First, a bit of design team news. This will be Marilyn's last challenge with us as a designer. Sadly, after many years of being on our design team, we must say goodbye to Marilyn. She needs a break from the challenge obligations to pursue other interests and while we understand we will certainly miss her! Marilyn was one of the ORIGINAL designers for Cards in Envy from way back when we first started with Denise as the co-host of the blog/challenge. We'll always keep a place open for Marilyn if she decides to come back and hope she'll be able to join a challenge now and then as a participant! Wish her a fond adieu. We love you Marilyn and hope to see you around!!
Now, for some Baby Blue and Pretty Pink card inspiration for you from our designers. We have a lovely assortment for you. Please click on each designer's blog name for more details about their card creation and leave them some comment love if you do stop by their blog.

We'd love to see your Baby Blue OR Pretty Pink cards. Please read over our challenge requirements and then share your card in the linky at the end of this post.
Here are a few reminders about our challenge requirements:
- No lumpy, bumpy cards. Elements on your card need to be relatively flat (no thicker than 1/4") so your card would fit in an envy (envelope) for mailing
- Limit entries to 3 per challenge.
- No Back Linking--cards must be posted to your blog or an online album during the challenge dates. If it was posted online BEFORE the beginning of our challenge, it cannot be linked.
- Entry must be for the current theme.
- Cards Only--NO TAGS
Additional rules can be found under the Challenge Guidelines tab at the top under our blog header.
Our Designers will be voting on the cards after the challenge ends and the winners will be announced by Wednesday morning following the close of the challenge.. We will have one FIRST CLASS which is the card that receives the most votes from the Designers and considered the best overall card for the theme. The Designers will also pick one card as their personal favorite for an IN THE MAILBOX badge. That means we may have up to 10 In the Mailbox cards for a challenge. We decided to go with this fun method as each Designer has their own unique style and preference. Each chosen may grab one of our fun badges for their blog! The badges for the challenge will be in the winners post following the close of the challenge after all the Designer votes are in. The winners will also be announced on our Facebook Page, so come Like us so you'll know quickly if you are a winner.
