The Decision is Made! (& Card Challenge #4)

Thank you for all giving me your feedback on the card challenge thus far. With three votes over two, I will start posting weekly card challenges that will start Mondays at 5 pm ending the next Monday at 5 pm. I understand some of you may not be able to participate in all of them, but hopefully you can do as many as you find time for! I will be starting up the monthly prizes, so the more you participate in the greater your chances. I will draw the name on the last Monday of each month. This also means that the voting will be gone :( It was a fun little thing to have going, but for the most part, I think we all knew whose card was whose, and I do believe it may be distracting others from participating. All stampers are welcome here! I promise we don't bite ;) I will continue to keep a slideshow going on the sidebar of all current submissions. So with that.... here is Card Challenge #4: Remember to leave a note here saying you've completed it with a link to your blog, or drop a note here and send me an e-mail with a photo attached so I can post it up for everyone to see.

With it being back to school time and all, the challenge this week is all about the A, B, C's and 1, 2, 3's. Your card either needs to have a stamp with a saying that contains the letters A, B, & C ( for example: "You are the best chick I know!" or images that start with all of those letters (for instance, Apple, Banana & Cantaloupe). Tough, I know. But fun don't you think? You are worried about the 1, 2, 3's now aren't you :) How about we say that you have to only use three colours of paper, you can use two embellishments, and you have to include one piece of ribbon :)

Don't forget to notice how I labelled this post.... Looking forward to seeing all your creations! This challenge ends Monday, September 8th at 5 pm.

I am done my card, because the background was cream it did not scan very well so I put an envelope behind it so you can see.

My ABC is in the word Celebrate
My 123
1 black and copper ribbon around
2 brads all complimented with
3 colours of paper, red, blue and green.

I make this card like an envelope pocket with a slideout, when you pull up the red paper the lady is attached and comes with it.
