Creative Crew 2024 - August

It's posting day for the Creative Crew. What exactly is the Creative Crew? We are a group of 7 card-making friends from various US locations who have a fun monthly creative adventure with a secretive twist. 

One of the group's members hosts each month. As host, she chooses a theme and then sends each of the group members a theme-appropriate image and some designer paper. The host can also include a sentiment and/or special item if she chooses to do so. The group members all receive the same items, but there is to be no conversation about what was received or the cards we're making. Then, on the 15th of the month, we all reveal our cards.

It's always fun to see how each person uses the image/papers.  

This month it was my turn to host. I chose the theme...

Summertime Grillin'

The image we are using is from the CC Designs BBQ stamp set. I also sent an optional sentiment and some designer papers.

I asked the crew to share something they like grilled. My favorite thing my husband grills is tenderized pork tenderloins. Delicious!

Here's my card:

Your card is so cute. I really like that you used so many of the sweet patterned papers! And, the sentiment is fun cut apart. Thank you for such a fun kit and being such a wonderful leader!
