Challenge #45 - "Shaped Cards"

Good Morning Everyone, I do hope that you are enjoying this gorgeous weather weve been experiencing over the last few days, I certainly have and Im keeping my fingers crossed it stays that way till after August 18th as my eldest grandson will be getting married on that day. Anyway you might wonder why Im standing in for Donna, well unfortunately both she and Alan her husband are really not at all well and she wants to take a bit of time out to devote it to not only recovering herself but also to nurse her husband back to full health again. I want to wish them both from "ALL" of us a very speedy recovery and I will strive do my best for you Donna, and so I hope you will forgive any mistakes I might make.

But firstly I must tell you that we are loosing our very talented Laine from our Design Team, as she has decided to spread her wings and we are so going to miss her, so Laine very good luck for your future in everything you do.

And now before I show and tell you what the girls have been upto I want to tell you who won last weeks "Girly Card" Challenge and the £10. Voucher from

The Ribbon Reel, and that lucky person chosen by random org is:-

Hello and welcome to a new challenge here at the Bearly Mine Challenges. We have a brand new fun challenge for you today here at Bearly Mine. This week it's time to use ribbon(s) and bow(s). A lovely embellishment to our cards and creations. Nothing can make a card pop like a well placed bow or a ribbon. Make notice that lace isn't counted as a ribbon here. Lace is lace. You also should use both ribbon and a bow, not only one of them.
