DTGD Cards & What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 375

Hebrews 11:1  "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."


Hello fellow Deskers!

I have just survived a marathon week of Dare To Get Dirty Challenges on Splitcoast Stampers. We had 42 challenges in 8 days, plus two bonus challenges before the week began! I learned new techniques like Faux Metal and plastic paper background.  I used some stash of backgrounds up from my Gelli plate and other backgrounds. I used stamps I have not used in years.  There is something about DTGD that inspires you to use your stash and your stamps and your supplies of embellishments!  These challenges really get the creative juices going!  I have so much fun every year doing these challenges.  Splitcoast Stampers does this for their Fan Club Members as a reward!  The Dirty Girls or Dirty Dozen and alumni are fabulous hostesses!   I had so much fun chatting with the other participants as we encouraged each other to the finish line! The fruits of my labor are  8 more Christmas cards, 9 birthday cards, 3 thinking of you cards, 2 sympathy cards, 1 very special anniversary card, and gift box, (for my husband for our anniversary) 1 thank you, and 17 friendship cards, that could be birthday or any occasion cards. I have already mailed out 8 or 9 of the cards.  Here is the photo I promised:



Thank you for stopping by and don't forget to stop by Julia's to check out the other deskers!  Have a lovely day!

  2. Wow - well done, Sharon. I have just tried cudgelling my brain to imagine doing 42 different challenges in a week.... it's no good... just can't get there! Phew - what a marathon. The cards are lovely. I should think you are pretty much set up for the next 12 months!
    Take care. God bless.
