Default WT182 - Specialty Paper

Is anyone here in love with specialty paper as much as I? I just LOVE collecting the stuff. Of course...being a hoarder, I want to save it. It's not doing you or I any good sitting in storage! My challenge for you today is to pull it out and create with it! Now what do I mean by specialty patterned paper? Well...those super expensive papers in your scrapbook store is a good place to start. You know...the ones that are flocked, foiled, glittered, even die-cut! They are gorgeous and deserve to be used! Now if you truly don't have any of these papers, I still want you to play along! Pull out your glue pen and some glitter or flocking and create your own. Have fun with it!

Please remember to put WT182 in your keywords section and post a link back here. We all want to be inspired by your creativity! Also...please upload NEW designs to this challenge. After all...that's what challenges are all about! Inspiring you to create something new!

My sample: Deer Baby

Gallery WT182 Submissions

Thanks for playing along! Happy stamping!

Julia

Hey Julia great challenge! I wasn't planning to participate in the challenge today 'cause I've been trying to get caught up on scrapping my pictures from my trip to Europe in May...does it have to be a card? Or can I post a sb page if I use some really scrumptious paper?

I'm sorry for not commenting yesterday but I'm having a lot of trouble with my internel connection. They promised it would be fixed soon. So I will do my best to get all of my comments in today.

This was the first piece of specialty paper that I found that I have been hoarding, so I made myself cut a piece out of that beautiful 12 X 12 sheet! Thanks for the push!!!

Shore Do Love You

Julia, thanks for breaking down the hoarding wall! lol What fun!

I used some glittery cs by Nana's kids for my card and then added some dazzling diamonds. You can't have enough glitter, right?

Here is my Cup-A

I'm on an artichoke roll with another card this week using this awesome color. It matched the handmade paper I've had FOREVER. Take a peek at SPECIALTY BUTTERFLIES.
