    PIO #33 Blue, blue, blue

    Hi everyone!
    This week we have a new sponsor.  I have been working with Krisi for sometime now.  She has some amazing templates that can be for digital or just cards and paper crafting. In Krisi's Kreations store you will create templates for cards, boxes, cake slices, and more.  She also has some amazing sayings and unique fonts. If you are looking for really simple projects then look no more because she has some amazing "Print It" projects, where all you need to do is print and assemble, all the designing work is done for you.  These are perfect for when you have to do big quantities, like party goodies bags.

    The winner of this week's challenge will receive a $15 gift certificate to be used in Krisi's Kreations store.

    This week's challenge is pretty simple.... blue, blue, blue.... We want to see projects using three different shades of blue!  Now let's see what the amazing DT ladies did... Check their blogs since they LOVE comments!
