WT347 - Extra! Extra! Read All About It!
It's Thursday again and time to Use It!!
If you haven't guessed by now folks, we are using newspaper or newsprint today as our subject. Use a lot or little, it doesn't matter to me. Use the front page, sports section, comics or classified. Let's get that black and white print on our cards.
Here is my sample for today's challenge.
Remember to use the keyword, WT347, when uploading your card so we can all see your card. You can view the entire gallery for this challenge HERE.
Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!
1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You�re done!
Hannah is helping me out today and her sample is attached below. Thanks Hannah!

OOPS!! I NOW read your instructions carefully and see that it is to be black and white from the newspaper. I won't be in such a hurry next time. : ( I used a colored photo from yesterday's front page. Today is a busy day for me, so this card is it...no time to make a correct one.

Oh Sallie, don't worry about using a colored photo. I used black and white in my write up of the challenge as a tie in to newspapers and the old joke, "What is black and white and red (read) all over?" |

Here's my feeble attempt at today's ways to use it challenge:
WT347 Bold and Basic Newsprint Greetings by muzbysmom - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
I used a city resources catalog since we don't take the newspaper. I chose pacific point for the card base since the titles of the articles were a bright blue. I punched out the butterflies and they are mounted on pacific point punched butterflies with pop dots. __________________

Here is my card for today"s challenge. The newsprint idea was fun. I started out with some lacey spellbinders but didn't go any where with that. I like this image on the newsprint but not that crazy about the rest of the card! Oh well maybe next time! Enjoy your day and thanks for the fun challenge!

I am so glad you came up with the challenge Toni. I saw some cards using newsprint a few weeks ago (I think it was on the Hero Arts website), really liked the look and meant to try it, but kind of forgot. So you gave me a second chance. Here are my gingerbread newsboys. |

WT347 On a Journey
For this challenge-which I really like!!- I found a newspaper flyer and then a scrap of DP newsprint that I distressed with chocolate chip ink that describes a journey. I added Kaiser's secret bird society paper, some stamped Pattern paper, ribbons, and a DC flower from my stash. Enjoy your journey today

What a a great challenge. I love newsprint paper. Mine is a bit hidden since it's the first layer on the card base.

I managed to fit a bit of newsprint into this card I've been picking away at all week. I'd love to use it more when I have a bit more time; there's so much you can do with it. TFL!
