OCC Challenge - Red, White & Blue

Hello OCC Friends! We would like to thank all those that played along in last week's sketch challenge, your samples were so fantastic!! Before we start with the challenge, we would like to announce the winner for the Stamp and Smiles Giveaway. Congratulations to Wendy Aungst, from WeeBeeStampin . Please email us your address so we can get your goodies out to you.

This week our July hostess, Jenny Gropp, has challenged the OCC to create a card/project using “Red, White and Blue" as your color combo. It does not have to be Patriotic Themed, you can can use any shades of those colors that inspire you. There is no time limit on our challenges - feel free to participate whenever you are able. To play along, upload your creation to your blog or gallery, then leave us a comment linking to your project so we can check it out. If you upload to SCS, remember to use keyword: OCCC.

This week as a treat for playing in the Challenge we have one of the very swanky and Newly Released sets from The Cat's Pajamas - "Happy Camper" that will be awarded to someone that joins in this week's challenge. A very big Thank you to Alma at The Cat's Pajamas for hosting this week's prize and for creating some seriously swanky stamps for our stamping pleasure!

We also have a Guest Designer with us for this week, Sandy Hulsart, who maintains TWO blogs! One for her delightful card creations that she colors expertly with Copics: Creative Moments with Sandy and the other blog is dedicated to her amazing talent creating Stampscapes Scenes ...Scenes by Sandy. Thank you Sandy for playing along with us this week!
