We're pretty excited this week! Still currently being sponsored by generous Shortcuts! If you haven't tried it yet, you'll love this product!
Their ready-to-assemble-and-decorate products will help you create stunning creations in minutes. Make sure you drop by their blog for lots of inspiration from their design team.
The latest ShortCuts product, Clear & Frosted Card Blanks, will help you to make fabulous clear and frosted cards. Each of the stocks is made of a thick vinyl material. Think clear/frosted cardstock- none of that flimsy transparency material. Best of all, the clear cards are fingerprint resistant. No more wearing white gloves while making your cards. You can also purchase the Clear & Frosted material in Full Sheets (8.5" x 11").

Can't wait to be picked a winner?!
Just visit their online store and enter the discount code CardPatterns15 during checkout and receive 15% off your order!
(15% will be taken off package price only, not S/H charges. Orders must contain at least $5.00 in product and be placed before August 31, 2009)
Earlier this week, we announced our Guest Designer Spotlight winner. Give it up for Eva Dobilas!

Getting to know Eva:
"My name is Eva Dobilas and I live in Southern California. I have been
scrapping/making cards for a little over 10 years and I love sketches, so I
was naturally drawn to CardPatterns. I love the inspiration here and was so
happy my card was chosen, so I get to play along with the very talented DT.
Thank you again and sure hope you like my card as much as I loved making
it."
Look how Eva transformed this sketch into such an adorable work of art!
Personally, summer is the best time to create Christmas/holiday cards. Especially if you have tons to give or mail to relatives and friends.
Let's do the math, if you create 1 Christmas card from our sketches from today until December 12 (just nice to mail out those cards), you'd make about 27 Christmas cards!
So do you need more than 27 cards? If yes, you should start now! :)
