CR84FN9
I feel very fortunate to have the support of so many friends, family and loyal followers and I hope that this challenge site will bring both lots of fun for the players as well as spark their creative spirit!
So to kick things off, I would like to introduce to you the CR84FN Design Team, this week's Guest Designer: Gladys Chia who is joining us for the CR84FN9 challenge. I would also like to announce the winner of the CR84FN8 color challenge under the "old system": Betty Wright, who we would love to invite join us for the CR84FN10 challenge.
I am so honored to introduce to the fabulously talented CR84FN Design Team. This group of ladies are ALL so amazingly creative and possess a wide range of styles yet all come together to create for fun!
CR84FN is a fun color challenge dedicated to providing creative inspiration for all, no matter your what skill level or style! Each week we will present a fabulous color combination to spark your creative talents! Any type of project (card, layout, 3D project, etc.) is welcomed! Our talented design team will offer inspiring samples to help motivate you. Each week, the design team will vote on a Terrific Top 3 and you will receive a badge that you can display, prominently, on your blog!
