Lovely lovely cards one and all. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, thanks SO much for playing along! For this week’s challenge: Make a card with a base that’s any other shape besides square or rectangle. So you can make circle cards, bracket shaped cards, star or heart shaped cards, etc. Any theme, any colors, as long as it’s not square or rectangle! I can’t wait to see what you come up with – I’m loving all of the organically shaped cards these days. Please email your submissions to me (I prefer pictures over blog links please) at paiget@scrapbooktrendsmag.com by next Friday February 26th and I’ll post another challenge gallery and new challenge in the afternoon. Until then, take care and have a great week!

-Paige

I've been scrapbooking since I was 16 years old and love the hobby more each day! I enjoy making things by hand - from cards and layouts to books and baskets. My day is not complete unless I've made something. I'm the Copy Editor for the Northridge magazines and love all the inspiration I get from seeing everyone's creations. On a more personal note, we're expecting our first baby, a boy, in October and we couldn't be more thrilled!
