Good Afternoon - I hope that you have enjoyed another weekend. 

Fab Five

I am so happy to share with you the Fab Five from our last challenge.  Using the Crimper proved to be amazing - you guys all rocked the challenge.  Thank you!!

 

Before I do that, I need to announce that one of our participants link did not work.  It linked back to the challenge website and sadly no one was able to comment on their post.  Please check your links when you are posting so we can leave you all some love!! 

 

 

So now, the Fab Five, in no particular order.

Challenge 5 | Retro Tool - Crimpin'

Time to move on to a new challenge for a new year!!

 

The goal when Jane and Katie created this blog was to get more mileage out of your older stamps. We wanted them so badly and then they begin to collect dust. 

But what about your tools?  Your embellishments?  Your old supplies?  If they are also collecting dust, please pull them out and use them up!!   Our new challenges for the year will ask you to pull them out and use them up!! 

Please remember, that regardless of the challenge, we ask that you always use older stamps.  We prefer older than one year. 

RRBC05

Our first challenge is a tool challenge - break out that old crimper!!  Along with Retro Rubber, use your Crimper to create a project for this challenge.  *Please note that we will accept projects using a scoring tool to create a crimped effect as seen on Claire's card today. 

First, I want to share a project from our Guest - Claudia!!  She was our winner from Challenge 3!
