Ok now that's I've wiped my eyes and can see the screen once again..it's challenge time!!!! This week our challenge is MOTHER'S DAY AND/OR FLOWERS!!!!! Just remember that it doesn't have to contain both themes, just one of them! But of course if you're up to a real challenge we'd love to see you use both!!
I know that our lovely friends and family has already celebrated Mother's Day across the big pond, so we would like to see anything MOTHER'S DAY AND/OR FLOWERS!! You can accomplish this with stamps, embellishments, thread, anything!! We want all crafters to feel welcome, so if your crafting medium fits our challenge, then we welcome you to join! Whether it be sewing, scrapbooking, altering, cardmaking, candle making, whatever!! We hope you'll be joining us!!
I'll be back on Tuesday, May 3rd, with your Challenge #6 winner, TOP 3, and our TOP 3 winner for the month of APRIL! Good luck everyone!!

A little about me: I have been married for 27 yrs. 3 children--Travis 24-EMT, Taylor 17-Football player and wrestler, Holly 14-volleyball, dancer, golf. I volunteer at our elementary school and help a friend clean houses. My sister Darsie is the one who got me started in cardmaking 2 years ago. I just love creating and being on the same design teams as my sister. She is the greatest inspiration!!
Absolutely adorable Robin!!!! We can't forget all the brand new mom's on Mother's Day, so don't pass over all those baby images, and Meljen's definitely has some adorable ones to work with!!!
Hello my name is Regina Easter. I have 4 wonderful children and an awesome supportive husband. I have for as long as I can remember loved all the aspects of creating things with paper and drawing. So it was only fitting that I decided to open up The Cutting Cafe' and I am loving every bit of this new venture. The Cutting Cafe' offers affordable Printable Stamps and Cutting Files. The Cutting Files which are basically just like templates are files that you Print out using your home printer, Cut, Assemble and then Embellish.....Very Easy.....The Cutting Files also come in the format where you can cut out the files using some of the latest Machine Cutters like the Pazzles Inspiration, Bosskut Gazelle and Cricut (with Scal software). The Printable Stamps are just that, images that are sent to you through email that you print out using your home printer. After the images are printed out, you can just color them in like you would any other stamped imaged...One great thing about the Printable Stamps and Cutting Files is that you no longer have to worry about finding space to store all of your stamps....You can keep them all in a folder in your computer and use over and over again.
