Challenge #22

Hey it's Friday and that means that we  have a new challenge for you. The winner  and Top 3 of the USE YOUR SCRAPS challenge will be annouinced on Monday.

What is this week's challenge you might ask? Well we wanted to do something a little different this time.

          With a Child/For a Child

This means that if you have YOUNG children or grandchildren we would like to see you create a card WITH them. If you dont have YOUNG children or grandchildren then create a card FOR a child.

We are being sponsored by 2 Cute Rubber Stamps and they have graciously put up a prize of:
either two cling cushion rubber stamps or 3 digital stamps


2 Cute Rubber Stamps are cute and whimsical rubber and digital stamps that can be used for cards, scrapbooks and much more.  Heidi is the owner/designer/illustrator and loves seeing her cute illustrations turned into rubber stamps.  The BEST thing about 2 Cute Rubber Stamps is that “YOU” can get involved in the creative process by voting on her sketches and submitting ideas or your own.


This week we have some amazing children helping us out.

First of is Ciska who made a card For a child (using To The Moon)


Next is Dee and  her 6yo daughter Emily (using Thank You Cat)

Next is Kitty and her 5 1/2old daughter Lissy (using Turtle Sundae)

Now we have Mariska making a card for a child (using Original Cowboy Kid)

Also Mariska's son Joris, age 9, is joining us (using Thank You Cat)

I made this fun card with my son Wyatt who is 6 (using To The Moon)


Now we have two overy talented children joining us as Guest Designers for this challenge.

                                             First up is TJ who is 7



Next is Isabelle who is 9

Alright ladies AND KIDS, you have the next 2 weeks to dazzle us. Good luck and I can't wait to see all the talented card making children we have out there in blogland.
