OCC - Crazy for Hearts

Hello and welcome to Our Creative Corner!! Before we start with this week's challenge, Denise (peanutbee) has a little message for all of you... I wanted to let you know that starting in February I'll be leaving the OCC. I've really enjoyed the last eight months with these talented girls and the fun challenges everyone has come up with. At this time though, I just feel that I need to focus on my design team commitments and play along with the OCC as a challenge participant when I can rather than as a blog team member. ~ Hugs to everyone, Denise

We are all sad to see Denise go but we know that she won't be far away! If you would like to leave her a message, I am sure she would love to hear from all of you!

We would also like to announce the random winner of last week's Sketch Challenge Giveaway. Congratulations Denise from The Crafty Den, you have won the custom banner & watermark!! Please email Jennifer Meyer at jdmeyer6@sbcglobal.net. We want to thank you all, we really enjoyed seeing all of your beautiful & inspiring cards!!

Now for this week's challenge... Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Jennifer has challenged us to create a card using two hearts or more. When you're ready to play along just upload your card/project to your blog or gallery, then leave us a link here, so we can check it out. If you upload to SCS, use keyword: OCCC

    I don't think I've ever been first! This one came to me so easily this morning.

    It's been fun playing along with you as a DT member, Denise. We'll miss you creativity on the DT but look forward to you plaing along with us!

    I LOVE hearts, too! Started collecting heart things when I was in high school & college. Don't do much collecting now, but I've gone crazy for all the terrific heart stamps available. Thanks for the challenge....I couldn't stop at two only. Had to make it four!

    What a fun challenge. I have several favorite embellies, and I chose to use rhinestones. They add so much sparkle to a card. I added my card to the link. Great example cards too...
