Hope For Japan Crop

Dawn's card

On Saturday I participated in a crop at Teri Baxter's home and we were given a challenge to make a card with everyone using the same paper elements.  We could also use other embellishments or stamps to create our cards for the contest.


Kimberly's card

 At the end of the crop, Teri asked her sons to judge the cards and pick a winner.  

Teri's card

Teri didn't tell her boys who had made what card so it was fair to say they were not influenced.  

Erlinda's card

I used the stamp set "Hope" to create my card.  Close to my Heart is donating all the proceeds from the sale of this stamp set to the American Red Cross Japanese Earthquake and Tsunami fund.  If you're interested in helping out this good cause, you can contact Teri Baxter at http://www.stamphearts/ @yahoo.com or check her blog:  http://www.themidnightartist.blogspot.com/.

And the winner of the card contest is ....drum roll .... "Kimberly" won!  This was a great crop and I felt I accomplished a lot. 

Thanks for stopping by and please come back and visit me soon. 

 Sending you embossed hugs, Erlinda
