Happy August, everybody! Can you believe we're in the last third of summer already? Yikes! I'll be hosting the LOAW challenges this month, and I hope you enjoy what I've got in store for you. :)

The subject of cards has been all the buzz here at SC as of late. In honor of the new SC card kit, I challenge you this week to create a layout using any supplies you wish. But THEN...use your scraps from that same layout and make a coordinating card. I challenge myself to do this from time to time, and I think it's fun. It's a good way to stretch your scrapping dollar, too. :)

Be sure to post both your layout AND your card and link us up here so that you can be entered for the drawing! :)

thorold, I LOVE how you used that patterned paper from ELMWOOD to create that burst on your card! That's great!

Fun! I'm gonna play along this month. Will do mine tonight when I have some quiet time!

And Thorold - swooning over that flower on your card! How clever!
