August Technique Challenge

 Good morning Christmas lovers and cardmakers!

Valentina here with you today as an August hostess.
Here is the last challenge of the month at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown.

But first I want to thank you all who were inspired and have participated in these month challenges.
You were so creative and you made many beautiful creations!

The last week is a Technique/Stash Challenge. 
For my last challenge of the month, I picked a Technique challenge that I learned in a 
Card Maker Success Summit with Erin Reed and it's it's called

TEEPEE CARD

I hope you will enjoy trying something new. 
This is a great opportunity to learn how to make a new shape of a card that looks like
an Indian teepee or in December it could also become a Christmas tree.
Here is a little help, a simple and short video how to make it.

Here are beautiful inspirations from our Design Team.
Please click through their blogs for more information and to show your appreciation.
