Hello, It’s Cathy here to host the It’s In The Cards Challenge for 09/22/2011. I’ve got a fairly simple card template that you can dress up to your liking! I took this template and created a gatefold card as my sample. Here’s a preview of the template and sample:

Download the template here or on the linked image above.

And here’s a close up look at my sample:

My sample card was made using Chocolate Frosted Snowflakes by Stolen Moments.  Here are some great samples made up by our awesome creative team.

Tracy made this adorable daisy card using Denim and Daisies - Papers and Elements by Jenn Labre.

Sarah used My Magical Place Add-On Kit and My Magical Place: Add On Alpha by Haynay Designs to make this magical birthday card.  The Mickey silhouettes were a participation prize that she got at another site.

Tamara used  Funky Lane by Sugary Fancy and the all over bracket punch by Martha Stewart to create her cute card.

OK here’s a review of the challenge rules:

Hey there! Cathy here to host the April 28, 2011 It’s In the Cards Challenge. With the warmer weather approaching (at least in my part of the world it is supposed to be getting warmer!), and our thoughts heading towards summer and swimsuits, I was thinking about getting fit. And that inspired me to create a card template that is long and slender! Hehehehe!!!

The image is linked for the template download, or you can click HERE.

Here is the sample card I made using the new design team collaboration kit “Up, Up and Away”

Now to help get you motivated, here are some samples from our amazing creative team!

Tracy (sunshintk) made this bright colorful birthday card using Celebrate! (bold) by Chelle’s Creations

Ami (steami) used Cover It Up: Invitation – Krisi’s Kreations and Month By Month: Pregnancy – WM Squared to make this wonderful card to welcome a new baby! Check out the quilling she did too!

Tamara is really getting us ready for summer with her card featuring Beach Bum By WM Squared Designs

Heather used Seize the Day by LDrag and KimB to create this great all occasion card. I really like the way she photographed it, really shows off the tall and slender look. I think I’ve got a new angle for when I’m being photographed! LOL

This one by Bonnie is so striking with the bright poppy on the black background!  She used The Poppies Collection by Jeanine DeOre.

And this one by Jewelle Using:
Oh Boy! by geniaBeana Scraps and Nikki Epperson Designs
BIG! Chip Alpha by geniaBeana Scraps
