FBC 22 Two or More Patterned Papers AND...

Good Morning!

I have several announcements to share with you this morning, so please be prepared for a long post!!! THANK you to everyone who participated the past two weeks in our anything goes challenge and those of you who did the optional sketch. I loved looking at all of the gorgeous cards. Unfortunately we can only have one winner and that winner is:

HAZEL
with this darling card.

Hazel, I guess it pays off to enter multiple times!!! :) Your cards are all so sweet. I need to get on the ball, you are already ready for your Christmas Card mailing for sure!!! Thanks for playing along and please email me (address in sidebar) with your choice of image.
You can check out the shop here: Fresh Brewed Designs

The challenge I have for you this week is to
USE TWO OR MORE PATTERNED PAPERS

The cards I created for you are created with one of Fresh Brewed Designs new rubber stamps:
I'll Take Mine to Go!
YES! we now sell rubber!!! AND a new shop!!! And to celebrate we are having a GRAND OPENING PARTY over at Paper Craft Planet. Check out THIS POST for more details. I do hope you will join in on the fun!!! There are several games, challenges and prizes to be won that night!!! You dont want to miss it!!!
There is also a new badge in the sidebar linking the new shop. Feel free to snag and /or replace your other with this one!

I have to start this part of the post by saying THANK YOU to everyone who applied to the team. I know I cut the time a little short. I meant for the call to be over on the 10th (the night of the 9th) but in my madness in my head, I posted wrong. Forgive me for that.
It was so wonderful to get so many people interested and seeing so much talent come through my email. I feel so very honored and blessed that so many people tried out. I had to narrow the applicants nearly in half (which was SO hard to do) and am now ready to announce the new team

Drumroll please.....

Freshly Brewed Challenge and DT Call

OOPS!!! I meant to set the inlinkz for 2 weeks!! My bad!!! I see that this sketch is not so much of a mojo drawing one at the moment ;) so I am also making it optional for this week. Let's see some cards ladies!!! I did have time to create one myself :) Shocker!!! I have been so busy lately. Don't forget about the DT call. If you are interested SCROLL DOWN to read more.

This weeks challenge is simply anything goes

Jeanette

I hope you will get to get sketchy with us and brew up a fun creation of your own!
Please take time to read the post below about the DT call:

Now, we have some big things going on over here at FBC this week. This challenge will run for 2 weeks due to the changes we are undergoing. My current DT whom I love and hold so close to my heart has been with me for around a year now. After talking with my girls, we decided it was time to move on to new things and to lighten their burdens for a while. It breaks my heart to see them go, but I know that they have other things in their lives to attend to. They are the start of FBD and the Crew and will always be a big part of the team.

Fresh Brewed Designs is having a FULL DT CALL. We are looking for people who love to create and are excited to be a part of getting a new business on it's feet and walk around out there. We need to meet new people and fellowship Fresh Brewed Designs style!

If you are interested, here is how you can apply for the team and what we require:

Fresh Brewed Challenge 20

Ladies. I am in a rush and have to go. I am so sorry for the delay this morning. I am not able to get the next challenge up right now. I have personal things to attend to this morning and was unable to get everything prepared. I will get it up this afternoon. Thank you for understanding.

**Important** FBD email issues

you can find the current challenge here

Many of my friends emails have been hacked into and I have let them know through alternate emails or in a group setting. They changed their password and all was fine. Now, My freshbreweddesigns yahoo account has been compromised. I can no longer access this account. Someone has broken into it and has changed my password among other things making it appear impossible for me to get into it. I have contacted yahoo several times, with no luck. PLEASE do not email me at the freshbreweddesigns@yahoo.com until I say otherwise. In turn, please do not open any emails sent to you through that account. It is not from me and I would not want you to receive spam on my account. Forgive me if I have caused you any problems.


**update**
there has been no hope in sight for my old email address. sniff. I am offering a special on my newest images since I am unable to add them to the shop at the moment.

Due to my issues with my old email **sniff**, I will not be adding the newest images to the shop until sometime next week. I am giving you all a special price on these new and old images in one limited time set. If you are interested in
purchasing the set of 16 images for $30 (saving you $18) or any single images at $3, please email me at my new email

1 Candy Corn Pirate and Ballerina
