A new challenge (#51)

Welcome back everyone. I hope you all  have been having a great summer. I know  we all have. My ladies are back and well rested and ready to share their creations with you today.

We have a super fun new challenge for you this time. We are challenge you to
try something new to you, whether it is a new technique, a new style, or a new project type. YES I said project type.
FOR THIS CHALLENGE ONLY, WE ARE OPENING IT UP TO ALL TYPES OF CREATIONS (NOT JUST CARDS). I will mention that you must tell us what NEW thing you are trying out. If it is just a new image, your entry will be deleted. That  is not what this challenge is about.

We are being sponsored this challenge by a NEW sponsor and you will WANT to win this challenge.

My Creative Classroom is joining the CMM sponsor family. 

Welcome to My Creative Classroom. MCC is an online arts and crafts learning center. Our interactive and in-depth courses are instructor led and filled with wonderful projects and techniques to help you get the most out of your supplies.

My Creative Classroom is offering the winner of this challenge a free seat to any one of their online classes. The free seat is good for one year after you claim it.  The Fall semester will kick off right after labor day so you will have plenty of classes to choose from right away!

For those of you who don't win, head on over there anyway and check out their Free Courses, this may  inspire you to take one of their other courses. They have a ton of great ones to choose from. 

Now let's see what NEW things the CMM ladies tried out. 

                                    Lisa  tried a corner bookmark

                                        Lizzie tried a new stamping technique

                                         Penny tried a new coloring technique

                                          Sara tried a new image technique

ALSO BIG ANNOUNCEMENT ON THE BLOG ON MONDAY. PLEASE CHECK BACK. 

VACATION

Happy Friday to you all.

I wanted to drop by and let you all know that there is NO challenge this week. I was a nice boss lady and gave all the girls a summer vacation. That also means that I was a nice challenge momma and I am giving you all TWO MORE WEEKS to get your card  made for the 1, 2, 3 Recipe Challenge.

AWESOME.

Play along with us and then don't forget to stop by on the 17th for a new challenge with a super exciting new sponsor.

HUGS TO  YOU ALL. Enjoy your summer (or winter if you are down under)

Happy Friday

Challenge #49 - RUBBER

Happy Friday to you all. I hope you all have had a wonderful week, and those of you in America, I hope you have a most enjoyable Independence Day.

Are you all ready for our awesomely cool new challenge? You are? Well good because this will be a fun one, and possibly a challenged for you. With the introduction of a new sponsor to the CMM team I thought it  would be good to come up with a theme that meshes well with the sponsor. I also thought that lately in the world of card making we have become so addicted to the instant gratification of digi stamps. Well this week we are getting back to our card maker roots and BUSTING OUT THE RUBBER. That's right ladies, dust off those tried and true rubber stamps and ink them up to your hearts content. 


And as I teased the new sponsor to you, hopefully you have guessed that it has something to do with  rubber stamping. We are bveing sponsored by an {ippity} chick. How awesome is that. Please welcome Maria, to the CMM sponsorship team.

I am a SAHM with 6 year old boy/girl twins and a very supportive husband of 12 years.  I started stamping about 12 years ago and have loved every minute of it.  A few years back a little company called Unity started and I loved their images from the get go.  Then they created a "sister" company called {ippity} stamps.  When I found out I can be an {ippity} chick I was excited and signed up right away.  I'm thrilled to be promoting the Unity line called {ippity} and to call myself an {ippity} chick.  

{ippity} can be ordered on the Unity Website at unitystampco.com all you need to do is pick a chick and I would love to be yours.  I would love to have you come join me on my {ippity} Facebook page called Got {ippity}?  (https://www.facebook.com/pages/GOT-ippity-Maria-Levines-ippity-Fan-Page/307662595951514)  and my blog at Ria Creations (http://riacreations.blogspot.com/).

Maria will be offering up an {ippity} prize pack to the winner of this challenge. That's definately worth  playing for isn't it? 


Maria also has a lovely card to share with us using the itty bitty Live Half Full set. 

Here are our amazing Design Team samples to get your mojo flowing!
