Woodware USA Challenge #29 - Use a Forgotten Embellishment

Ok, we all have them! The embellishments that continued to be pushed further back into the craft closet or drawer, just waiting to be used again. Or, maybe you have a type of embellishment that you have never used before. It's too intimidating or you are just hoarding it because you love it so much. Now is the time to blow the dust off and let those embellishments see the light of day. The day has arrived!

Our challenge this week is to use a forgotten embellishment on your card, so that you can feel a little less guilty about hoarding or forgetting it in the first place. Some simple rules to follow:

1. Link your original creation using the Inlinkz system. Any backdated entries will be removed.
2. Only two entries per participant per week.
3. Get one entry per creation for our monthly drawing. Use a Woodware USA stamp, and you will receive an extra entry.
4. BONUS: If you would like to be considered for a guest designer spot, please put an asterisk next to your name.
