We had a really great turnout to our very first challenge at Paper Therapy. Thanks to everyone who participated. Congratulations to Kimberly - our first winner!
This weeks Challenge is a little more challenging - and best described by our fearless leader - Kristin:
This week we have a product challenge for you.
Make a project using the first stamp you ever bought.
If you don’t have it anymore then use the earliest stamp you have.
What a fun way to pull out those oldies but goodies.
They need some lovin too!!
Can't wait to see your stamps.
Here's my take on the Challenge:
This weeks challenge was definitely a challenge for me - I've done cards for so long without stamping that I nearly forgot how to make a card where the primary focus is a stamp. My inspiration came at Croptoberfest from one of our croppers. She saw my stamp and asked to borrow it. She stamped it on a page torn from an old dictionary - GENIUS! I did the same, reinforced it with cardstock and rubbed it down with my brown chalking ink. I was really pleased with the way it came out. It's also inspired me to think outside of the box- and I hope it's inspired you too.
In other news, work has been super busy! It's only Monday and I know it is going to be a long week. On a brighter note, it's 1 week closer to my Birthday and I can not wait. I am looking forward to spending time with my family and friends this weekend at the Fair and at home. I'm also anxious to get some pictures taken of the cards I made this past weekend at Croptoberfest - I'll try to get those up later this week, as well as more details from the Ghost Hunt.
Have a great week and be safe!!
