OCC Challenge - Triple Play

Welcome OCC Friends! We would like to thank all those that played along in last week's sketch challenge, your pet cards were so fun - it was like a pet parade hopping around to see everyone's great creations!! Before we start with the challenge, we would like to announce the winner for Dog Gone Stamps $25 Gift Certificate. Congratulations to Fonda from Southern Scraps. Please email us your information so we can get the Gift Certificate to you.

This week our July hostess, Jenny Gropp, has challenged the OCC to a TRIPLE PLAY Challenge... Less is not always more! You must pick at least three types of embellishments to use on your card or project. These are your choices: Brads, Eyelets, Bling, Ribbon, Buttons, Thread/Floss, Beads, Charms, Rub Ons, Liquid Applique, Crystal Lacquer. 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 we have Jerri Jimenez (aka Jerri Kay on Splitcoast) with us, sharing her wonderful creation above as the guest designer for this week. If you are not familar with Jerri's inspiring art and designs you must head to her beautiful blog A Touch of Grace. Her creations are so detailed and amazing, they are pure eye candy! Jerri is also sponsoring this week's prize with a $25 Gift Certificate to her very NEW on line store A Touch of Grace -Paper Boutique. Thank you Jerri for sharing your fabulous work with us and sponsoring the OCC Challenge this week!

I may have more than 3 embellies, this card is pretty loaded for me, but it was fun and I think it turned out kind of pretty.
