Challenge 24 - Fancy Folds

Wow, what wonderful entries we had last time.  It's going to be tough picking a top 3 this time!

This is our last traditional challenge for 2011.  In December it's our 2-year anniversary so we will be having a blog-hop with lots of prizes and candy giveaways so please make sure you join us on 5th December and tell all your friends.

Onto this challenge.  Our theme this week is 'Fancy Folds' and we're pleased to welcom a new sponsor, Whimsie Doodles.


 Whimsie Doodles is so excited to be sponsoring the new challenge! In March of 2009 Melyssa Connolly, artist and owner, began turning her whimsical hand-drawn images into digital files for sale online. Whimsie Doodles' digital stamp line features images that range from cute little boys and girls, to punny stuff, and everything in-between. We enjoy sharing lots of samples on our company blog, where we also post challenges and tutorials.

The prize on offer is a $10 gift certificate, but we also have a discount code for all our readers.  Simply use the discount code CFM10 at the Whimsie Doodles online store and receive 10% off your next order! Code expires 30 days from today.

We got some great images from Whimsie Doodles to work with.  Here's what the design team came up with:
