The challenge this week was to use wood on your cards – and I love what you came up with! From buttons and twigs to popsicle sticks and bamboo skewers – there’s some real creativity out there and I’m so excited to show it off in this gallery!

Aren’t these cards simply fabulous? Each one is so unique and individual – I love everyone’s different style!
The challenge for this week: cards with washi tape! We may have had this as a challenge before, but there are so many new kinds of washi tape made specifically for scrapbooking now – it’ll be fun to see what you come up with! Please email me a picture of your cards with washi tape and a link to your blog (or, preferably, a link to your blog post showcasing your CARDS challenge card) to paiget@northridgepublishing.com by next Thursday, November 17th 2011. Until then, have a wonderful weekend!
