Black & White & Read (Red?) All Over!

It was, once again, my turn to hostess the Free for All Challenge on SCS last Friday. I decided to incorporate one of my favorite designer series papers of ALL time ... First Edition!

The challenge was to create a card using newsprint of some sort (paper, stamped image, etc.). Remember the joke from when we were kids?? "What is black and white and read (red) all over?" I decided extra "points" would be earned for adding black, white and/or red ... there is a teeny bit of red in my poppies, so I covered all of my bases.

I have a CRAZY week ahead! Soooo much to do ... lots of work for my Artisan Design Team (more details to come on that LATER), 500+ wedding invites to address for my friend's wedding (inside AND outside envelopes!!), the Control Freaks Blog Tour (which will be posted late TUESDAY evening - November 20 ... a day later than usual!), Thanksgiving, Black Friday shopping, Christmas trees to put up and decorate ... I'll be SOOO happy if I survive!!
