Midway Motivation - All About the Girl

Welcome back to our 

 'Midway Motivation' post here at 

FANTASY STAMPERS.

I am back today with our Guest Designer for the month of May to give you a little motivation for our current challenge - 'All About the Girl'.  So, just in case you missed it last time, here's a bit about Kathryn ...

http://kitchentablecrafter.blogspot.co.uk/

Hi, I am a returning concept designer to papercrafts, having taken a break of about five years right after my second son was born. I ran a very busy Etsy shop, Aspen Arts Studio, for a number of years as well. These days I keep very busy with homeschool, managing an urban homestead garden, quilting, crafting and writing. Before I became a mom, I was a concert pianist and teacher with plans towards a music theory professorship and/or advanced English degrees. Life took its turns, however, and I am truly happy now as a homeschool and work at home mom, enjoying the irretrievable time with my boys. Academia can wait, but childhood simply cannot. I love trees, mountains, fresh-baked bread, strawberries, historic places, fabric, farms, world music and a clean house with the windows open.

oooOooo

Here's Kathryn's fab project for our current challenge 'All About the Girl' ...

Stamp - 100 Proof Press

Many thanks, Kathryn.

So, there is still plenty of time to join us - the current challenge will close on the 3rd June, and I will be back with details of our next challenge the following day.

First, a huge thank you to everyone who played along with our 'Flower Power' challenge - we had some beautiful entries once again.

# 63 - All About the Girl

Welcome back to the 

'Fantasy Stampers Challenge'.

Just a reminder if you are new to our challenge - 

your project doesn't have to be 

of a 'Fantasy' nature.

First of all, a big 'Thank You' to those of you that joined our last challenge 'Flower Power' - we had some lovely entries. Please remember that we are a stamping challenge, so unfortunately we are unable to consider digital images for our Top 3. Please don't forget to pop back tomorrow to check out our 'Winner's Post'.

Just to let you know we are always on the lookout for Guest Designers to join us for our 'Midway Motivation' posts on the alternate Saturdays to the challenge.  This opportunity will require you to make two projects on two different themes and would give you the chance to experience being on a design team, without all the extra commitment.  If you are interested in being a 'Guest Designer' please add GDT after your entry below.

oooOooo

So, here we go with Challenge No.63 - our theme for the next two weeks 

We would love to see your 'girlie' projects ...

BUT please remember, we are a stamping challenge so your project MUST include stamping as a focal point and please state clearly which stamp/stamps you used in your blog post (no digital images please). 

Here's what the Design Team made for your inspiration ...

JAN

LESLEY

Stamp - LOTV 'Jasmine - phone'

Stamp - DoCrafts Gorjuss 'The Runaway'

CAZ

about our DT projects - they are very much appreciated.

Now it's over to you - to submit your entry just click on the little blue button below and remember to link your entry back to our blog. We will be around to visit your blogs over the next fortnight and I will be back with details of our next challenge on the 4th June.

Wishing you all lots of luck,
