It's Friday and time for another LIMITED SUPPLY CHALLENGE!! Remember what it was like before you had a whole room full of stamping supplies? Let's see what everyone can come up with from this list. Remember that you can use any combination of things on this list, but you cannot use anything not listed below. When you upload your card to the gallery please put LSC11 in the keyword section and post a link to this thread so we can all go look. This week's challenge is designed so that everyone should be able to play. It's all about FAVORITES! When you post back to this thread please tell us why you chose the stamp set you did. Everyone is welcome to play - even if you've never done a challenge before...please join us!!!

Itty Bitty Backgrounds
PLUS Choose 1 All-time Favorite SU Stamp Set (current or retired) that you haven't used in at least the last month (YEP - only ONE!!!)
Cardstock: US White, Glossy White, PLUS Choose your FAVORITE color group (BB, EE, RR, SS???) and from that group choose up to 3 colors of CS.
Ink: Black PLUS you may use the same colors of ink as the 3 CS colors you chose above AND you may add 2 more colors of ink FROM THE SAME COLOR GROUP. (That's a total of 5 ink colors plus Basic Black - these could be spots or full sized pads and they could be EITHER classic or craft)
Accessories: Mono, Double stick tape, 2-way glue, DD Glitter, AND CHOOSE ONE FAVORITE FROM THE FOLLOWING - eyelets (plus tools to set), buttons, brads (plus punch), hemp, grograin ribbon AND CHOOSE EITHER blender pens or Aquapainter OR other watercolor brush, PLUS Any regular household item such as bleach, staples, waxpaper, etc.
If you can't upload to the gallery you can still play at home. You don't need everything on the list to play. Just use what you have. When you post back to this thread please be sure to let us know your specific stamp choices from the list above.
Here are my two for Changing Seasons. I chose this set because it can be used for either a man or woman depending on the colors. The techniques used can be a simple or complicated as you desire. I've seen this set where the birds in each image were spotlighted, and I've used it myself just stamped on vellum and mounted on colored paper. I think Earth Elements is the choice with so much wood, trees, and birds. I did cheat and used creamy caramel ink without using the paper.
is it too late to start playing? I think I can get something together by Friday. I liked Wednesday's and Thursday's but I think that deadline might push me.
Would love to play!

okay, I know this is last weeks, but I wanted to play anyway! This was HARD! I cheated and used US Vanilla instead of white, I thought it looked better... other than that, I stuck with the rules!
