Just to make sure no one is spoiling the fun we will set the comments on approval this week 
Any questions left? Do not hesitate and write an email to us at papiersalat@gmail.com before entering the challenge!

***************************************************
My first card showcases an adorable image by Little Claire called "Hedgehogs Square".  I'm sure by now you are sick of all the reading we have forced on you, so I will spare you the details of my card.  You do need to read this: that my part of the mystery is "W".
***************************************************
The second card I made for this week features an image by Amber Ink called "Racoons Friends".


I don't know if racoons come in brown, but in my world they do!
Good luck in all of our random draws.  I hope you enjoyed the DT's creations as you have hopped around. Now hop on over to our very talented Wenche.
