FOUR for Friday!


 Happy Friday Stampers!  

Last week I did not put out a weekend challenge and I received quite a few comments from readers wondering why. 

I know my girls have received FREE VIP tutorials, along with the Friday tutorials I post each week,  as well as earned FREE tutorial bundles, so they have lots to keep them stamping if I happen to miss one...however, I did not take into consideration readers who are not my customers, and for that, I apologize.  

I guess that readers not sharing their cards, does not mean that they are not using my challenges.  

So, to make up for missing last week, I have FOUR challenges for you this weekend.  

I encourage you to please share your creations with me, so I can post them to inspire others. 

CHALLENGE ONE:  COLOR CHALLENGE:


CHALLENGE TWO: CREATIVE PROMPT:


CHALLENGE THREE:  SKETCH CHALLENGE: SQUARE CARD



CHALLENGE FOUR:  USE ONE OF THE FREE TUTORIALS THAT I POST ON MY BLOG ON FRIDAYS, OR ONE THAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED FROM ME IN THE PAST MONTH, CHANGE UP THE PAPERS, COLORS, STAMPS ETC AND MAKE IT YOUR OWN , AND THEN  SHARE YOUR CARD TO INSPIRE OTHERS. 

HAVE FUN AND HAPPY STAMPING!
