City Crafter Challenge 229

Hello ...
The time is flying by and here we are mid September and into week 229 of City Crafter challenges

This week I am so pleased to say that we have a new DT member joining us - The lovely Stella (A little bit of the things I enjoy blogspot) and I couldn't be happier!

Our challenge this week has been set by Kirsty ... She's chosen 
Diagonals


I'm sure if you have looked around Blogland lately there is a big trend in using Diagonals in papercrafting ...

I had a million ideas for this challenge, in the end here's what I came up with


I've used diagonal scoring as well as cutting my CS to accommodate the word 'happy' diagonally


Happy what you may ask ... Well, as I didn't make this for any special event I decided to leave it as just "happy" on the outside and then I can put inside the card something like birthday, or anniversary, or everything! Depending on the occasion


Our Guest Designer this week is Carol (Just me:c blogspot) Our winner from week 210 ... Please hop over to visit Carol and see her fabulous creations and read her uplifting posts ... she makes me smile

We also have a prize this week sponsored by our brilliant host and creator of CCCB ... Kirsty


Fabulous chipboard letters just waiting for a coat of paint or crackle

Our team have some more inspiration for you so hop on over to CCCB and check it out and link up your amazing diagonal creations with us this week ...

Have a fun and happy day

~ Ros ~
