Are you ready for the new Sentimental Sundays challenge? This week we are challenging you to create a shaped card, no squares or rectangles allowed, with a sentiment. We have two generous sponsors of our challenge this week, Meljen’s Designs and Raindrop Echo Designs.
This past week I had the sad occasion to need to make a card for a friend that lost one of her sweet pups. I immediately thought of this image from Meljen’s Designs, Dog Angel.
Stop by the Sentimental Sundays blog to see the rest of the inspiration pieces by the DT. While you are there you can download a free sentiment set from Ann Vento of Raindrop Echo Designs and link up your “Shaped Card” (with a sentiment).
If you love Meljen’s Designs images, don’t forget to check out my blog candy!
