Well, are you having a good time so far? Did your work on the Bridal Challenge get your creative juices flowing? Just in case it didn't, we have another fun challenge coming your way!
Below you will find patterns like you would use for making clothing, only these are designed as a unique version of card sketches. You are challenged to create a card using one of the card patterns to help you warm up for the day! Just pick a favorite and go from there! Maybe use this as an opportunity to ink up a set that has yet to be loved!
Here are all the patterns and each team member's take on their patterns. Click on any of the sketches to enlarge them for easier reading. Be sure to click through to each of the designer's blogs because they have a SECOND card using their sketches that you won't want to miss!

How do the designers do it? Their cards always look fabulous while mine just look homemade. I guess that is why they get the ‘big bucks.’ Thanks for all the inspiration.

I just love all of the wonderful card patterns, and will refer to them again and again! This is my first year to actually participate in Stamp-A-Faire. (I just watched the past two years.)
