However, I love shaking it up a bit and having a shaped card along the way!

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.

2. A direct link to your creation using the InLinkz.com system.
3. A maximum of 2 entries per week per participant.

Anything Goes~ Tag!

Hello Everyone!!!

This week's challenge is "ANYTHING GOES"...super easy one!!!

So here is something little different from me...a tag.
A beautiful tag makes any gift extra special...

Sorry for the poor photography...taking photo of tag/bookmark and glittered project is a real challenge for me.

Now What do you all think about fabulous New set????

It is BIRD SONG.. one of the many new stamps now available in WW store.

This set can be used for birthday,miss you, thank you,christmas, scrapbooking...and many more projects. You just don't have to use the birds and cage always...the set comes with a lovely tree branch and different size of flowers..very soon I'll make card with these images.

Its one of my new favorites...loooove the birdcage..it very hot amongst the crafting trends.

I just didn't make tagfront ...I also managed to finish the back of it...

I used Mixed Greetings stamp set for back.

I also used the flower from the Birdsong set to create my own background .

We're going to stir things up bit...from next week onwards WOODWAREUSA weekly challenge will posted on Mondays...you will get to see all the fabulous DT samples at a glance.
Make sure to join us for NEW stamp set Blog Hop on Monday , Nov 8th...
Did I mention there will be prizes!!!
So mark your calender.

Thanks for stopping by...
Hugs~
