CUTplorations June Challenge

May was certainly not typical in a lot of parts around the world, though I must admit the greenery in my garden is greener than it's ever been thanks to all our rain! Here's hoping June brings what June is famous for - summer! Welcome to our June CUTplorations challenge!

CUTplorations April Challenge

It's no joke. Welcome to the April CUTplorations challenge!

We loved your coffee, polka dotty creations last month. Please be sure to watch for the winners' post on the 10th to see if you were one of our winners. Time for our new challenge.

Remember ribbon jello? This month's photo reminded me of it. But I think it should provide you with more ideas than jello ;) Go with the Easter theme. Or go graphic. Or do those seven eggs on that plate remind you maybe of a flower? Whatever. Go for it!

CUTplorations March Challenge

Well hello there, March! Hope you've got some better weather in store for all of us... But until then, did someone say "cake"?

I chose this photo in a nod to the late Kate Spade, but love that in addition to the polka dot plate and gold fork there's also coffee!!! And red velvet cake!!! Soooo many ways you could be inspired by this to have some fun with your next card creation using die cuts, don't you think? 

BTW, remember to watch for the winners' post on the 10th to see if you were chosen as one of the winners from our February challenge.
