Splitcoast Stuff!

Today's a big day over at Splitcoast! We're excited to be kicking off our fifth Hope You Can Cling To card drive with 3 challenges today, brought to you by the Splitcoast Team. My challenge is up, and I'd love to see your cards featuring some kind of handle (either in a shaped card or on a stamped image) as we encourage the recipients of these cards to hold on to hope.

Here's a clean and simple card I made as a sample for my challenge - these stamps are by Paper Smooches, one of our sponsors for this month's event.

 I kept it clean and simple, stamping the silhouette images and then shading with Prismacolor Pencils.

In other site news, the lovely Clare Buswell is joining us to share how she makes her beautiful Quilled Flower Bookmarks - hers is so much prettier than mine! I'm tucking mine in with my HYCCT cards - I love that big sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

Come and join us!
