SOS #136: Cabin Fever

Happy Tuesday! It's time for a new challenge, and this week we bring you Cabin Fever. No, we don't want you to use a cabin in your project -- how many of you have a cabin image, anyway?! By Cabin Fever we refer to the time of year (at least in the Northern Hemisphere) where the weather is very cold and wet and windy and we are stuck inside, just wishing we could be OUTside. So this week we'd like you to make a card or other project with an outdoors-y theme.

There are sooo many things you could do to depict "outdoors", such as trees, birds, beach, sports ... LOTS of options!

Here's what the gals have made to inspire you:


Now it's YOUR turn! Go into your stash and dig out something that depicts the outdoors. Then make your project and come back here to link up so we can see what you've made!

Mr Linky will be open until Monday, February 3rd (FEBRUARY!) at 11:55 pm. To be eligible for the Saturday Shout-out, please limit your total number of challenges to 13 or less, including ours.

SOS #135: Winter Blues

Happy Tuesday! It's time for another challenge, and this week our theme is Winter Blues. We ask you to make a card or other project with the main color of blue. It doesn't need to be all blue, and you can include any other colors you like, but when we look at your card, we should be able to say, "Oh, blue!"

Here's what the ladies have made to inspire you:

Leslie
Jessi

SOS #133: Use Something New

Happy Tuesday! Thanks to all who played our "Use The Last Of Something" challenge. Doesn't it feel great to actually use up something? :) This week, in honor of the new year, we ask you to use something new. That's right: stash can be both old and new, especially when you are a collector ("hoarder" is such a harsh term).

So break out some of the new stuff Santa brought you, or that you gifted to yourself, or you bought with your holiday gift cards, or maybe something new you've had for a while and just haven't opened yet. *cough*

I'd like to officially welcome our new DT members Barb, Donna and Chris! Let's see what they and the rest of the DT have opened and used for their projects this week:

Alica
new stamps, new washi tapes & sequins 

Chris
new stamps and rhinestone strips 

every component on this card is new (or first time used)

Jessi
new-to-me stamp 

Leslie
new (finally opened) stamp & die, and new button
Lauren
new patterned papers and tape

Donna  
new set of crafty duct tape
Michelle
new letter dies and doily die
Barbara
new stamp

Deena
everything on this card is new...from a kit

Wow, it looks like we've all added to our respective stashes recently. Surprise! (not)

Now it's YOUR turn! Go open a new crafty item or two, use it, then come back here and link us up so we can see what you've made!

Mr Linky will be open until Monday, Jan 13th, at 11:55 pm ET. To be eligible for our Saturday Shout-Out, please remember to link to no more than 13 challenges, including ours.
