Happy Monday morning everyone!

To start the week off right... here is a beautiful card from our Guest designer Jen J. and a FUN project from Lori R :)

At first, I was taken back by this months challenge. I didn't feel like I was artsy enough to create something that would do the challenge justice. Soooooo, I decided to take the proverbial "bull by the horns" and embrace my artsy side. Which in all honesty......isn't much. But I gave it a whirl anyway! That's the joy of challenges. They get you out of your comfort zone and make you think, think, think!!! That's what I love about them!

Without further ado. Here's a little tutorial I created with directions on how to draw a Russian doll and create a template by hand. I hope you enjoy!!
