Last week people uploaded 426 projects to the challenge for a total of 40,328! The show has been going since 2020 after Covid hit but I just started participating earlier this year. This week host Mary Gunn FUNN had Irene Smith (@ArtemisMade1) as her guest. The wheel wasn't too hard on us.
- Project - Card with Squares: I made a 5" square card with a square patterned layer, plus an inchie.
- Colors - Bee Garden: According to scientists, bees love purple, violet & blue.
- Element - Monday: I stamped a little tab with the word Monday.
- Random - Use a Marker(s): No brainer, I used Copics :)
What to do with Monday? I googled Monday quotes because people in the chat were talking "Manic Monday" & the like. I found one at Reader's Digest: 55 Monday Motivation Quotes (#18) that says - “May your coffee be strong and your Mondays be short.” —Unknown. That lead me to a coffee theme with an old Hero Arts label & a Java inchie. After stamping, I colored in the label and the inchie with various Copics; fussy cut the label & die cut the inchie.
Want to play along? It's open to the general public, just with a shorter window to submit. Go HERE for details.
That's it for today! I'm meeting my sister-in-law for crafty shopping at Anchor Paper, our favorite local store. This time I actually need supplies - I'm hoping they have long cutting plates for the Vagabond there. Pray that I don't buy too much else - I'm expecting a couple packages next week from online orders...
Thanks for visiting & happy crafting!!
