WT122 - Just around the Corner
Happy Thursday and welcome to another Way's To Use it Challenge! This week we have the "corner" on fun and your challenge is to find way's to use those corners. There are almost always corners in every design and I find that sometimes they are sadly neglected. I am quite guilty of that myself! ;) Find interesting ways to embellish your corners ...everyone can play on this one as you can use sewing, chipboard, ribbon, photo corners, brads...use your imagination. Try to come up with something besides the standard corner punches if you can!
As always, please remember to put WT122 in your keywords section and post a link back here so that we can all see your designs! If you wish to link a design that you have previously made, that is fine as long as you limit it to one and create a new project as well for challenge!
I had wanted to search the gallery for additional samples this week but I'm sorry I ran out of time. My MIL is here with a few of SIL's children and LOL, seven children in the house is making for very busy days! I did manage to squeeze in time for a card last night... I just couldn't resist playing with my new goodies!
My Sample -
Tres Chic Charbon
WT122 Gallery (I hope this works!!)
I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the beautiful sympathy cards you sent me over the past few weeks. They were all stunning and I am so touched by your kindness, thoughtfulness and words of comfort. I am quite overwhelmed with the huge number I received. Thanks so much! They have been a huge blessing to me and I thank you so much for your support. {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Friends}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Thanks for looking and have a great day -- I am off to see what is wrong with my computer monitor -- it worked great last night and now isn't. So I did this on my laptop -- I hope it works as well - different programs to figure out!

Fun challenge, Julia. I used my CB folder to make my corners, then added faux brads to it. My MIL is in the hospital and she just loves bright colors - well, she's getting them!
Mary, Get Well
Thanks for looking!
