This week's challenge is all about love this week at Shopping our Stash. We are looking for a love themed project from you. I chose to use these darling little otters - because who doesn't love an otter - especially a set of otters in love?? I used the spellbinders kit of the month for December for this as I am trying to make use out of all of my products that haven't touched paper yet this year. Play along with us, will you?
This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is out with the old and in with the new and I am back to participating and using up my stuff. These last few months have been insane and I haven't been feeling too crafty, but now that Christmas is done and the new year is under way I am back into it full swing. We had travelled in September/October and I came home with some sort of wicked virus and ended up with pneumonia. It was no fun and then I felt "behind" all the way through to Christmas even though I was feeling better after about 5 weeks of being sick...the shopping wasn't done, the baking wasn't done, my cards weren't in the mail and the decorations were still in the basement. You know how it goes. I received my Crop and Create box the week before we left for our two week vacation. I had every intention of getting it done as soon as I got home and was looking so forward to it...well pneumonia had other ideas for me so I am starting it now to make sure I use up everything in the box. This is my take of the Taylored Expressions class. Play along with us, will you?
This month's challenge at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers is to use something that you have never used before or something that is new. I treated myself to this stencil from Michael's crafts as I have never seen a layering stencil in their stores and it was on sale so I thought I might have to give it a go. Not the best stencil I have ever used, not the worst either. It lined up nicely but it moved a lot while blending over top. Even with tape. Not one I will reach for often....but who knows? Play along, will you?
