Challenges!

Just for fun, during National Scrapbooking Month, I thought I'd try posting some challenges to see if anyone wanted to play along! If you make a card or page, be sure to take a picture and email it to me, so I can see what great work you did. Now, of course, I'd LOVE it if you used only Stampin' Up! supplies, but I understand there are other products out there. :)

Week of May 3: Color Challenge: Use a combination of blue and yellow. This can be any shades of blues (Bashful, Brocade, Ballet, Brilliant, etc...) and yellows (Summer Sun, So Saffron, Barely Banana, etc...). These are my two favorite colors, so I'm sure these cards and pages will be beautiful!

Week of May 10: Design Challenge: Scallops are trendy and IN right now! Use scallops somewhere in your design...punches, dies, squares, circles, borders...whatever works!

Week of May 17: Image Challenge: Butterflies are fun! Plan to play along and stamp or die cut a butterfly to place somewhere on your card or page. Stampin' Up! has lots of butterfly images to choose from.

Week of May 24: Sentiment Challenge (for Cards): This is an easy one! Make a birthday card!!
Photo Challenge (for Pages): Make your focal point with a 5" by 7" photo and add extra photos or embellishments around it. This is one of my favorite scrapbooking techniques.

Have fun playing along!
