Pairing Up Challenge Week 1 Robin, Vera and Myself!

Hi Everyone! So today Robin, Vera and Myself share our cards for the Pairing Up Challenge, when Jennifer McGuire and Myself took on a similar challenge a few weeks ago we had so much fun and everyone enjoyed the challenge so much, I decided to start a thread over at the Hero Arts, Flickr group to see if any of the wonderful ladies would be interested in a similar challenge. There was some great responses and so the challenge was set in place, with everyone making their own rules and having a lot of fun along the way.

So our groups challenge came up with an Inspired By Challenge, along the lines of what the talented and creative Jill Foster does on a weekly basis. Our rules were that Robin would pick one of my cards for week 1 and we would create a card inspired by mine, week 2 Vera will pick a card inspired by Robin and week 3 I will pick a card inspired by Vera.

I cannot tell you how excited I am to see what the girls have created inspired by my card and I have to tell you also that creating a card inspired by my own creation was a real challenge, but it was fun expanding the mind.

So without further ado here is the card that Robin was inspired by:

Free For All


This card was a card that I had created for Operation Write Home.

Here is the card that I created that was inspired by the above card:

I hope you enjoyed the fun post tonight and don't forget to check out Robin's and Vera's wonderful and creative cards. Make sure to check back in next week for the next installment of Inspired By Pairing Up Challenge.

Hoping to be back here again with you all tomorrow.

Hugs
