Make 12 cards. That's it! That's the whole challenge. (But you can read the first challenge thread here for the full write up.) If you are playing for points: 1 point for each card you make, whether 1 or 20. Once you make a dozen, take 8 bonus points-- so your first dozen cards are worth 20 points total. If you make two dozen, you can have another 8 bonus points. (So, 20 points total per dozen available.) If there's a bonus challenge/prompt, and you use it, take another 10 points. July (optional) prompt: use a sketch as the starting point for your card(s). Remember that you do not have to make a literal interpretation of a sketch-- you can flip it, add elements, etc. You are also free to create your own sketch (although if I could do that, I wouldn't need a sketch in the first place). Another option for this prompt would be to use a set of dies that basically serves the same function as a sketch (MFT's Blueprints collection is a really good example of the kind of dies I mean, with dies for various component shapes). ADDITIONAL BONUS POINTS OPTION: For 10 more bonus points, share a link to, or picture of, the sketch or die set you used and spread the inspiration. I don't have any cards completed for this month, but I did find a link to some sketches to get you started. Note that the post is from 2019, so any giveaways are closed. I like Sketch #3.

This is not a sketch, but I really liked the design of this card I had snipped and saved from on line. Sorry. No source. And here are three cards inspired by that sample:
That is ten cards for me this month. I will try to put together a couple more to reach the dozen...

That is a neat source card! I like your take on it, with the fishtail pieces.

Wow, MARIBETHR, you were very busy! I love fruit themes, so the citrus ones are my favorite.
