Party Time Tuesdays PTT#23 Square Cards

Thank you for such a great turn out this past week.  So many wonderful cards.  Such hard decisions to make.  Please visit us on Thursday for last weeks winners!

Just a quick FYI.....if you thought your card was a bang, and just cannot figure out why you were not choose???  Please pay attention to all of each weeks rules.  Most recently I have added a requirement that you please have our badge posted in your sidebar and to be a follower.  This will be the norm through the end of the year.  We have experienced a large increase in our number of players. So to make things totally fair I have decided the Party-ers who support us the most will have a better chance of getting their cards chosen as a winner or as the VIP Top 3.  This way being faithful to our challenge blog can actually pay off!!!  Hope everyone understands.  If you would just like to get your card seen on the blog but don't want to post our badge....go for it!  We love the inspiration!!!

So for our Square card theme this week...please also become a follower and post our badge in your sidebar.  Thanks so much!  We look forward to seeing some great inspiration.

We have a few really HOT sponsors this week!  I am so excited to have Flower Soft's Sister Company Charlie's Ark, a very cool scrap store Robin's Nest, and the ever so famous digi and Rubber store-Paper Pretties!!!  Here is a bit of information about each:
