Remember there is another week left on our current Winter but not Christmas challenge! 

Saturday Shoutout

Happy (almost) Christmas-y Saturday from Southern Ontario. It's finally snowy here - kids are happy, but tell me: why does it have to snow when we are going for 3 hour road trip? Just to make our life more "exciting"? ;)
Here are our Top 3 favorites from Sentiments Only challenge:

Shopping Our Stash Challenge 82: Winter theme but NOT Holidays!

Hello everyone!  Welcome to Shopping Our Stash!  Our challenge this week is to create a project with a winter-related theme (or cold weather depending on where you live) -but NOT a holiday card.  NO CHRISTMAS!  Think about penguins, hot cocoa, skiing, igloos, ice skating, snow, snowmen, snowflakes, hats/coats/scarves, mittens, etc.

NOTE: this challenge will run for TWO WEEKS to allow our DT some time off!  We will resume our regular weekly challenges on January 1!  We will kick off 2013 together!

A friendly reminder: Please make sure you read the challenge carefully and see the DT examples to make sure your project is following the challenge.  While we appreciate your participation, it is important that the theme is followed.  Thank you for your cooperation!

Now here are the DT projects for this week:

Shopping Our Stash Challenge 81: Sentimentally Yours

Hello everyone!  This week at Shopping Our Stash we are asking you to shuffle thru your stash and pull out those quotes or sentiment stamps- or maybe look into your already stamped/printed stack and see if you have any waiting to be used!   The challenge is to use a sentiment or quote as the focal point of your card- no colored images or stamped images.  Let's make words the focus on this project!
When you are finished, link up with us and remember to limit your links to challenges to a total of 13 including ours.

Shopping Our Stash Challenge 79: Odds and Ends and/or Waiting to be Used

Hello everyone!  This week at Shopping Our Stash we have sort of a wordy challenge title because we want you to use up some odds and ends and/or things maybe that have been hanging around waiting for a purpose...so take a look on your crafty table/space and use some stuff- just tell us what it is! You know how you tend to have one  button in a set left over, or three unmatched brads, etc.   If you look at our DT individual blogs and read the details, it will all make sense!  If you are just totally confused- try to use some of your old stuff and tell us what it is.  That's the simple version.

So, here we go:

Alica

Carla

Jessi

Lauren

Leslie

Deena

Linda

Michelle

Don't forget to tell us what odd/ends, etc. you are using in your post and limit your links to a total of 13 challenges including ours!
