Quilt-Inspired CARDS Challenge Gallery and New Challenge!

March 1st, 2012 Paige

Another Thursday brings another challenge gallery! This week you were asked to create cards inspired by quilts – one of my favorite looks right now! I hope you love these cards as much as I do, I want to re-create them all!

More wonderful quilt patterns can be found by simply googling “quilts” and, of course, Pinterest is a great go-to!

The challenge for next week: Cards with confetti! Punch your own confetti and tuck it in a pocket or sew it behind a transparency, use it like glitter on a sticky surface, incorporate pre-made confetti, and more! Let’s see what you can do with confetti – an up-and-coming trend in scrapbooking and now card making! Please email me a picture of your card with confetti and a link to your blog post featuring your card to paiget@northridgepublishing.com by next Thursday, March 8th 2012, for a chance to have your card shown here!

Paige Evans

I've been scrapbooking since I was 16 years old and love the hobby more each day! I enjoy making things by hand - from cards and layouts to books and baskets. My day is not complete unless I've made something. I'm the Copy Editor for the Northridge magazines and love all the inspiration I get from seeing everyone's creations. On a more personal note - we had our first baby - a boy named Fox - in October of 2010 and we love him to pieces! Paige's blog: chrisandpaige.blogspot.com
