Awsome cards! I will sit out this week I have no basic grey paper (at least I don't think I do) I love what everyone has made. I would go buy some BG paper (this is a good excuse) but I vow not to buy no more paper (I will stick to it, yes I will lol).
Great challenge! Here's mine:

Okay, I was forced to go make a purchase. (Really, I was looking for a reason!) Then I made a card. My card is rather simple. I don't think it matters too much as the paper is just beautiful!
Here is my card http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/969177?cat=3260
