My daughter's wedding was two weeks ago. To be honest, I have had SO much cleaning up to do since then ... and I have done NONE of it!! The wedding pretty much WIPED ME OUT!
With that said, I went to go make a card for today's challenge and was met with a pile of stuff and a BIG FAT MESS!! So, instead of cleaning up the mess, I just decided to use some of the things that were ALREADY out!! Hence, the card for today's challenge (which was made with things I used to make favors for the wedding reception ... I did change up the colors, though!)
So ... the challenge today is to create something and use NO stamps (if you can!!)!! I have so much ribbon, so many die cuts, TONS of embellishments, embossing folders and the like .. I am SURE most of you do as well!!! Show me what you can do!!

Oh I love this challenge and wish I had more time to play this morning - I did get a card made but had to cheat a bit because of time - now it's off to work ! I will be back to comment on the gallery later . . . .
I am posting this here and on today's MIX. . Can you do a card with out ink, stamps, dies or embossing but at least 2 media and 2 layers? I do many of my cards with out these. Will have some up late tomorrow. Today's Zoo volunteer day!
Wendy, this was definitely a challenge. Here's my card.

Oh my goodness, you were reading my mind Wendy! I, too, have had way too much on my plate and zero time in my craft room. I was stumbling along making a thank you card for a DF when I spotted this challenge....I was able to finish the card, thanks to your suggestion, by ditching the sentiment stamp and instead using a diecut, custom watercolored sentiment to finish the card! So happy I did! Here it is: F4A379 Days of Spring - thanks! by Boss - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks for the inspiration! I now have a card to send to my friend, to thank her for gifting me this cute spring scene die.
