Now, for a hearty "Thank you" to those of you who LIKED my photo page on facebook.  As you know, I recently received my diploma in professional photography and am hoping to get my name out there.  If you follow facebook, please feel free to visit my page:https://www.facebook.com/C.A.RobinsonTakesPhotos?ref_type=bookmark  and LIKE it if you do.

Challenge #175

Well, what do you know?  I didn't mess up this week.  This post is on time.
Let's start with the top 3 from challenge #173.  Here they are (in random order):



Wow, that was hard - picking three from all the cool cards this week.  Everyone did such a great job - there is a lot of talent out there!  Congratulations to the top three and thank you to the remainder for participating in our challenge.

And now - on to challenge #175...........
The sketch:

And the cards from the team:




These are beautiful cards from the design team and I am sure they will get YOUR creative juice flowing.  I cannot wait to see what everyone makes this week.  Post your cards below.

Now, on a personal note, I have a favour to ask.  Many of you know that I have recently graduated from a professional photography course and want to now make it my "retirement career".  If you have Facebook, I would really appreciate it if you would visit my page: https://www.facebook.com/C.A.RobinsonTakesPhotos?ref_type=bookmark
and "Like" it if you will.  Thanks so much but starting a new business is a s-l-o-w process and I need all the help I can get.
See you later!

Challenge #174 - Oops, I Forgot

I am so sorry!  I do not know how I did it but I totally forgot yesterday was Tuesday.  It was Canada Day and we had a lovely day, but when I woke up this morning it hit me that it is Wednesday.  So please accept my apologies and join me for the Wednesday edition of Try Stampin' On Tuesday.

Here are our top 3 from  week #172 - in no particular order:



Beautiful cards, ladies!  Thanks to all who participated.

Now for this week's sketch:
Remember, our theme all summer is Whatever Makes You Happy.
And here are the inspirations from our designers:







Wow!  Amazing examples, team!  You ladies really rock and YOU are definitely who make me happy.  I could not do this without you.
So, now let's see what our followers come up with.  I am sure the cards will be awesome.
And, once again, I am so sorry for screwing up.
