SUO Challenge #133 – Pocket Cards!

10 / 13 / 1510 / 12 / 15

Have you noticed how many different kinds of pocket cards are showing up on websites these days? No? Well, a quick Google or Pinterest search will show you just what we’re talking about! So many different designs, and so much fun to make! So that’s your challenge this time around – make a greeting card with any theme that includes some kind of pocket in which to put something fun!

Need some ideas to get your creativity started? Then check out our Design Team projects – and have fun with your own project!

To participate in our challenge, make a card or other paper-crafted project and post a photo of it to your blog or a gallery on the internet. Then come back here and use our link tool at the bottom of this post to share the photo with us.

PLEASE remember this: We’re looking for projects posted to the internet AFTER October 12, 2015 This is a NEW challenge! AND please mention/link to the SUO Challenge Blog in your post!

Of course, your projects must be made with Stampin’ Up! products only. The products may be those that are in current catalogs, or they may be retired products. But (as our blog title says) SUO – Stampin’ Up! Only! This means that products from other papercrafting, rubber stamp, die-making or other companies may not be included in your project or in any other project included in your blog post if Stampin’ Up! sells a like product. For example, Stampin’ Up! does not sell sewing thread. So use of sewing thread from another company is just fine. Stampin’ Up! does sell the Sizzix Big Shot, so use of die-cuts, texture plates or other such products from another company is not fine. If you have a question, please send an e-mail to our Coordinator, Robin Messenheimer, and she’ll be glad to answer it!

Challenge Dates: October 13, 2015 (3 am USA Eastern Time) –

October 24th, 2015 (6 am USA Eastern Time)

SUO Challenge #130 – Cards for Friends!

9 / 1 / 159 / 3 / 15

Many of the cards that we make for our greeting cards are for the purpose of just sending a note to a friend. We’re just thinking about them for one reason or another, and we want to send off a note in a greeting card we’ve made ourselves. Your challenge this time is to share with us a greeting card that you made to send to a friend.
