On behalf of our poorly Polly, I have been asked to post this weeks challenge as : Decoupage.

A bit explained about decoupage here:

Thanks mumoftwo - hope polly gets well soon. I'll do a card and send it to her but if she's not well enough it won't matter.
I did do a card (of sorts) this morning but think my version of decoupage might not be the same as everyone elses...............lol Not sure whether to send it or have another go so I'll see how the week goes.

You have done well and they're all really lovely.
Be Wednesday before I get the chance to have another go at my decoupage. I think I've got some decoupage pieces I had when I bought a packet of stuff. Not a patch on yours but think they'll have to do.............lol

Great - decoupage week! Apologies for the no show on the tissue paper challenge, I didn't have a clue what to do. Made a few cards today and yesterday, I'll try to post a few.
Shaz - a fantastic collection of cards. My favourite is the frog one, (I used to be in love with kermit!). I love the frog backing paper was that downloaded? When I first started card-making all of my cards looked the same, so I think its very impressive how all of your cards are different and use different materials.
Quicksave, love your cards too, you are obviously very talented!
Polly - get well soon!!!!
Chickadee - love the colours on your card, well done for managing to use tissue paper! Also love the boy card, cute teddy!
Mary, great tissue paper cards too, everything matches perfectly!
ILC - where are you???
Craftgranny - are you busy using your stuff you got from jillcraft???
