It's time for a new color challenge and we are groovin' with the 60's!  Here's what you need to know for this color decade - we will list five popular colors from the 60's and you have to use three of the five colors on your card (plus one old stamp, of course)!  Have fun with this, make a card and join us!

We say goodbye to the lovely Maria Rodriquez with this challenge.  She is taking some time off and hopes to be back with us soon!  Maria has been a joy to work with and we wish her the best!

Remember to use a stamp older than a year and you must include the age (or approximate age) of the stamp in your blog post. After all – we want to give these old stamps some love!

Are you on Facebook?  If you share our challenge on your Facebook page, we will happily share your post!

To be considered for a Top Pick and to receive comments - be sure to link your card below!

Be sure to play along with us! This challenge ends April 8, 2022.

We are excited to welcome Jolanda Johnstone as our Guest Designer!  Jolanda blogs at Inque Spot Studio.  A treat for every visitor, Jolanda showcases her talents in her clean cardmaking style.  I enjoy seeing Jolanda's take on each challenge she tries and each card she makes.  This sweet card gives us a bit of spring and a whole lot of happiness with the 60's bright colors!  A true delight!  Be sure to pop over and leave Jolanda a comment!

Enjoy the inspiration of the design team!
