Happy 2010 everyone! LuAnn here with the first card challenge of the new year! A new year of card challenges with some small changes.

As you can see from the subject line, we’ve gone back to the original name of the ScrapMatters’ card challenge – “It’s in the Cards!” And we’re switching the challenge to every other Thursday. But other than that, the challenge will remain the same – hosted by your favorite hybrid goddesses!

Before I show you the template, let’s review the rules of the challenge:

*Remember that to earn your Matter of Scrap point for the month you need to photograph and upload your card to the Hybrid Challenge gallery by the end of the month. Then post it in the It’s in the Cards challenge 1/14/10 thread as well.  Make sure to let your hostess know if you use a new product within a week of it’s release – if you do, you get an extra point!*

Here’s our template – the template was inspired by a card created by stamper Donna Baker:

Hi everyone! I’m here to bring you a new template for the Hybrid Tuesday Template. I love making cards – they make the receiver feel so much more special! And it was for this very challenge, last year, that I made my first attempts at hybrid creations. So, if you’ve never done hybrid before, don’t be scared! You can make your project as simple (just print out the digitally designed card) or as “complicated” (cut out things, add ribbon, buttons, etc.!) as you wish, and there’s no right or wrong in hybrid! Just give it a try: you might find out you love it!

OK.. enough rambling!  Here’s your template:

And here’s my example, using the new Everyday kit by Sahlin Studio:

Here are some more cards from our hybrid CT ladies! Sylvia created this gorgeous card also using the new Everyday by Sahlin Studio:

LuAnn (wildblueeyez) was inspired by the shape I used to create the elements in the template and came up with this amazingly creative card, using Let’s Polka and Word-a-licious by Andilynn Designs:

Let me remind you the rules of this challenge. You have until the end of the month to partecipate. In order to earn one point for the Matter of Scrap challenges, you need to create a card using the template provided and post a photograph of the card in the hybrid challenges gallery; then go to this post in the forum and add your image and the link to the gallery. You can earn a second point if you use a product that was released in the 7 days prior to your posting (remember to mention you used a new product when you post in the thread in the forum). Finally, at the end of the month I will choose my favorite entry, that will earn a bonus point.

I hope you enjoy the template, and can’t wait to see the cards you create!

Hi everyone! I’m here with another Tuesday Template challenge for you! I hope you enjoy this template as much as I enjoyed creating it for you. There are no rules for this one – just pick some photos you love and have fun with the template. I set it up for four photos, but feel free to combine the photo spots and make it a three-photo, 2-photo, or even a one-photo layout! And have fun decorating that big ‘ole bracket on there! Clip a paper to it, stroke it, use a fun style on it – go nuts!

So here’s the template:

VISIT the ScrapMatters forum to download your template

Here is my layout that I made with the template. I used These Moments by Juno Designs and Doodlie-Do Page Borders by Britt-ish Designs. (Image is linked to the gallery).

And here’s what the wonderful CT ladies have done with it:

Liz (mommy22girls) made this bright and fun layout using Tater’s Happy Go Lucky and Juno’s Dessert

Natasha (bcnatty) made the template her own and whipped up this great layout using designs from Sahlin Studios

Jenn (jennamy82) also tweaked the template a bit and came up with this stunner! She used Enchantment and Black Bead Alpha by Britt-ish Designs

And one of my own Scrap Star CT members, Erica (stanworth) did this adorable layout using Stolen Moments ‘Helping Hands’

A quick reminder of the rules:
- You will receive one point for completing this challenge and posting your layout in both the gallery AND the forum thread. You will receive 1 extra point if you use a new release product within the week it was released. You must make note of this in your post in the forum to get the point.
- You have until the end of DECEMBER to complete the challenge.
- No double-dipping, your layout must be unique to this challenge only.
- FYI: you don’t have to use ScrapMatters products to complete this challenge- we just like it when you do!
