Challenge # 523 - Don't Be Shy!

Happy Wednesday, all! This week the challenge is "Don't Be Shy" which just means that we want to see projects with more than two words on them. Lots of ways you can do that...say something more wordy than a simple "happy birthday" or "Merry Christmas" (like "warm birthday wishes" or "Merry Christmas to you"), use a quote instead of a sentiment, use a background word stamp or stencil or you can even use text patterned paper! Lots of ways you can join in!

And remember, we're not just about cards....you could make a bookmark, layout, pocket page, altered item, tag - any papercraft goes!

This is what I did...

As you can see I've used some text paper and a three word + one number sentiment. (If you want to use a number as a "word" I'm okay with that.) So, I wasn't shy at all!

If you want more inspiration be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made. Then head on back here and link up your project.

Can't wait to see what you create!

Challenge # 522 - Talk Turkey

Hi!

It´s Wednesday and time for a brand new Challenge at Little Red Wagon.

Doni here and I'm the hostess this week.
I chose the theme "Let's talk turkey".

Anything is OK as long as your card includes a speech bubble!

Here's what I did on the inside:

I love that plaid paper! I think I had a skirt out of that plaid back in the 60's! LOL!

Please link up your projects below! I'm excited to see what you create!

Challenge #521 - Scary It!

Welcome to our newest challenge! Imke is our hostess this week and she's chosen the theme "Scary It!" IMke is looking forward to seeing scary projects, especially given that tomorrow is H A L L O W E E N !

Even though Halloween is not really celebrated in Germany (Imke's country), she does see carved pumpkins at some doors. She used this - and an image from Bugaboo - as inspiration for her scary card!

Now it's your turn to get scary! Pull out your jack-o-lanterns, zombies, mummies and other frightening images and link up your projects below!

Challenge #520 - Don't Forget About Me

Welcome to a new challenge! This week, the challenge is "Don't Forget About Me". We're looking for projects that have anything to do with saying farewell, good luck on a new venture, happy retirement, I miss you, bon voyage, etc. There are lots of possibilities - so look into your Little Red Wagon and put your crafting supplies to use!

I decided to go with a "moose-ing you" card with an image and sentiment from My Favorite Things.

Please link up your projects below! We're excited to see what you create!

Thanks so much to everyone for sharing their wonderful creations with us. Please stay tuned for a new challenge due up soon!

The Story

One day a group of girlfriends got together to play with their papers, stamps, markers, ribbons, buttons and the rest of their seemingly endless supply of other 'have-to-have' scrapbooking and card making goodies. It was so much fun to talk, share, laugh and create with each other that they decided to create a blog that would motivate, inspire and challenge them on a weekly basis to use some of the supplies they have acquired. They also thought it would be fun to have all the other girlfriends out there join in and share their creations based on the weekly challenges. So, grab your wagon full of goodies (we know you have one!), get creative and have fun!
