Monochromatic
Good Wednesday to you all! I'm a little late today, but have lots to share with you:) First let's get right to our featured artist. You all did fabulous creations with the sketch and this super cute card by Hazel is our featured pick! Go visit her blog here.
We also have a guest designer for the next 2 challenges. Please welcome Michelle, and here is a little about her.
I am a 52 year old married woman with two grown daughters and three delightful grandchildren all of whom I absolutely adore, I am nothing without them. I have been in the Australian Army for 6 years and was with the Queensland Police Service for 10 years and also worked for the Queensland Education department and I took time out to be a SAHM to look after my two daughters. Late last year I was forced to resign from my job in the Disability field due to workplace bullying and it really made me think what I wanted for myself. I decided that I no longer wanted to work for anyone and decided to start my own business using the art of rubberstamps, Off the Page projects, journals, teaching etc. I did a small business management course and am now living my dream. It is hard because it has been slow to get started but I will hold out and stick with it. I have been making cards for over 20 years on and off and about two years ago I became a Stampin" Up! demonstrator. Once I got my blog up and running I wanted traffic to visit and my daughter told me to put myself out there so I looked at challenge blogs and Paper Blooms amongst a few others just appealed to me. I have met some beautiful women through doing challenges and there are quite a few I now regard as friends with a couple of special friends (they know who they are) that I chat to regularly. Thanks Leah for giving me an opportunity to be a guest designer for Paper Blooms.
On to the next challenge! We are going monochromatic. Have a look at your inspiring DT creations!

Home Decor
Thank you for all who participated in the last challenge, you all used such fun and creative ways to hide your sentiments! This week's featured artist is Katie with her adorable kitty card! Be sure to keep playing with us, you never know if your card will be featured next!
Our challenge for this time is to create a home decor piece. It can be anything you can dream up from simple to lavish. We hope you'll play along with us and remember you don't have to have any Paper Blooms to join in.
We've got a couple of fun announcements, one is to introduce our Guest Designer for this month! Her name is Evlin and here is a little about her:
Hi. My name is Evelin and I'm from Malaysia but here in the blogosphere, I'm known as Quirky from A Little Bit Of Everything :) I only started card-making seriously back in April/May 2009. These past few months have been a most wonderful time for me. Everyday, I can't wait to go home from work and create some cards! I am also very blessed to have 'met' some very nice cardmakers online. I love paper & stationaries and I hoard them! Can't seem to get enough of patterned papers :) I dream of staying at home and making cards/scrapping whole day!
We also have another fabulously talented lady joining us on the DT, Carla! And here is a little something about her:
I'm Carla, a 35 yr. old SAHM of 4 fabulous kids!! We live in beautiful Ontario, Canada! I've been scrapping & card-making for about 5 years. I tend to nagivate towards bright & bold colours and patterns, have a serious blossom addiction, and love to use lots of layers and embellish my creations to the max!! I currently serve on 4 design teams, L'il Scrappers, Card Patterns, ShortCuts, & Bitten By The Bug.
