Two New Challenges
Good evening, hubby is resting so I have been able to get in some stamping time. I have so much to share with you tonight. I have learned of two more challenges today, I really luv finding new challenges. there is a list down the side of my blog if you are looking for a new one. The first challenge is from over at SCS the dear Anne Ryan has started a challenge to showcase a stamper each week. The Featured Stamper every Sunday is one of my favorite challenges so this challenge is fabulous too! There are so many wonderful stamping gals in the stamping arena it is wonderful to bring attention to as many as we can. You can learn more about the Queen For The Day, QFTD02 challenge and play along. This weeks queen is the dear Marilyn Preston, you can see the card I cased here.
I also found the new Poppy Seed Challenge, PSC02 by Lisa Johnson. This weeks challenge is to use buttons, polka dots, and light moss, you can learn about it here. I used the gorgeous Basicgrey Designer Paper Kioshi this paper is so pretty. I also used a Fiskars Upper Crest Border Punch, I added a ribbon tied with a button and linen thread.
