PGP Fourth Friday Challenge – Pulling at Your Heartstrings

It’s actually the fifth Friday and we hope you play along with the Paper Garden Projects Gardeners!

Our challenge to you is to create a Valentine or love themed project that includes ribbon. And if your projects also includes buttons, you will get a double entry!
You have till midnight (EST) of Friday Feb. 5 to add a comment to the current challenge post over at the Paper Garden Projects blog with a link your project. We will draw one random winner for the prize.
The rules are:

  • It must be a newly created project for this challenge - but feel free to combine this challenge with any other ones out there.
  • We'd love to see all the art you care to share, but each person will only be entered in the random drawing once (well, twice if you have ribbon and buttons).
  • The winner will be drawn randomly and announced the following Saturday.

Here’s my card for the challenge featuring Mo Manning’s Soaking up the Joy stamp which I based on this week’s SC265 sketch over at Splitcoast:

SC265 001 SC265 002 SC265 003

Isn’t she the cutest?!? Cathy has 9 different Mo Manning stamps so make sure to check them out over at the Paper Garden Projects store!

The prize will go to one lucky challenge participant and it’s a Hearts Bloom mini kit:
