# 41 - Pretty Petals

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 us for our last challenge 'Spots & Stripes' - we didn't have many entries this time, 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 also 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.41 - our theme for the next two weeks is ...

I hope this one will be more popular - if you are anything like me, I have to put flowers on nearly everything I make!

BUT please remember, we are a stamping challenge so your project MUST include stamping 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 ...

Midway Motivation - Hearts & Flowers

Welcome back to our 

 'Midway Motivation' post here at 

FANTASY STAMPERS.

I am thrilled to announce that we have our second Guest Designer with us today, who will be joining us for our 'Midway Motivation' during the month of September. So let me let me introduce Leslie ...

http://leslieturner58.blogspot.co.uk/

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. 

A huge thanks to Jan and the Fantasy Stampers crew for having me on board the month of September. Looking forward to getting inky fingers with all of them! ;)

oooOooo

We have only had a few entries so far for our 'Hearts & Flowers' challenge, but here is a gorgeous project from Leslie for a little inspiration ...

A beautiful monochromatic anniversary card

using 'Romantic Stroll' stamp by Deep Red.

Many thanks, Leslie.

So, there is still plenty of time to join us - the current challenge will close on the 12th September, and I will be back with details of our next challenge on 13th September.

Hugz, Jan xx

Now for news on our Guest Designers - I have crafters lined up for August, September and October for our 'Midway Motivation' posts which will appear on the alternate Saturdays to the challenge posts - but we are still on the lookout for more! There will be an opportunity for someone to join us every month as a Guest Designer and this will require you to make two projects on two different themes - this would provide the opportunity 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.18 - our theme for the next two weeks is ...

We would love to see your projects using hearts and flowers either as a main feature or an embellishment.
