So without further ado, here's this months challenge:
Use something from the mail as part of your card or scrapbook page!
Here's my card. Almost all of my card is made from the pages of a CB2 catalog I got in the mail. I love how it turned out!
And to help you get started here are the other Everything but the Kitchen Sink Hosts to help get your creative juices started. Check out there individual blogs to see exactly what they used out of the mail!
Now it's your turn! Have fun with it, think outside the box, and well just for fun we're throwing in $25 to Papertrey Ink for the winner.
Here's the details:
Create a card or scrapbook page, upload a photo of your card to your blog or online gallery & then come back here to post the link to your photo in the Mister Linky below (please link directly to your card). You have 10 days to complete your card (October 9 at Midnight Central Time)! We'll pick the winner by October 14. Also, this will run through World Card Making Day, where several of the other Challenge Hosts will be making another card to see what else we can come up with! So feel free to use this challenge as part of your World Card Making Day activities!
We would love for you to help us spread the word about Everything But the Kitchen Sink! Please feel free to post the logo on your blog! We hope you all are as excited as we are! I can't wait to see what all of you super talented artist come up with!
Challenge ends Oct. 9 at midnight central time.
