CHALLENGE #18 - LISTEN TO THE RHYTHM OF THE FALLING RAIN

Hello all you crafty peeps!  We have a New QUEEN joining our Royal Realm this week!  QUEEN MELISSA from A PAPER JOURNEY!  Melissa is very talented, and you are going to LOVE her projects!  I'm so excited to have her join our team!  Don't we have such a great group of Queens to inspire you every week!?!  :)


If you have contacted me with interest in being a Paper QUEEN, I have NOT forgotten about you!  I have an on-going list and will be adding you guys slowly over the next few weeks, so hang in there!  If you have not contacted me, but are interested in being a PAPER QUEEN, you can email me at northrose@slowar.com.


You Guys blew us AWAY last week with all your awesome AUTUMN projects!  We had almost 100 entries!  Everything from cute, to spooky, to eerie, to traditional, to funky.... go check out what everyone did!  It's FABULOUS!  Our winner (picked by RANDOM.ORG) is PEGGY over at COLORFUL DESIGNS!  Congratulations, Peggy!  Please email me at northrose@slowar.com, and I will tell you how to claim your prize!


Now, on to Challenge # 18... and how appropriate it is right now because it is POURING down rain where I live!  Make any paper craft project inspired by this theme: "LISTEN TO THE RHYTHM OF THE FALLING RAIN"


You can actually use any type of WATER on your project - rain, snow, frost, ice, sleet, dew, waves, river, sea, pool, puddle, bubbles, etc.  Just use your imagination!  Post your link with the blue button below by midnight Sunday EST.
