Sorry I'm getting this up late, but it's still Friday on the West Coast!!
I set out to make 2 cards, but I'm attaching just one link. The second card I just couldn't get to work with the right colors. Thanks again for these challenges. They really get me thinking in new ways.
This is my very first attempt at this challenge...I found I was wanting to reach for a blue, but alas no blue in ee...so it was definitely a challenge for me...I enjoyed it and will make at least one more later one...
Thanks to everyone who's played so far. All the cards have been great. I intended to make one today, but I spent ALL DAY working on cleaning up and organizing my stamp room. I'm exhausted!
Great challenge! I thought I'd have a go at a waterfall card; this is my 2nd one - for the first one I cheated a lot and used three eyelets and a piece of ribbon, so I don't know if I dare upload it!
2nd time round I worked out a way round the ribbon and eyelets, but fear I've still bent the rules. You said we could staples, right? Am I cheating by using red ones? :rolleyes:
Also I only had non SU cream - I know I should have just used another colour but I didn't - sorry!
Helen you're too funny!!! OK - let's just say we all have red staples lying around the house...or we could say you colored regular staples with a sharpie. LOL!

Well... I DO just happen to have red staples lying around... and green... and purple... and an awful lot of other craft stuff ;)!! Ok, I coloured it with a sharpie... but what's a sharpie?
Oh - do you not have Sharpies in the UK? They are permanent felt markers that color on anything - even metal. For years they were just black and I think mostly used for labeling stuff. Now they come in a bunch of cool colors. People use them for coloring tiles and staples and all kinds of stuff.

Never heard of them! Never seen them, but we probably have something similar - more than once I have denied all knowledge of a product, got my Canadian cousin to send me one and then found it in a local shop soon afterwards. :oops:
So let's just say I coloured the staples with Sharpies and not tell anyone about the pack of Making Memories coloured staples I just happened to find lying around ;)!
I'm hooked on challenges now - can't wait for the next one!

I finally got this challenge complete yesterday (Sunday) after stressing over it all weekend. I needed this challenge because I bought Bird Watcher because I'm an avid bird watcher but have never done anything with it. Here's what I came up with: Bird Watcher Card
