LSC68 - Office Originals
This week, we are limited on the embellishments we can use to those we find in the office. Examples would be staples, standard paper clips, garage sale tags, label stickers, file cards, etc.
Please put LSC68 in the keyword box when uploading!
Limit: embellishments
Stamps: any
cardstock and ink: any
embellishments: office supplies
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!
If you need help with uploading your card to the gallery or posting a link, click here!

Sorry... I didn't have time to add samples this week.

Oh, I wish I could play, I have lots of office supplies, but we're off to the beach and won't be back until next Thursday. I have a computer there, so I'll sneak on to see what everyone's doing. Great challenge Jen!

Going yard sailing this morning - I'll try to play when I get back (maybe I'll find some supplies at the yard sales and be inspired!).
This sounds fun!

Yeah! I got mine done before leaving for work today! (helped in part by the fact that I actually colored this doggie with my new Prismacolor pencils a few weeks ago when I first trying them out!) I love using these binder clips on cards. Thanks for a fun challenge Jen, and more hugs and prayers to you for better health for your family!!!

I think all I've got is staples, so I guess I figure a way for using those. I did use them on my vbs treats I did yesterday, but they were cello toppers so that kinda doesn't count!

OH wait it has two kinds of ep- Is embossing powder an embellishment?

Oh man, I want to play! We are going out of town this afternoon and won't be back until Monday night. :(
Maybe if I hurry and get everything packed I will have time to work on this.

I don't often get out the stapler so I had fun with this one. I figured hodgepodge was "officey" enough, too. I also turned my card into a file folder. I've always liked the look of "officey" cards but haven't ever ventured there - thanks Jen!

I made a bookmark a little bit ago and have this one left over so I had a sample ready to go!!
The bookmark has the ribbon & fibers attached with a staple.

Dawn, I saw your card and added it to my favorites. Loved the colors and the design. I noticed that you used baby oil with the prismacolor pencils. Does that work better than gamsol or mineral spirits?
Just wondering. The effect is really nice.

Well, I emptied the supplies cupboard -- just kidding! But I did use a lot of office supplies -- staples, paper clip, rubber band, metal rimmed tags, and the Wall Street Journal. Here's my best office supplies.

From an earlier 'conversation' with Dawn, yes, she just substituted the baby oil in place of gamsol. Probably a whole lot cheaper & easier to obtain.

I have seen some really cards using labels, so I thought I'd try it myself. I also used that wonderful tool SAMJ to line up the diamonds, as best as I could.

Turned out a little on the gaudy side!! I wrapped a rubber band around my brayer and inked it from a spectrum pad to create the background.

OK - Here's my card. I loved the colors but really struggled with this one. I think I had an idea in my head and just couldn't get it onto the paper. Don't 'cha hate it when that happens??
