The Card Concept Challenge : 193a New Arrival and 193b-Busy Bee

 Hello my stampy friends!

I hope all of you are well and having a beautiful Spring!

I want to let you know that we have a new challenge starting today at the

CARD CONCEPT! 

And it is the time of the month for our dual challenges!

You can pick one or both to create a project and share it with us HERE.

I was inspired by the cute little raccoon  in 193a to create my 

Clean & Layered style card.

Clean lines

~Lots of Layers

~Designer papers, embossing

~Embellishments/accents

~Clean & Fresh looking

~Some colored images

~White space

Here is my card:

I stamped this darling little raccoon onto some Copic Friendly card stock.

I colored the image with Copic Markers. The pattern paper is from an older Stampin Up collection. I thought it matched perfectly with the raccoon and the theme.

I hope I have inspired you to join our challenge!

We love seeing all of your beautiful creations, and

we want you to have fun with your inspiration!

Here's how you can join us:
