I think mine is probably the sketch! I always look at the others but don't always participate. I always do the color challenge, but that's kind of a "duh" thing since I host it ;)
The Sketch Challenge Technique Challenge Color Challenge
Combining the CC with other challenges seems to work well for me...Although, I am not a totally dedicated challenge participant...I try to be. I did vote for the SC!

I look at all of the challenges. Actually, I'm one of the challenge stalkers. (Maybe I should post more to prove it). But I desperately need to break out of my color closet that I live in and explore.
so for now, my vote is color challenge, but that's not to say that I don't like the others. Cuz I do.
I love the sketch challenge and the color challenge. I think mostly because I have the supplies for those (usually) and they are generally cards that can be done quick
Generally I look to the sketch challenges when I have a stamping block - but I love the color challenges, because when I do get to participate in a challenge they are the fastest to complete.
All the challenges are awesome and I hope some day (slowly) to go back and participate in as many as I can. If I can ever get way from that thing they call a job - it's always getting in the way of my stamping!
Thank you to the ladies who keep us going with the challenges each week, your hard work is appreciated!
That's a hard question. Depends alot on what's going on each week. What days I have to work etc. The techniques scare me a little bit. SCS's challenges really help me as a stamper try things I might not otherwise try. I did vote for sketch because layouts are a challenge for me.

Definitely the sketch challenge for me. I love being challenged to CASE a layout since layouts are my biggest personal stamping challenge.
I have certain colors that I like more than others so I am trying to branch out and do the color challenge when I can. I am in the Christmas Card Challenge too, but it is only monthly.
I voted ways to use it because it makes me REALLY think. But I really LOVE all of them. I used to do all of them but since I joine too many swaps and have been a busy bee with other things here I just haven;t has the chance. :(
I plan to get back on board when I finish the swaps I have.
THANK YOU to all who host the challenges, they are GREAT!!!!
I like most all the challenges, but the ones I'm most likely to do are the technique, color and inspiration challenges. I usually check on them all, but I don't always have the time or the right supplies to do them all.

I LOVE them all but I do the color challenge most consistently. I like the technique because it really makes me step out of my box the most but I don't always get them done
Sketch is the one I get done 2nd most(does that even make sense?LOL)
Limited Supplies just goes to show me I don't need all the crap I have so that is a little disappointing but I still like it!
So here is just a bunch of my babble, hope this helps the poll!
I voted for the technique challenge. There are so many techniques that people use & you want to know how to, but don't have instructions. This challenge gives the directions as well as a sample or two. It's fun to try new things. I don't always like the technique and some I would not do a second time, but I find others that are something I use over and over. I try to participate in most of the weekly card challenges. Occasionally, I am too busy to get to it right away, but will try to do it later, even if later is a week or more later.
I love getting all the new ideas. It helps to keep me from getting in a rut and my cards from all looking the same.
I also try to go back & do some of the earlier challenges that I missed, since I haven't been on this site very long.
I chose the sketch because layout is something I sometimes struggle with.
I love the technique, color, limited supply, and WT. I have never tried the others!
I voted for Sketch. But as I have been participating in more challneges lately, I'm finding that each challenge has it's merits! Though I typically only get in on the Monday through Friday challenges. I'm so glad I stopped "lurking" in the challenge forums and now I am becoming more of the "stalking" type!
lol... following Dawn.... I voted for the sketch... and the color combo would be my second choice. mostly do the mon-thurs challenges...........funfunfun;)

My favorite is the technique challenge. I love to find new and unique things to do with stamping. The sketch challenge takes a close second though. I don't know how many times it has helped me get through a brain vacation. We are on spring break this week so maybe I will get to try some of the other challenges. Thanks to all who post the challenges.
The christmas card challenge is the only one I do. The only challenge I do every week is the scrapbook challenge and that's not on the list. I should do more card challenges though. My cards could really use some work.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are my favorites!! I try not to miss those.
I really like the other challenges, but by the end of the week the laundry is pretty backed up, the cupboards are bare, and my house is full of dust bunnies...so I have very little time to stamp.

I've done mostly color challenges in the past but came on tonight to look for a sketch or technique one that does not intimidate me too much.
I am bored with my style and think those will help bring some much needed sassiness to my cards.
I really like your pole..
I love the color challenge.. put running a very close first is the sketch, but I do lurk in all of the others. Someday when I don't have to work anymore, I will do more of them...
Thank you, ladies for the wonderful job that all of you do...if it wasn't for all of you, I would be like a fish out of water.....

I like them all. I voted for the Limited Supply because it makes me think outside the box. I like technique challenge because I like trying new stuff and usually could figure out how to do stuff, but don't ever sit down and actually DO it. TLC helps me make time.
I'm also loving the Inspiration Challenge. It fits the way I think.
I voted for the technique challenge, but like most others, I have way more favorites! I love the 'limited supply' and 'ways to use it'. These are the ones that challenge me the most. But I really should do the sketch challenge b/c I've been pretty 'layout challenged' lately!
I've never done the inspiration challenge-it sounds fun. I'm off to check it out now!
Thanks to all of you girls that come up with these challenges! I look forward to checking them out every morning!
WELL!....how come no one told me this thread was here?!! I voted for the sketch challenge because that was the first one I tried and try never to miss. It seems to be where I've also improved the most since starting the challenges. I do love them all those and try to miss as few as possible each week. I also love combining them as most of you know...sometimes you get a really unique card that you never would have come up with on your own. Thanks ladies for all that you do to inspire us! And thanks to all who participate and inspire us with all your creative ideas!
