TLC350 ~ No Stamping Allowed ~ (11/07/11)

[joan ervin]

Hello everyone!! Are you ready to start your week with a fun challenge?? As I was stamping away this week, a silly thought popped into my head....what would happen if all my/your stamps disappeared....GASP!!! What would we do??? Well....let's find out!! Sooo, the challenge today is to create a card or project without stamps or digies! Here are a few suggestions:

1. Use patterned paper images: cut them out or use diecuts, punches, etc.
2. Use stickers, rub-ons, pictures, or chipboard
3. Use fabric pieces, flowers, tickets, food labels, or antique post cards
4. Use pictures from newspapers, magazines, or catalogs
5. Use ribbons, puzzle pieces, or photos
6. Make hand written sentiments or use letter stickers, letter buttons, stencils, labeling machine, cut out words from a newspaper or magazine.
7. The sky is the limit...have fun!!!

Here is my sample card:

Come One, Come All

Thanks for bringing us this awesome challenge! Yesterday, I looked at my BIG container full of beautiful 3-D stickers and rub-ons and thought to myself 'I've got to go through these (again) and figure out ways to use some of them.' Coincidentally, today, the very next day, you bring us the NO STAMPING ALLOWED challenge! How cool is that? Everybody have FUN and I'll see you in the gallery!

Fun challenge Joan. I always feel like I must stamp on a card, so it feels like cheating when I don't. Here's my card. TLC350, CAS143 Look mom, no stamps by stampingwriter - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

For today's Try A New Technique Challenge- No Stamping- I was given this jungle fabric from my friend's family quilting project today, what great timing! I added a lime green attendance slip, and a paper bag- all decorated with some ribbon from my friends. The grass is from a recycled herb set. Enjoy your day
