TL136 - Think Fast!
This challenge is going to be just that: a real challenge!
I'll give you the story, and then the challenge.....
I was at a shoebox swap this weekend. A shoebox swap is where everyone brings a sample card and all the supplies needed (precut cardstock, ink, stamps, embellishments and tools) for the other gals to make it. You come home with a bunch of different cards and have fun visiting with the other gals.
Somehow.....I forgot to bring my stamp set!!!
Fortunately the hostess has a well stocked stampin' space, and she graciously allowed me to look for a substitute stamp set. Thank you Theresa! Since my cardstock was already cut, I had to find something that would "fit" in the spaces and work with the color scheme I had too. Talk about a challenge!!!
Here are the two cards:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...83834?cat=8590
And you know what? I actually like the second card better!
So....the challenge for today is to take a card that is already in your gallery, and redo it by only switching the stamp set! You can trim the layers a tiny bit if needed, but everything else should be the same!
Use the keyword TLC136, and add a link to both cards here in this thread. You can add a link to your first card in the description aread when you upload your new card.
You can do this! Have fun!

Question Beth.. does the sentiment have to remain the same, too?

This is a GREAT one! It could be the chance we need to RE-do something we just weren't happy with...sometimes changing the set is all a card needs! Can't wait to do this later!
Thanks Beth!

What a great idea! Thanks for a fun challenge. First I have to finish cleaning and play with my from surgery recovering son for a bit! But I will do this challenge. I need to get back in the swing of things.
Hugs and smiles

Fantastic idea, and a perfect way to get us to jump-start our creativity on a Monday!
I think the coolest thing about this challenge is that we probably all have those cards we've made where we've stepped back and said, "I could have done this better, if only I'd..." This challenge gives us a chance to re-visit one of those cards!
