word week will be just that a single word for your inspiration!  This week I picked "BIRD".  Take that and run with it in any way that inspires you!

Be sure to swing on by and check out what the Design Team came up with this week:

Chic of the Week #247

Thanks to everone who played along with my inspiration photo.  Loved seeing everyone's cards.

This week's Chic of the Week is Kristie with this wonderful card.

Loved how her chevron pattern mimicked the wall design and she picked up the three key colours fabulously.

Kristie, please e-mail me at mritzen(at)shaw(dot)ca so I can send you your Chic of the Week badge.

Oh, and make sure you come back tomorrow as we have a little surprise for you!
