Takin' on the Challenge

Don't you just love challenges?  They certainly help me get things done.  There are some awesome challenges on the JBS forum right now ...

March/April Mixed Media - collage

and I so want to play with this challenge every month ... it' good to get out of your comfort zone ...

I had this journal from Creative Cafe ... remember them?  Danelle Johnson's wonderful line?

and I just messed around, trying some things out ...

and then there was a truly fun PacMan challenge where we created our own kit with rules - here's mine:

and we had to make one layout and 2 cards ...

my layout ...

 My cards ... those funky circles are the flip side of the dotted blue paper ...

and Rita started a turtle craze with the turtle paper in her kit, which grew to many making turtle-rific cards ... sort of a challenge within a challenge ...

yes ... my turtle legs are Scalloped Banner punches and the tail is part of the Blue Ribbon punch ...

And the PacMan challenge was for a prize - yep it was!  Not sure if there's a winner announced yet ...

Now I hear there's another fun arcade type challenge:  Donkey Kong - and a prize for this one too! We're talking a $25 gift card!  Oh yikers!  Come play with us!
