Happy Tuesday! It's also virtual Monday for all our USofA peeps, also known as The Day After A Long Weekend. But that means we've all had time to catch up on our challenge back-log and we're fresh and rested for a new week, right? Anyone? Yeah, me, neither.
Aaaaaand, it's ALSO the SECOND ANNIVERSARY of this lil' ole blog! Yep, just two short years ago we appeared in the blogosphere in an attempt to make ourselves use our stashes, and we're so grateful that so many of you have played along with us! TWO YEARS! And we still have so. much. s-crap.
So, to start off our THIRD year, we'd like you to make a Graduation or Anniversary card -OR- you can use something from your stash that is AT LEAST two years old. Make sure to tell us what it is!
Here's what our DT ladies have come up with to jump-start your mojo:
We hope you'll play along with us this week. You have until midnight June 3rd to link up below, and remember to limit your challenges to 13, including ours.

SOS #102 - What's In Your Tool Shed
It's Tuesday, and time for a new challenge. This week's theme is Tool Shed. We'd like you to go into your stash and find a tool (punch, cutter, piercer, crimper, crop-a-dile, eyelet setter, etc.) that you haven't used in ages, or ever, and use it. Be sure to tell us what it is!
Here are some cards from our DT to inspire you:
Can you tell what tool each of us used? Check out the DT blogs for details. I hope we've inspired you to break out some old stuff and USE IT! Who knows, you may fall in love with it again. :)
If you play, please link up below, and please remember to limit your challenges to 13, including ours.

SOS #101 - Scrap Attack
It's Tuesday, and time for a new challenge. This week we have a Scrap Attack. That's right: we want you to attack your scraps. For this week's card, you can use only scraps, except for the card base. That means no cutting into new paper!
If you are like most crafters, you have vast collections of partial sheets of paper and card stock, and cut-offs from 6x6 pads. Yep, I can see you nodding your head. This is a great opportunity to use up some of those "I must save it" pieces of pretties.

SOS #100 Mother's Day or Pink
Happy Tuesday, and welcome to Challenge #100 !!! Wow, 100 challenges. But you know what? We still have stash, and LOTS OF IT, so let's get to this week's challenge: Mother's Day or Pink. If you choose to make a Mother's Day card, well, that's pretty self-explanatory. If you choose to make a pink card, you must use pink as your primary color, meaning at least 60 percent of your project should be a shades of pink.
