WWC 260 - KAREN'S CHALLENGE: ALL ABOUT OCCASIONS

Hello Everyone!   
Happy Leap Day - February 29th, 2020
It is also known as Sadie Hawkins Day.    This is where the Women can ask for the man's hand in marriage.  So go to it Ladies!

I came across this wonderful site a few weeks ago, so thought I would try it out and share.  On the inside of each card I used one inch dsp scraps to match the outside dsp.  I made a total of 17 cards   These were made from 2 sheets of Designer Paper.

I do want to "Thank Lynn Dunn" for her wonderful Tutorial and inspiration.   

This is Lynn's Cover Sheet for her Tutorial.   She is also on u-tube.
   
Here are some of my cards:
