LATEST TOWN SCRAPPER CHALLENGE!

Good Morning Fellow Bloggers! 

Time to usher-in a new TOWN SCRAPPER CHALLENGE!!  For this week's CHALLENGE, we'd love you to share your DISTRESSED projects.  The TOWN SCRAPPER GALS aka THE SCRAPETTES have created some awe-inspiring CHALLENGE pieces...take a peek, HERE.

Here's a couple of pics of my distressed submission.  The card features the oh-so-sweet chef, "MADE WITH LOVE LOLA."  Lola was printed on Neenah cardstock and coloured with Prisma pencils and odourless mineral spirits.

Don't forget, one lucky CHALLENGE participant will be randomly chosen to receive a special gift.  This week Phebe, owner of THE TOWN SCRAPPER, will be giving away "LOLA LOVES ALL CREATURES", a Victoria Case Town Scrapper exclusive stamp.

Have a wonderful weekend and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
