Joshua 1:9 "Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage: be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."
I am home again for a short time! Just spent a couple of weeks of staying with my teenage grandchildren while our daughter and husband were on a missions trip to Germany. I thought I would show you the 35 cards that I with help from my Granddaughter did last week for the Dare To Get Dirty Challenges on SplitcoastStampers.
Some of the challenges were technique challenges, some sketch, some color, just a variety of challenges. Now I have my stash built up again for birthdays, praying for you, and even anniversary cards. All these cards were made with items I took to my daughter's with me in a suitcase on a plane. I took no tools, stamps, or inkpads. I just took, pre folded bases, pre embossed panels, pre made technique panels, precut die cuts, and some embellishments. I just hoped I would have what I needed to meet the challenge. Again, I didn't know what the challenge would be! For a couple of the challenges, we used granddaughter's school paints. It really felt good to be using stash! I should try this more often!
Our granddaughter, when she had time would take a break from all her activities and we would work together to do a challenge. Then during the day I would show her my idea and ask advice between her music lessons, practice and home school work. She really had a lot of good input, on five of these cards in particular and I left those with her to use. Particularly the drippy paint one! She named it Icing on the Cake!
Thanks for stopping by! So glad I could share with you! Now to get ready to go to a 4 day Scrap Retreat tomorrow!
Be sure and check out Stamping Ground to see more deskers! Happy WOYWW!
