Default WT165 - When the Chips are Down

Well today's title is pretty corny but hey! It's been a long week! Some of you may know that my dad has just been released from the hospital after a fall last Thursday. I'm glad to say he's doing much better and I'm madly trying to get caught up!

Today's challenge is to get some chipboard down on your projects. I know we've done this challenge before but it's always a good one! I love chipboard! Today's challenge was requested by happy2stamp4ever who is looking for chipboard project ideas this month. I can't wait to see what you all do. Glitter it, stamp it, paint it, cover it with patterned paper...just have fun with it!

Please remember to put WT165 in your keywords section and post a link back here so that we don't miss your design!

WT165 Gallery Submissions

My Sample - Two Sparrows

Have fun with the challenge!

I usually don't use chipboard so this really is a challenge for me!

I think I have become a challenges stalker as I was waiting and checking for todays challenge since my feet hit the floor about 3 hours ago.

Glad your dad is home, hope is up and around in no time!

I can't believe I actually got this one finished before I headed off to school today! I already had planned on using some chipboard so this gave me the final push! Thanks so much Julia! Here's my card.

Thanks for the challenge; seems like I haven't used my chipboard in a very long time. Hope to play tonight!

Oh, fun. I love using chipboard, although I mainly use from cereal boxes or other throwaway freebies. If I want it thicker, I just glue a couple of layers together. Thanks, Julia. Glad to hear your dad is doing well.

Glad your father is doing better, Julia.

Guess I'm sitting this one out, I don't think I have any chipboard -runs and hides- Oh wait, Melody has a good idea...and the Japanese won't let us recycle things like cereal boxes for some odd reason, so I ought to have one or two of those around!

This was my very first card using chipboard. I've had this Lots of Letters set for forever but couldn't find an idea I liked. This card turned out cute enough, but I want to make something gorgeous like Julia's! Your card rocks!

Great challenge, Julia. I don't use my chipboard as often as I could - this will inspire me to get with it! Thanks!

I love chipboard!! I hope to be checking out all the creations and playing along today. The site seems to be a little wonky and slow for me today...so I'll have to check others out later. Glad to hear your dad is doing better Julia!

Here is a collage I did a while ago. The DP that I used had a section that said "Family" really big across it, but I had already used that part and didn't have another sheet. So...I had to improvise! I used my chipboard for the letter "F" and stamped out the rest of the letter! (actually I think it was a sticker). I will get busy and create something new too!
