Papercraft Star Challenge

Hello ...

Today is the start of another challenge at Papercraft Star ... where the winner can choose two pages of digital downloads from The House Across The Bay and the runner up also gets to choose one page ... Each week one of our DT uses an image from THATB ... hop over to the blog to find out who our featured designer is this week ...

This weeks challenge is Checks ... Include either Gingham or Checks in your project ... here's the inspirational photo for you


Isn't that cosy?
Here's my take on the challenge


I didn't really have a plan when I made this ... but then I rarely do ... I just play about with things


The image I've had for a number of years ... stored in the digital files on my computer ... It's a watercolour by Gail Flores and I kinda liked it with the gingham


I bet you all have some gingham or checks lurking in your supplies so why not pull them out and join us this week?
If you're looking for more inspiration ... "check" out the rest of the projects from our DT.

Thanks so much for stopping by ... look forward to seeing your creations
Have a beautiful day!

You certainly combined some wonderful checks here Ros; I'm always in awe at your bows, how do you get them to be so perfect! The watercolour is lovely, as is the little house, there's a great country feel to your card!

Heavens to Betsy, I never have a plan when I start out ! Which is why I spend hours on every card I make, lol. Somehow these watercolor flowers and gingham just go together don't they. A very nostalgic feeling I think !! Great job Ros !! ♥J♥
