Stash Party #15 - Day 2 - Use One Stamp Five Ways- A Five Day Challenge

Hello, Crafty Peeps!

This is day two of the progressive five-day challenge between me and my crafting buddy.  Each day we must make changes that elevate the design.  We are confined to using stash items only. 

Card #2

Have Faith In What Will Be

My progression for today's card was to add a textured colored card layer.  I also added sequins, changed the washi tape (both are black but have different designs) and I used a different flower and I changed the location of the flower.  I really love the simplicity of this card.  The design allows the sentiment to shine.

Thanks for stopping by!

Stash Party # 14 - Day One - Use One Stamp in Five Ways - A Five Day Challenge

Hello, Crafty Peeps!

My crafting buddy was so impressed with the results of our 5-minute card challenge she decided we should do another one on one stash reduction challenge.  This time her devious mind came up with the idea of using one stamp to create at least five cards.  (1)Each card has to be different and we have to post at least one card a day over five days.  And, because she likes to torture me, she said we had to (2) use a stamp that was already on our work table.  If there was no stamp on the work table, we had to use the first stamp we touched.  I decided I would get some of my own back this time so I added the stipulation that (3) The card designs must be progressive.

2020 In A Nutshell

I have had this Unity Itty Bitty stamp in my stash since 2010.  Last night was the first time I ever used it.  I guess the idiom "all things in their time" is true.

Card #1

Have Faith In What Will Be

I decided to create a CAS card for my first project in this challenge.  Block stamps are pretty static and I was concerned about my ability to find creative ways to use this puppy.  When I added the "progression" element to the challenge, it never crossed my mind that I would be using a block stamp.  But, this stamp was on my mixed media work table and I remembered too late that it was there.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
