Flashback Friday

I stumbled across this challenge called Flashback Friday. The challenge this week is post the first tag you ever made. I don't know if this is the first tag I actually made, but it's the first one I posted to my blog...on July 9, 2009:

ACK! Oh well, that's part of the fun, right...to look back and think that we've (hopefully) gotten a little better at this paper crafting thing. :)
Do you have an old tag you'd like to show off this week? Repost it to your blog and link it up to the challenge to be in the running for fabulous prizes!

Homecoming Challenge

Today's challenge at Catch the Bug is "Homecoming Dance" what does that mean, you ask? Well, don't worry. It only means that you have to make a card using your school colors. Phew. My high school colors were red, white and blue and my college colors were blue and white. So, I left out the red and went with blue and white which freed me up to make a snowman card (yay!)

Think back to what your school colors were and make a card to enter into our challenge. Can't wait to see what you create!

The Greeting Farm Challenge

Today the Bugaboo team gets to play along with The Greeting Farm in their challenge. The challenge is to CASE this card:

You can choose to use the colors, the theme, the sketch or whatever it is you see in this card that you want to copy. I chose the colors and sort of the layout:

You do have to use a Greeting Farm image to play along so go pick one up and play! I used Wild Sprout Dressy Ebony. You could win awesome images from Bugaboo and The Greeting Farm!

Stamptacular Challenge

Today I have the pleasure of playing along with the Stamptacular design team for their challenge. Today's challenge is being sponsored by Bugaboo so you can play along for the chance to win some fabulous new Bugaboo images.
The challenge at Stamptacular is to try something new. I know I tend to get in cardmaking ruts, using the same layouts, embellies, etc. so this challenge forced me to learn something new. I decided to try making a double z fold card using the Bugaboo Thanksgiving Bobblehead Scarecrow image:

Here's what the card looks like open:

I hope you'll join the Stamptacular team and try something new this week!

Card Cupids- use orange
