#58 - sunshine on a crabby day

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to use sunshine and/or clouds on your project...this was a fun little guy that I used to teach a class at my lss with...I thought he turned out quite cute in the end...inside is the phrase "oh crab, I forgot"....play along will you?

#57 - shower curtain fun

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to make a card using your shower curtain as an inspiration...ours is just a simple boring dot one, but it made kind of a fun card....

why don't you join in the fun?  You can even use one of the design team curtains if you don't have one of your own!  Just make sure to include a picture of your curtain when you play along!

#56 - birthday butterfly

This week's challenge at the Opus Gluei is "happy birthday to me" - it was my birthday over the weekend and the girls at work sent a card around for signing for me...the funny part was that I had this card with me in the pile of cards at work and one of the girls used it to "give to her mom" and lo and behold it comes around signed and lands on my desk....it feels strange making your own birthday card...but hey, what can I say...they like them. Play along with us, will you?

#55 - oh no you din't

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to use a picture of a person on your project - real or stamped.....I have a few of these retro ladies that I picked up a few years back and just don't really use them often enough...I also like this sassy little phrase and had all these scraps laying in the scrap pile....the ribbon is probably 10 years old and I finished it up...whahoo!  Play along with us, will you?

#54 -thank you chick

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is to use a chicken in your project...I love this little paper chick and I love the paper piecing and glasses as an add on - I was teaching a class at my lss and got to use this stamp set for the class...liked it so much that I had to add it to my stash...such a surprise lol!  Play along with us, will you?

#53 - love bear

This week's challenge at the Order of the Opus Gluei is to do artists trading cards or ATC art...I am not an ATC person....but I made this one as my hubby and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary this week and felt it was kind of appropriate....also played around with some glitter ink to see it's effects...play along with us, will you?

#52 - Don't crimp my style

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is "don't crimp my style"  - you must use something corrugated on your projects...this paper came already corrugated for me, so I didn't have to locate my crimping tool...which is good cuz I haven't seen it in a while and am not really sure that I still have it in my stash....but now I may just have to look for it because I do know that I did own one at some point in my scrappy life...play along with us, will you?
