Challenge #281

Happy Tuesday to everyone! Hope your week has started off well. You may have noticed some changes to our blog design.  It was time to freshen things up a bit, and our new design fits nicely with our design team badge  designed by Crystal.  Here it is:
You will find this badge on each of our designers' websites.  Isn't it just the coolest design?  Thanks so much, Crystal!

Wow!  Awesome cards and great inspiration, team!

 I have a surprise for everyone....this week we have a guest designer as well -  Donna Kempf Sholz, a regular contributor to our Facebook page.  Here is Donna's card:
Very cool and nautical!
And here is what she has to tell us about herself:
Donna Scholz (pronounced ‘schōltz’) retired 18 months ago and moved back to Boise, ID after working as a cyber security program manager. She has been making cards to celebrate life’s milestones for more than 20 years. She also scrapbooks to relive the wonderful moments on cruises she and her husband have taken around the world. She has a 4 year old granddaughter in the Bay Area, and a 16 month old granddaughter who lives just two miles away..

Thanks, Donna for joining us this week. Be sure to stop by Facebook and leave her some great comments, everyone.

Remember, this challenge runs for two weeks and you can enter below (using the linky) or by posting your card on our Facebook page.

Have a great week and happy creating!!!!!!
