MAGICAL MONDAY - Clean & Simple with Limitations

YES!! YOU ARRIVED AT THE RIGHT PLACE! :o)

The special person to receive the random drawing prize for participating in last weeks challenge is: Pattie G

Please send me your address at magicintheair@att.net so I can get this out to you. CONGRATS and ENJOY!

Since this is the week of our blog hop, I thought I would kick off the week with a new look and a little transformation. So, if you want a new icon to match the new look go ahead and grab the new icon. I have left the site link the same so you do not need a new link as of right now. Also, if you are grabbing the new icon, go ahead and grab the blog hop icon as well and help us spread the word and the love for the "Recipe Blog Hop"!

Also, today please give a BIG welcome to our two new Designers Patti Nelson and Olga Jewell as well as our Guest Designer for the Month Patti J. Gilliam!

This week I bring you a image that was inspired by a picture that I seen on Kim's blog of her sweet little dog Malie. I am sure Kim can't wait to see what you do with her image! I know I can't! I think the designers did a wonderful job with this weeks challenge! So, leave the designers a message regarding their creations and also tell me what you think of our new look here!

(C) "Sweet Trouble"
(left click, then right click "save as" the larger image)

















Here is the picture Kim's dog Malie to help you know where I got the inspiration for this image.


















Kim brings us this week's challenge. Of course she wants you to use this image "Sweet Trouble" and create a "Clean and Simple card with limitations on what you can use (e.g., "NO" brads, bows, or anything that would make it challenging to mail) and a color requirement PINK, of course, must appear on your card somewhere."

The prize for this week’s random drawing for whoever participates in this weeks challenge and links their work back here is:
