Week 161: PLAID

 

It's pattern time!  Bring on the plaid this week...or whatever that makes you think of.  Flannel shirts, (not so) stylish pants...what exactly is this cue word going to bring to our gallery?!

Before you start brainstorming, let's take a look at what the design team & our guest designer created to inspire you!

    Oh ya! I wish I had a kilt to wear while stamping. I'll just have to settle to listening to "Scotland the Brave" and wrapping a tartan blanket around me. ;) No offense to the non-Scottish residents of the U.K. :) Thanks for the great inspiration and challenges CASolgy. As always, you ladies rock!!

      Thanks, Melissa! I would have shared the link, but wondered if that might be inappropriate! I was really excited to share the card with you and am glad you came over and found it!! Thanks so much for taking a look, for the nice comment and for including the link above. :)

    I always admire crafters that can 'pull off' CAS cards; love your examples and thanks for a great challenge.
