Hello Woodware USA fans!! We are back with another fabulous challenge this week, and I hope that it will inspire you to get going on those holiday cards!! Our theme this week is Christmas/holiday/winter-themed cards. Whatever your heart's desire when it comes to that frigid time of year -- we want to see them all!

Some simple rules for you to follow:

1. Only new creations (not backdated ones) will be considered for this challenge.
2. Only 2 entries per participant per week.
3. You will receive one entry per card for our monthly drawing. Use a Woodware USA image, and you will receive a bonus entry.

A Stitch in Time...

Our challenge this week at Woodware USA is to use Faux Stitching on our cards…a sometimes forgotten technique that really adds some fun dimension to your work. I just love this adorable set from Woodware called A Winter’s Day. It is so wonderfully drawn and easy to color. You know that I seem to measure the worthiness of a stamp by its colorability! (I know, it’s not a word…still!)

Don’t forget that you still have time to receive two free ink pads from Woodware USA with any order!! It’s a seriously great deal!!

The paper that I used today is from Jovial by Basic Grey, and I used Chocolate Chip and Really Rust from Stampin’ Up. The ribbon is also Stampin’ Up, and I have my lovely triple bow courtesy of the Bow Easy!!

Thanks for stopping by today…stop back the rest of the week for more inspiration from the design team!!

Buttons, FREE ink pads, and 28 new sets!!

Welcome to another week at Woodware USA! Our design team has some fabulous challenge cards for you this week!! We have used buttons on all of our creations. I always love to see the different things that the design team comes up with, and this week is no exception. Please check back every day to see a new creation made with Woodware USA stamps.

Some awesome news from Woodware USA—

Free inky links stamp pads with purchase...not one but TWO!!

AND...

28 new stamp sets are in the store…you have to check them out! There are some awesome new sets just in time for the holidays!!

My card today uses a beautiful set by Woodware USA called A Winter’s Day. It is so beautiful, and it was really fun to color. I think I must base everything now on whether an image is colorable (I know it’s not a word, but it truly conveys what I want to say!).

I have also used some yummy new paper from Basic Grey called Jovial, and I paired it with Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla by Stampin’ Up. I colored the image with Copics, and I used Stickles to accent. The final touch is three buttons and a big luscious bow made with the Bow Easy.

Thanks for stopping by today…stay tuned tomorrow for another design team creation!
