CCEE2248 Time Clocks

Hi Crafty Friends

Welcome to our final CCEE Stampers challenge for 2022. 

Before we get to Maryann's challenge below, I (Frances) wanted to update you about our challenge group. 

Sadly I have to let you know, that this will be our final challenge here on this blog. After over 15 years of lots of fun challenges, it's time to say goodbye! I was fortunate to be one of the foundation members of this challenge group, which started in July 2007 over on Splitcoast Stamper ... there were eight of us. We called ourselves ... Cheers & Challenges Eclectic Ensemble which later got shortened to CCEE Stampers. When we first started our challenge group there weren't many if any others around, now there are so many. We have had a lot of fun over the years, and a big thanks to all our current Design Team members for playing along each week and taking turns issuing the challenges each month. 

Thank you also for those of you who have also played along with us over the years, we love that you play along with us.

Okay ... now let's get to Maryann's final challenge for 2022.

Time is counting down to the end of the year, so I am asking that your feature clocks on your card. Think of time clocks, stop watches or even a countdown clock anything to do with time.

Wishing you all a Merry and Safe Christmas and New Year.

Now let's see what our Design Team created for this week's challenge.

CCEE2245 - Fun Folds

 

                                         Hi Crafty Friends

It is Maryann here again with this weeks challenge.

Receiving cards is so much fun, a fun fold card with a wow factor gives so much joy to the recipient.

Create a card with more than a center fold. Think of a easel, pop-up, center step or shutter card.
