DDCC #82: July 15 ~ Criss Cross Card

What a fabulous response to our challenge last week, thanks everyone!! Moving on to our super fun challenge for this week and of course our oh so generous sponsor for this week...


Here's a short bio about Sew Many Cards

My name is Angela and I own Sew Many Cards. I have a husband, an almost 10year old daughter, a two year old son, and a dog/puppy: Hershey. The images of Sew Many Cards came from a dream that my husband had of a group of animals that were "SEWN Together" with patches and stitching, hence the name, which he also came up with. You will find that every image in the Sew Many Cards collection has patches and stitching, even the ones that are not animals. I love to draw and almost every image is either an inspiration from my family or a request from my great customers and design team, so please ask if you need something specific or would like to request something be made. You can contact me at angela@sewmanycards.com

They kindly donate 5 digi images (winners choice).

Our challenge this week is to make a Criss Cross Card. I have provided the link to the Splitcoast tutorial that I used but feel free to adjust the measurements for the size you would like.

So here is some fabulous inspiration to get you started!



















I just wanted to clarify that you are most welcome to enter our challenge more than once but a maximum of twice (2 times) per challenge. Our "rules" so to speak are listed up underneath "Welcome" on the top left (was the right hand side until I changed the blog layout) of the page. Please be sure to prodive a direct link to your creation as well as a link back here to the challenge blog.

Our DT samples this week are so fabulous and we can't wait to see what you come up with! You have 2 weeks to enter this challenge and entries will automatically close at 11:59 MST, Wednesday, July 28th.

Have fun with this one!
