hi everyone!

this week’s Perfect Sentiments challenge is another great card to make for your “stash” – wedding anniversaries always seem to sneak up on me, and it is really nice to have a card all ready to go!  this week’s challenge is to make a card with a sentiment for a wedding anniversary – and as a twist, use this photo as your inspiration for your creation:

use the image in any way that strikes your fancy – there is a lot of inspiration for this challenge here – ruffles, white/black with a bit of pink, even the star on the wall – let your creativity run wild!!!

this week’s sponsor is Shelly’s Images:

Shelly is giving away a $9 voucher (equal to 3 digi images) to one lucky random winner!  some really cute images over there, you should definitely stop by and check out what Shelly has to offer!  as always, we will be selecting a “Perfect 3″ as well, so get your entries linked up to the blog for your chance to win either of these prizes!  stop by the blog on Friday to see the past week’s “Perfect 3″ and winner of the challenge prize!

here is what i came up with for inspiration for you this week!

oh, how i love my Silhouette!  there’s always something on there that inspires me – this diecut was the inspiration/starter for this card, i really think it turned out great!!!

don’t forget to stop by the rest of the Design Team’s blogs to check out what they have to inspire you with as well!

get your creations linked up to the Perfect Sentiments blog no later than Tuesday, December 20th @ 10:00PM EST via the inLinkz at the bottom of this week’s challenge post… we are all excited to see your creations for this challenge!  we really appreciate all of you who have come out and participated in our challenges and made this new challenge blog a fun place!  although my Design Team stint with this group is coming to a close at the end of the month, i really hope to be able to continue to participate in their challenges when i can in the future, because it’s always really nice to have inspiration for a card i wouldn’t have thought of making!  i’m certain that Perfect Sentiments will continue to be a wonderful place for inspiration and fun challenges, and for creative minds to come together and share what they have made!  thank you from all of us for making this challenge blog a success so far – we are really enjoying inspiring you and being inspired by what you create!

well, i’m off to watch “The Help” – it looks amazing  then to straighten up my craft area – i completely rearranged my entire bedroom/crafty space tonight so now there is a huge pile of miscellany on my desk that needs to find a home so i can get back to crafting ASAP! good luck to everyone on this week’s challenge & happy scrappin’!
