Let’s get to this month’s challenge:

- Design Team Hostess: Christine
- Optional Shop: Concord & 9th
- Hostess sponsored Caffeinated Crafty Prize: Check out challenge post

Here’s how I was inspired:

My project features these products by Concord & 9th:
- Tree Topper | dies + stamp
- Cup of Kindness | dies
- Friendly Florals | dies
My overall color palette is
- Poppy | Concord & 9th
- Parsley | Concord & 9th
- Matte Gold | Spellbinders
I snuck in the Pretty Pink Posh – Wish Big Script | die

I did a bit of slicing and dicing with the interior stamped sentiment. I had to snip up the sentiment to get it to read what I wanted.

I can’t wait to see how my teamies and the Guest designers were inspired, check out the post HERE.
