Good morning everyone!!!  What a gorgeous week we had last week visiting all your vintage creations!!!  There were so many wonderful interpretations of "vintage," it was really a delight to see them all!!  It did however, mark the last challenge with the winter/spring team, which means......today is the first challenge with our new teammies!!!!

We were trying to think of a creative way to introduce the 6 new ladies to you.  We decided on...drawing inspiration from the colors of our flag.  That way you can see where they are all from!  Fun huh?  So whether you're red, white, and blue; green, whitem and orange or any combo in between, we want to see your colors!!!!!  And please let us know where you're from too!!!
