Welcome to Wednesday! It's time for another Paper Pretties Weekly Challenge! You may have noticed that we took a few weeks off, but you might not know why! Well, here is the BIG news!

Trust me, you are going to want to take advantage of this sale and get to see first hand about our all new changes!

Now back to the Wednesday Challenge, today we are kicking things off at Frances' blog, so if you haven't started there head on over!

We are all sharing with you our cards following the current challenge which is to create a summer card, then you will have until July 6th to try this one out for yourself! For my project today I decided to ink up Soakin' Up the Sun! I pulled out this fun cloud paper I found and added the sand paper that I also had, I think the layering turned out nicely! I really did enjoy this challenge, the summer is always bright and fun! So after you get your inspiration for the week, you may just want to hop over to the Paper Pretties Store and see where is takes you! I can't wait to see what the other ladies decided to create, check out the other Pretties Girl's creations:
