This week's challenge is SFC0614 Square Pegs!
The challenge this week is called I Give Thee a Recipe! The Recipe has three ingredients, use some piece of pattern paper, some twine, and at least one brad/eyelet or button (your choice). We'd love for you to use a Squigglefly image, to be prize eligible it's required, but everyone is welcome to play along.
Let's start with some inspiration from the Holley Hobbyists:
Linda Weber is joining us this week with her card, This image is called Firefly Frenzy Maddie and Max from artist Cheryl Alger. She's using some gorgeous printed papers, a cute metal heart button and twine across her card and in her button. Great Job Linda!
Jan Marshall created this wonderful tag. She used black and white baker's twine and a great brad. The printed paper is the base. Her image is from Squigglefly artist Enid Barnes called Tiger. What a great combo for the Challenge.
Elizabeth Hart created an adorable card using a brand new stamp from artist Cheryl Alger. This stamp is Just a Whisper. She's also using a wonderful sentiment from artist Charlene Mitchell called A Big Little Hello. Don't you love her combo of the items for this week's recipe?
Darlene Pavlick created this awesome Owl card using an fun image from Fawn Palmer. It's called Framed Owl. It comes with the sentiment shown in two different fonts plus an additional owl sentiment. Isn't this card sweet?
Tammy Hair created this card (which I think would be perfect for men or boys!!) using a great new image from artist Enid Barnes called Elephant II. She's got wonderful matching printed paper, and great eyelets that she used to run the twine in.
And lastly, I (Holley Barnhart from Holley's Blog) chose to use printed paper as my background, I am using black and white twine on the red cardstock and I added three buttons. This fun image is Shih Tsu from artist Enid Barnes. I am also using a sentiment from the Squigglefly stamp set Just Flyin By.
I hope these cards have inspired you to make a card to play along this week. You are always welcome to play no matter what images you use, but to be eligible for the prize, please use at least one stamp from Squigglefly!

To help us make sure we don't miss your artwork, we are asking that if you do use an online gallery that you leave us a comment on the challenge post. That way we'll be sure to have a member of the Squigglefly team who is a member of that gallery (SCS, CDAC, PCP, etc) can validate your entry.
1.) If you up-load your creation to any on-line photo galleries, please use SFC0814 for your keywords when loading your creation photo there. 1b) please leave a comment on the challenge blog post so that someone from Squigglefly can validate your entry for the prize.
2) You don't *have* to include a Squigglefly image on your creation, but in order to qualify for the prize you will need to use one! You can also combine SF images with non-SF images to qualify!
