We would love for you to join us for the challenge. Last week was bad. The InLinkz wasn’t working and what a hot mess. This time, I tested it. If you do have an issue, please let me know. Thank you for your patience. A few members of our design team also came down with the flu. We look forward to staying on schedule and being on cruise control again. Have a fantastic day!

PLEASE remember this: We’re looking for projects posted to the internet AFTER April 24, 2018.

SUOC 197: Favorite Florals

Hello there and welcome to SUO Challenges. We have a fabulously fun challenge for you today!

I think the majority of us have had pretty awful and unusual weather this Spring and are eagerly awaiting a full-blown summer. What better way to beat the Spring snowstorms than to visualize the lovely flowers that we’re starting to see?

Our theme this week is flower/floral images from the Annual Catalog. With the close of Sale-A-Bration and the Spring Occasions Catalog still in full swing, it’s nice to go back to the Annual Catalog.

For today’s challenge, our Design Team takes on the theme of flowers. We hope you are inspired by them to create and enter your own projects. I would also like to encourage you to stop by the design team’s blogs to see all of their incredible work and get to know our new designers too!

We hope you enjoy the wonderful talent we have on board and what they’ve created for your inspiration this week. When uploading your project to social media, please use the keyword SUOC197. We can’t wait to see what you create! InLinkz is provided for you below to participate.

Please welcome 3 new designers! A big shout out to Eva, Raquelle, and Tracie! We are all incredibly happy to have them on the team and your favorites will be returning for our next challenge.

SUO Challenge 196: Spring is About to Spring!

The month of March brings to the northern hemisphere the season of promise – the season of Spring.  Many of us have already had a taste of the season as we changed our clocks back last Sunday. Such as auspicious event definitely calls for a challenge. As we come to the Spring of 2018, your challenge is to create a card or other paper-crafted project celebrating Spring or an event that happens in the Spring.

 

Here are our Design Team members’ takes on the theme of Spring. We hope you are inspired by them to create and enter your own projects in this challenge.

SUO Challenge 194: CASE a Catalog Project!

At this moment, Stampin’ Up! has three catalogs for its demonstrators and customers to enjoy. Each of those catalogs is FULL of great projects to give us all ideas to help us get started on our own projects. Your challenge this time is to make a card or other project based on one that’s featured in either the Stampin’ Up! 2017-2018 Annual Catalog (Creativity Your Way); the 2018 Occasions Catalog (Love it, Live it, Share it); or the 2018 Sale-A-Bration Brochure. One of the words for what we’re asking you to do is CASE: Copy And Share with Everyone. 

Your project does NOT have to be an exact copy of a catalog project. Many of us have found it’s more fun to take a project and add our own ideas and creativity to make a project that’s definitely one-of-a-kind!

Here are our Design Team’s projects, and we hope they will inspire you as you create your project for the challenge.

PLEASE remember this: We’re looking for projects posted to the internet AFTER February 12, 2018.
