Challenge # 68 - Peaches and Cream

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, 'Thank You' to those of you that joined our last challenge 'Clean & Simple' - we had some fantastic entries, but 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.68 - our theme for the next two weeks 


So, we can't wait to see your 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 ...

Stamp - Clear Impressions 'Feathered Friends'
and Stampin' Up sentiment 

Stamp - Altenew 'Build a Rose'

Stamp - Indigoblu 'Colour me Daisy' 
and Stamplorations sentiment

Stamp - Tiddly Inks 'Fairy Happy'
and LOTV sentiment

MARIA
Stamp - Claritystamps

Beautiful work from the DT once again 
- thank you ladies.

And 'Thank You' to those of you leaving comments
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 13th August.

Midway Motivation - Clean & Simple

Welcome back to our 
 'Midway Motivation' post here at 
FANTASY STAMPERS.

I am back again today with our Guest Designer for the month of July to give you a little extra motivation for our current 'Clean & Simple' challenge. So, in case you missed it last time, here's a bit about Leslie ...




My name is Leslie, I'm married with two grown children and one granddaughter, and I live in north Florida. I began scrapbooking about 40 years ago, way back when scrapbooks were really bland - before all the fun papers and embellishments came about. For the last 20 years or so, my paper passion has been card making. I started out making computer-generated cards, graduated to card kits, then quickly realized that having my own stash of stuff was the way to go! The rest is history, as they say! I'm addicted to rubber stamping and also enjoy making 3-D paper projects, especially paper shoes and mini albums, and have been known to alter a few tins and boxes. Thanks to my sister, I also started beading and making jewelry about a year or so ago.

oooOooo


Here's Leslie's fabulous project for our current challenge ...



Stamps - Paper Smooches 'Simply Said'
and Great Impressions 'Lace Background'

(For full details pop over to Leslie's blog here)

Many thanks, Leslie.

If you are interested in joining us as a Guest Designer for our Midway Motivation posts in the future, simply add GDT after your entry on our current challenge, or contact me by e-mail HERE.

So, there is still plenty of time to join us - the current challenge will close on the 29th July, and I will be back with details of our next challenge the following day.
