Week #80 - 'Vintage White'

Hello shabby friends and welcome to another fun week of inspiration and creativity here in the Tea Room! We're super excited to have our two newest Shabby Girls, Cindy and Fran, officially beginning as Designers in the Tea Room this week -- so happy to have them on board in our little, crafty family!   This week I am our host and I have chosen the theme of 'Vintage White' along with this beautiful photo for inspiration ...


... and I ask that you create a monochromatic card or project using WHITE OR CREAM, KRAFT, BROWN OR BLACK.

Note: Because we are sponsored weekly by wonderful businesses who have graciously donated products and in the interest of fairness to all participants, any entries that do not follow our simple challenge rules will remain in the gallery but will not be eligible for the weekly prizes. Thanks for your understanding and participation!

I am pleased to introduce you all to this week's Guest Designer, Pattie Goldman - The Pampered Paper Patch!  




And some more beautiful inspiration from our September Special MONTH-LONG Guest Designer ...  Sherry Wright  - Seasons of Change!



Do you want to be the next Month-Long Guest Designer with the Shabby Girls?  It's as simple as participating in our weekly challenges and WOW-ing us with your projects!  The Shabby Girls might be calling on YOU to be the next Month-Long Guest Designer!!!

Hi I am Helen. I suffer with CFS/ME & found a few years ago I could no longer work due to my illness.  To give myself something to do (when feeling well) I decided to go back to my roots....crafting!!  I grew up drawing, knitting & 'Cutting & Sticking'Now I like to do all kinds of paper crafting, card making, altered art, knitting & sewing.I also design & draw my own digital art.My fun hobby has unintentionally grown into a li'l crafty business for me which I am loving.There is nothing I like better than to put a smile on someone's face because of my crafting :0)  You can order & buy a lot of my work from my shop.
