Are you ready for the first TCP Tuesday Challenge of 2013? I am.
This challenge is a supply challenge. I am challenging you to bring out your existing TCP stamps and dies and use them in a new and creative way. If there is a Birthday Set, change it out so it can be used as a Holiday set, and vice versa.
If there is a TCP stamp set or die that has been challenging you so much that you haven't used it, I'm challenging you to pull it out and use it!
If you've only used our stamps and dies for cards, we are challenging you to use them in a scrapbook page, on a home decor project, to decorate a gift. Whatever.
In this card I challenged myself to use our Heart Border die to create a rolled rose. I think they turned out pretty cute. And they were crazy easy to make. Check out the video to see just how easy.
Our dies, while they cut paper, can also cut fabric wood and acetate. The cut piece can be rolled or sewn or made into a three-dimensional project.
This challenge is to think outside of the box. I want you to use our stamps and dies in a way you might have not thought of before. Even if it's pulling out a stamp set that you've never used before. Get out your Cat's Pajamas gear and stamp!
And TCP Tuesday is now a month long challenge. Post your cards and projects on this blog to the right using the link to the right.
I hope you are inspired. Want to be more inspired?

I would take snow or rain. When the Waldo Canyon fire started, I could go down to the end of my driveway and see flames.

I know, we live in Roxborough. The fires have come so close to us here a time or 2! That is scaring me about this winter, no moisture! Glad we got a little today, but we could use a good dumping (even better if 2 days later we are back up to the 60s!)
Happy Monday peeps!! Anyone have some fun crafty time this weekend? We've got more Cat Packers sharing their TCP Tuesday creations tomorrow - share yours with us here!

I am SO EXCITED for tomorrow!!!! A NEW CHALLENGE!!!! WOOT!!!!!
Today, I am putting away stamps that I got mounted (in the process burned the heck outta myself with the hot knife)
I am down sizing and getting rid of stamps that are NOT seeing love and that will allow me to NOT be overwhelmed when trying to store! lol
Well, not a new challenge tomorrow KJ. Remember the new format means the challenge is for the whole month!
But we are spreading out the Cat Packers' projects, so you'll see all new projects tomorrow. You guys are going to be amazed at what some of them have to show you tomorrow- FUN stuff!!

Can't wait to see what the Cat Pack has been up to! I have an idea that I'm going to play around with tonight hopefully!
Everyone is doing such a great job with this challenge! Here is my scrapbook page. I used the Rolled Nest CutUp to make felt roses on my page, I also used my only uninked TCP set "Coolvetica."
