Cardmakers - do you fancy a challenge?

[AuntyQuated]

All you have to do is make a card, then post the materials that you used to make the card to the next person and see what they come up with. We will then post up the results to see what different cards we made.

If you use a stamped mage then you would have to send your stamoed image too, but if you used some special paper to cut out a number 8 for instance you wouldn't send the cut-out, just the paper of the same size you used.

Anyway if you would like to join then please email me your address and on the 11th/12th February I will email you the address of the person that you are to send your goodies to. All goodies must be received by the end of February. Then we can post the results mid-March.

shout up if you have any questions.

have sent my bits and pieces today.....gawd only knows what your gonna do with them!!!!!!!!!!

Havent had my bits yet!!!!

I felt quite embarrassed sending mine! They weren't very imaginative and I think whoever gets them will be limited with what they do! Will we end up with nearly identical cards.
Will be fun to see!

Hows things Dingle....not seen you much over in SN lately....you OK????

I'm sending mine today, between snow and grumpy child, just got round to it. I can only apologise in how much I'm lacking in inspiration.

Things are as hectic as ever JaysMum! At least my mum is out of hospital now, even if she is still travelling up for dialysis 3 times a week!
In between colds, decorating, and the general fight for anything and everthing for dd, we are getting by!I go onto the SN board for a quick look when I get the chance, but I really need to concentrate on something for ME ATM. So I am trying to throw myself back into my card making!
This challenge has helped a lot! Once I got my bits and bobs in the post, I knew I HAD to get making so I could return the favour! Now the bug has bitten again!I need a kick up the backside every now and then!

still no bits for me.....J my little one has been rushing to the postbox the past couple of days to see if my "bobs" have arrived...........is anyone sending me anything???????????

i will contact the 'someone' now.

i haven't receeived anyhting yet either and am expecting 2 lots as i am receieb=ving Champs's for her.

I have sent mine off

I haven't got anyhting yet

update

my goodies ahve arrived!!!
champs' have too and have now posted them on to her

I sent my bits out yesterday (first class) so hopefully they will arrive in the next day or so. I haven't received anything yet - I am not at work next week so hopefully I will have plenty of time to be creative!

Mine arrived this am........now I have got to get started.....this is fun.

oh, good jaysmum; i have to admit to finding my package a 'challenge'! Whose idea was this?????

Well mine has really got me stumped.......there was PINK for a start!!!!!!!! I dont do PINK......my mate who works with me was peeing herself when I showed her my PINK bit....she knows that anything thats remotely PINK and PRETTY or that has RIBBON gets put at the bottom of my list of "to do later"!!!!!

Really loved the card and other bits though.....have got to sit and get my thinking cap on......

When have the cards got to be finished by?????

hmm, not sure when they ought to be finished but i'm sure i did say so somewhere

will check the emails

So you did.....me not paying attention again!!!!!!

Champs, have you recieved your bits and pieces yet???
Let me know and I will try to put a couple of pics of the unmade items in the gallery thingy!!

dingle i am a complete rubishy person!! they have arrived but i haven't had a chance to open. ds2 has just fallen asleep so i am going right now to open and make card. I will also get my pack ready so sorry to all of you. right off now... will report back.

right made it and just in time as ds woke up!! not best pleased with it as i made a complete mess of the mulbury paper and had to throw it away i am so sorry dingle.

Champs, I am sure you haven't made a complete mess, but if you would like I can forward another piece!

dingle a mess is to nice a wors was trying to get a fluffy edge. I have made the card without it and am afraid it looks a little bare, aw well!!

hello...
this is why i haven't started yet as i'm not really sure what to do with my bits; what if i spoil them...have you seen the phots - Dingle you could put yours up now.

I am more than happy to re-send them champs if you would like me to! Just let me know.

It that a yes them champs? CAT me if you want it sent straight to you or I will post it off to AQ again with an extra stamp to cover AQ's postage.

Have laoded a pic in the bits sent folded, sorry AQ, I had problems with one and have emailed it to you!
