Weekly Technique Challenge....would you be interested?
I have really enjoyed AndreaSophie's weekly Sketch Challenges and would like to propose a weekly Technique Challenge.
By technique challenge, I mean I would would post a technique or SU! product and the challenge would be to make a card or project using that technique or product. I'm thinking things like polished stone, "kissing", shattered glass using UTEE, emboss resist, crayon resist....there are hundreds of techniques out there.
Are you interested in something like this?

I think it would be a great idea. I was just thinking about starting some of the challenges.
It would be nice though if there was a seperate area for the challenges. I tend to lose the posts sometimes

sounds great to me, I tend to do the same old, same old. With the challenges, I push myself to try new things.

Sounds fun. If you do it, I'd recommend posting instructions for the techniques as we may have some beginning stampers on here.

So is anyone else interested?

Weekly Technique Challenge....would you be interested?
I would LOVE to be a part of this if some kind soul would take pity on me and explain how to upload (download? sideload?) my cards!!! :oops: I just bought a new computer and a printer/scanner/copier and have absolutely no idea how to do anything. I am very technologically challenged and my DS is away at school. (DH is no help - he doesn't know anything about computers and doesn't care to learn.)
Any takers?
Thanks!

Yeah, I haven't seen AndreaSophie yet. I think she goes to work and didn't start one this morning. Maybe tonight she will post one.

Yippee!
I like that you are going to spread it out a bit from the other challenge.... I'm posting the scrapbook ones on Saturdays, and hers are Wednesdays, so posting this on another day is way cool
