Challenge #4

This week's challenge is to USE YOUR SCRAPS

Rules.. No paper larger than 4" squared.

That means that all that new stuff that you are just "dying" to dig into will have to wait one more day. Take a look at all those great scraps you've been keeping for such a time as this.
Once you get started, you will be happy to have created something with what you've been SAVING for so long.!

ChantalIt was teacher's convention last week, and that means kids at home. Chantal got her 4 kids to help her with this challenge; and I like how fun it turned out! I think I'm going to try this next week with my kids. FUN!

So now, we want you to play along.
We love to see what you create, so leave a comment and a link to your blog or gallery.
It's all about taking some time out, go, create, allow yourself that little bit of time to escape from it all.

Can't wait to see what you create.

SO GET CRAFTING!!!

Challenge #3

This week's challenge may just reveal something about yourself that the average person does NOT know:

COLLECTION
Create a project based on something you collect.

We challenged the team to create and that is just what these FABULOUS Ladies have done.

Here are their amazing projects.

And, if what you collect is not all organized and perfectly displayed...we want to see that too!

Go on, get crafting!

Challenge #2

It's time now to show you the creations of our second half of the Design Team!!!

This week's challenge is SPECIAL MEN.
This could be anyone... It doesn't have to mean husband, it could be your Dad, a Teacher, anybody. Or Create a Card for the Special man in your life. The possibilities are endless!!

I've been waiting impatiently to show you all these great projects. I'm inspired and ready to get creating again...I've needed inspiration lately!
