FUSION (Exciting changes and a new challenge is up!)

We have made some exciting changes at FUSION. Our team has decided they would like to choose what part of the challenge they would like to complete each week. We have also decided to take a more Zen approach to the challenge so now our winner is the ZEN MASTER! 

The challenges will now last for 2 weeks so you have lots of time to play along!

THIS WEEK'S HYPOTHESIS: 

What will generate the most "ZEN" card for the week; the sketch or the inspiration photo or the two combined?

Photo Source

PROCEDURES:
1. Play with just the sketch challenge.
2. Play with just the inspiration photo challenge.
3. Or you can create FUSION by combining BOTH challenges into one card.
4. Use the challenge graphic and link back to Fusion in your post.
5. Please read the other considerations on the Experiment Page before playing along.

Here are some fabulous cards by our design team showing you how it works!

Welcome to Lynn and Geri (Our New Designers)

We are excited to welcome two new designers to the FUSION team. We are SO excited to have them joining us!

Welcome to Lynn and Geri!! I asked these ladies to share a bit about themselves.

Lynn Mangan

Hello there...it's Lynn and I am so thrilled to be part of the FUSION design team.  I love the possibility of creating with an inspiration photo, a sketch or both!  Here's a little about me:  I'm a mom to four boys, Ryan, Jonathon, Collin and Marcel who keep us busy and laughing a lot.   I am married to my high school sweetheart Pat. I am very blessed that he is a stay at home dad to our four boys. I work full time. I've been blogging for a few years now and I love creating and the wonderful blogging community!

Geri Freeman

Hello, Fusion fans!!!  Can't say how happy I am to be designing with the rest of the Fusion gals for this fun challenge!  I am an ex-special education teacher, turned stay-at-home mom to 3 kids...all school-aged now.  I feel so blessed to be able to remain home, and stay VERY active volunteering...at church with the kids and music...at the kids' schools...and at one of our local nursing homes making cards with a group there.  While card making is my favorite creative outlet...I love just about ALL things crafty!!!

We will be back tomorrow for a brand new challenge and it will be on for 2 weeks!! Woo-hoo!! We are also in the process of re-designing the blog look...we are going for a more ZEN approach.

Thanks for stopping by!
