Challenge 46 | Critter Time

Critters!  We like them - I bet you do too!  Just make a card with a critter and some old stamps and you are golden!!  The definition of critters spurred quite the debate amongst the design team as to what a “critter” was. Ultimately we all agreed on any animal or bird. Which is basically anything non-human – right?

So be sure to give it a try and join us!!

We have made a change to our challenge rules – you have always had to use a stamp older than a year but now you must include the age (or approximate age) of the stamp in your blog post. After all – we want to give these old stamps some love!

 

Are you on Facebook?  If you share our challenge on your Facebook page, we will happily share your post!

To be considered for a Top Pick and to receive comments - be sure to link your card below!

 

Be sure to play along with us! This challenge ends September 9, 2016.
