Lovey Dovey Challenge

Hello and Welcome to Our Creative Corner. We have a special challenge this week. Today is Julee's 11th anniversary, she has challenged us to make either a love of a lifetime/anniversary card/project or just something for that special someone who makes you go all lovey dovey.

Wanna play along and have a chance to win some new stamps? Just upload your creation to your blog or gallery and leave us a link here in this post so we can see what you made! To be included in a random drawing for a $30 Verve Stamps Gift Certificate, please have your project linked here by 12 noon on Friday, December 26. If you upload to Splitcoast, please include OCCC in the keywords. The winner will be announced next Saturday, December 27th.

This week it's our pleasure to have the very talented Jackie Pedro as our special guest designer. Isn't her card adorable?



And now for the lovey dovey samples from the Creative Corner Designers:

Happy Anniversary!

I don't know if this counts or not but Thursday night I squeezed in some time for stamping and I made a 'lovey dovey' card.

Here it is:

Well a very happy anniversary to you!

This was certainly fun! I found this old (I mean old) postcard and thought the image was perfect for this. So, here it is....

I almost forgot to post on here that I completed this card. I really liked doing this one. I really got into using the red embossing. Not sure the picture does it justice. Still trying to figure out how to take the pictures.

Heres my link.... B Crafty blog

Hopefully you can see the background, embossing around the edges also.

Ikki said...

Great cards from the DT. And, congratulations to Julee. This gave me the opportunity to use a stamp that I bought an age ago, so thank you for the inspiration.
Also, many thanks for all your hard work and beautiful creations to encourage crafting.
Merry Christmas to all,
ikki

I love all the samples. Here's one that I made recently, so I hope it counts. Happy anniversary, Julee! And Merry Christmas to all of you.

Promise me you won't look at the close up of my card. It's a little messy and totally unnoticable unless you look closely :)

I guess I'm really late on getting in on this one, but I just finished a card today and was reading your blog and realized that it fit this challenge so I wanted to share it. You can see it here http://thefunkiejunkie.blogspot.com/2009/01/now-on-to-valentines-day.html.

I love your challenges and hope to participate more regularly. Keep up the great work. You are all such an inspiration to me!
