Oh my! How time flies... we are at the end of our five-day workshop covering 5 of the hottest trends...:( It's been so encouraging reading your comments [read: compliments :)] on our projects and a big thank you to those who have been sweet enough to help spread the word via their blogs. And a ginormous thank you for the lovelies who have taken on the trendy challenges by contributing to our Flickr pool! We will be churning out prizes on June 1st! :)

Moving on to today's fun trend: Woodgrain. Let's get some creative input from the three cool chicks...*winks*

    Love all the different takes on woodgrain - I'm like Julie, I love it, but sometimes struggle with using it...but I know I have the perfect stuff in my stash to get going.

  3. All 3 of you have such distinct styles which makes it interesting to see your individual take on the trend. I own a woodgrain embossing folder, I am pretty sure I have plenty of woodgrain pp, and I even own some real wood paper...now I just need to actually use it :>) Thanks for the ideas. I never thought about using it as a background, but it would be perfect.
    I vote yes for part 2 :>) BTW, I am with Lynnda, I wish there were 48 hours in a day, but my kiddos would need to sleep for the second 1/2 so I could craft!
