Dreamweaver's February Challenge

Whew!  We're back from CHA and did we have a blast!  It was three days (for me; I didn't stay for the final day of the show) filed with demonstrations, make and takes, and seeing lots of friends.  It was also a good time for the design team, minus Terrece, whom we dearly missed, to spend time together and share a lot of laughs.

But now we're home and it's time to get on with the February challenge, which is to create something using  a St. Patrick's Day theme or the color green or both.   You'll have the entire month to submit your project on Dreamweaver's Dream it Up! blog.  Here's what I've done:

I embossed the Pinwheel Checkerboard (LX7013) and the Shamrock (LS58) stencils on to two shades of the Tim Holtz Kraft-Core Nostalgic Collection paper from Core'dinations using a die cut machine.  Lightly sand both pieces and trim to size.  The shamrocks were edged in gold with a Krylon Gold Leaf pen.

Be sure to visit design team blogs listed below for more ideas and inspiration.  When you've finished your project, but sure to link it to the Dream it Up! blog using Mr. Linky.  We can't wait to see what you've done.  Here you go:
 
See you next week,
Liz

  2. I love this card Liz. I so enjoyed all the time we spent together during CHA and I really hope we can get some of those Ideas going that we were talking about. I got home at 3:30 and then had to get up at 6:00 it was an interesting day.
