Week 230 ~ Focus on Sentiment




Guest Designer

Please meet....

Agnieszka (Laurkowa Kraina)


I 'm the teacher.  I teach English and French. I work at primary school this year. I draw and paint from an early childhood but it has always been a hobby. I discovered cardmaking two years ago while I was looking for some leisure activities on the Internet to do with my daughter. I thought that  cardmaking would be something that would allow me to boost my passion to higher level. And I'm in love with it.
It calms me down and I have the chance to spoil my family and friends with beautiful cards. Recently somebody has  ordered my cards for money, so maybe I will have a new job?

~ Agnieszka



I love the quote from Little Prince Agnieszka!

Week 229 ~ Diagonals



Guest Designer

Please meet....


"Hello, I’m Carol (aka *c*) from Just me: c, joining you from my small town at the edge of the scenic Rocky Mountains in Alberta, Canada. My journey into cards began two years ago, when I decided to make and send Happy Month Old cards to my niece, who was 2 at the time (she’s now 4 ½ and my nephew 2 ½ - and yes, the card ‘tradition’ continues). The ‘mess’ of my first attempt sent me searching the internet for ideas; like many of us, that initial step and the discoveries revealed sparked a ‘passion’ and here I am, thoroughly immersed in crafting with paper, stamps, inks and dies. I’m honoured and delighted to share my diagonal-inspired card alongside the dazzling delights created by the incredibly talented City Crafters’ Challenge Blog team. Thank you for inviting me to join you


Such lovely card Carol!
Please stop by Carol's blog to say HELLO!

Welcome!!!!!!!

I am so excited.....

and can't wait to tell you....

City Crafter Challenge Blog

has a new DT

WELCOME! 



Stella is a long time friend of CCCB, I've invited her to join our team and she said YES!

Hooray!!!!!

Here's a little bit about Stella.

Hello! I am Stella Schenkel and living in Groningen; located in the northern part of the Netherlands (Europe). Working at an insurance company, married with Marcel and mother of two grown up sons. I started cardmaking in 2006 and my style has changed a bit over the years. From attemps to create shabby cards I turned over to  cards with a CAS or modern  twist. And from time to time with an elegant accent.  I have a place in my heart for all shades of blue; from dark blue till aqua and pale blue. Stripes, polka dots, stars, sequins and twine are things that love to use on my cards/projects.

I am excited to join this incredibly talented team. I feel honored and I hope that we all can be a source of inspiration for you to join our challenges! 


Welcome once again Stella!
we are so happy to have you on board!
