Anyways, I'm making this challenge an easy one...this week try to find ways to use Printed Paper in your work. You can make anything you wish and use the SU designer series paper or just plain any printed or scrapbooking papers you have on hand. These papers can add a fun, quick and easy way to jazz up your work. Have fun and don't forget to put WT39 in your keywords section when you upload and post a link back to this thread. As always, there are no time limits and feel free to add some tips or techniques in this thread as well.
Ok, so I've got finals in half an hour and I only got 4 1/2 hours sleep, so I may come home and crash instead of making a new card....until then, these are some of mine: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Okay, I technically did this before you issued the challenge--but after midnight, so it was Thursday! It's my current mission in life to use up my patterned paper stash. It's embarassing how much I have. I won't share just how many Stacks I've purchased in the past year... sigh...
I made my Mom a prayer journal. Not sure what I think, but oh, well. I already have them posted on my website, so I'll just link to them.

The back cover and inside is also covered with black cardstock, and a strip of the black and white floral paper. You can't see it, but a charm is on the end of matching ribbon that is strung through the book to act as a placeholder. I also handwrote various verses about prayer and prayer quotes throughout the book.
Yes, Anna's gallery is awesome!! Wish I had one like that!! I have some "catching up" to do, so I will be back later with ALL the posts that I'm going to have!! I also have TONS of paper to use up as well!! So I'll see what I can come up with! THANKS!!

Haven't tried a Way to Use it challenge...this sure was a fun one. I had to make a baby card anyways. Image is still pending. Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
This is a wonderful challenge because I have TONS and TONS of printed / patterned paper and can't stop buying them! Hope to come up with an idea soon! I'll keep track of this thread. Thanks!

I must totally be psychic (although some people would beg to differ and say I am psycho...5 kids who are 8 years old and younger and still wanting one more)...
I digress...I must be psychic because I was plugging away all morning getting these things done and voila - here is my WT39! ALL DONE! THANKS JULIA! We are on the same wavelength!

Here is my first card for this challenge...first card in a week actually. Still no Christmas tree up but I did manage to get some shopping, wrapping and my cards mailed out.
Oh my gosh! I feel like I've just had 15 minutes of fame! You guys are AWESOME!! Thanks for making my day totally worth writing home about!
So... I saw the first post about the challenge, and thought that since I've been dabbling with paper already, I would go WAY to the bottom of 'one' stack, and see what I could come up with.
Okay I got another one done and this is perfect timing for this challenge since I had decided it was time to use up some of this paper before my SIL hands me over some more for Christmas, I just know she will! She hasn't learned the real definition of ENOUGH yet! Man some of this stuff is so ugly I wish I had a cat so I could line its litter box with it, I�m serious too! Maybe it was a dollar store clearance!
Sometimes there are paper designs I don't think I'll use included in the 12x12 "Stacks" I get on sale at Joanns, so I donate those papers to a local non-profit education organization that provides classes for youth earning their GED. Specifically, I give to the Teen Parent branch of the organization.
