Catching up on my Monthly Challenges

Once the TY cards were made (and the creative juices had found new life-LOL). I set to work on another thing that was long overdue... my monthly challenges with my stamping friend, Jennifer (aka mackbrad on all the stamping boards!). We had started doing monthly challenges to keep us going creatively. We really started to get to know each other in the IA boards and I was psyched when she reached out to *me* (of all people!) to do challenges. Well I started strong, but like everything else stamping, wasn't able to meet the last couple... until now! I had put out the challenge to decorate a notebook that I sent her, and she sent me some acetate to create with the next month. We didn't have a challenge in December (only because I didn't send something out, of course).

I must not have even posted the last few I actually did *on time* (translation: only 2 weeks late) , because now as I am sitting here, I am realizing that I *MUST* have stamped since I last blogged at least a few times, because I was only overdue with two month's worth of projects (if you don't count the non-existent December challenge)... can you see the stamping lightbulb just going off over my head? LOL...oy vey!

Well, I'll have to go back and check on that, but in the meanwhile, here were overdue projects I just sent out to Jennifer.

So here is the notebook...
Stamps: SU - Doodle That, PTI - Paper Trey
Paper: PTI - White CS that they sell (love that stuff!), SU - Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip (craft)
Other: SU-Rhinestone brads, SU and Michael's ribbon, hole punch, SU ink and aquapainter.

And here is my first shaker card for the acetate challenge. This also doubled up as my apology for being soooo lame and non-existent in a stamping way for the last few months *{head down and totally embarrassed}*

Stamps: SU - Doodle This and So Very

Paper: SU - Sage Shadow, Pixie Pink, BG - Stella Ruby

Inks: SU - Cranberry Crisip, Sage Shadow

Other: SU - CC ribbon, Michael's ribbon (pink), SU - Rhinestone brads, Tab Punch, Ticket Punch, Acetate and Beads
