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.

Our guest designer this week is:

May Technique Challenge

Hello everyone, Tracy again.

It is time for me to set my last challenge as Host. Before I get into that, I want to thank everyone who has joined in on the challenges I have set. It has been wonderful to see what you have created.

For the challenge for week 4, I got to choose between a Technique or choosing a Stash item to highlight, I chose ...

This should be easy for everyone to participate in, as I am sure we all have punches that don't get the love they once did. Plus some dies that we haven't used yet or ones that haven't been used in a while. This is your opportunity to use them again. Plus, using both types on your creation could also be an option. The design team and I look forward to seeing what you create and share with us.

Our Guest Designer this week is

Urška

Thank you for being a part of our team this week.

Now it is time for myself, and the design team to show you how we used our die cuts and punches
