Mixed Bunch for SCS Creative Crew Challenge!
Below is one of my SCS Creative Crew Challenge projects for February. For this SCS challenge I needed to use Twitterpated Designer Series Paper and/or any combination of the colors in it: Pear Pizzazz, Basic Gray, Island Indigo, Riding Hood Red, Blushing Bride, Baja Breeze, and Whisper White. I created two different cards for this challenge. I love all the colors in the Twitterpated DSP. This was an easy challenge for me as I received a Christmas card with a fold I had never seen before and loved it (larger than our standard card) and had decided to use it for one of SCS Creative Crew Challenges. I made the card so the finished size is 5 1/2" x 4 1/4". If you'd like to participate in this month's challenge go over to SCS and search the gallery using CCREW2012DF, SUO upload your card to the February 2012 Challenge Gallery!

Another Creative Crew Challenge – Holiday Focus!
Think Valentine's Day All challenges this month focus on things "new" to us. It may not be new, but if we've never done it, it's new to us! My third Creative Crew Challenge – CCREW112HF focuses on the holiday -Valentine's Day. I needed to make a card or decor item using hearts in a new way to me – something I've never done with hearts. Hmmm… first I was stumped and then I remembered a 2011 Leadership swap card that I received from Linda Heller. I loved it and wanted to try this unique fold sometime, so no time like the present. I figured out how Linda made her card and and then went to work on this challenge. This card is like getting 3 cards in 1 — each side is different!
