As of June 23rd from US Postal Service at https://about.usps.com/newsroom/service-alerts/international/welcome.htm, Kenya is still on the list of unavailable transport, so I still cannot mail my card to my friend in Kenya.

I love that friendship is always an option. I make more friendship cards than anything else & know that I can use one for the CCC. Often I've already entered it in a challenge, but for me a card in the mail is always a treat even if I've seen it on-line. One of my favorite color challenges is always black & white with a touch of another specified color. Thank you both for all the work involved to keep this wonderful card chain going!

I like the idea of a technique suggestion. Maybe to try a technique you have never tried before with a note in with the card explaining how the card was made. Or maybe a 'free-for-all' where no sketch or color combo is suggested, anything goes. I would also love a challenge to come up with a card that has a different fold, something other than the standard side or top folding card.Denise Bryanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14553432871345452930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9198331969905059749.post-5001687121386550882020-06-22T08:55:03.822+02:002020-06-22T08:55:03.822+02:00I think you give a great selection of themes, so i...I think you give a great selection of themes, so it's been hard to think of anything new!

You girls rock with the themes every month - I usually go with the colours and sketch and basic friends... so I should try more techniques and products... I'm suggesting we use some of those papers/DPs that we've had in our stash for years and hardly ever see the light of day now - I have pads and pads of them - how about everyone else??
