SUO Challenge #122 – Fun Flowers!

For this challenge, we're focusing on all those lovely flowers that are in our gardens in Late Spring.  They're not just for serious gardening – they're also there for us to have fun with! Your challenge is to make a project – card or other paper crafted project – with Fun Flowers as a theme.

 

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 May 11, 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:  May 12, 2015  (3 am USA Eastern Time) –

SUO Challenge #120 – Team Colors!

The College Basketball Season just ended (last night!), Major League Baseball has already started, and the NBA and NHL are nearing the end of their seasons. If you've got children or grandchildren in school, there are certainly some kinds of sports underway there, too!  Your challenge this time is to make a greeting card or other project that features the colors of your favorite team – school, community, professional – any kind of team.

SUO Challenge 118, Easter – Our Top 3!

Thanks to everyone who participated in our challenge to feature a project for this coming Easter season. Thanks especially to our Top 3 whom we felt did the best job of capturing our theme for the week!  Click on the pictures of their projects to go to their blogs or galleries for more details.

By the way – for those of you who are in our "Top 3" each week, we have the code for a blog widget over to the left.  Be sure to grab the code if you'd like to announced this on your blog page!

 

Susie Nelson. The sponged sunburst background around the cross image is clean and simple, yet has such a perfect impact for this Easter card.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lindsey Bowe.  How sweet is this bunny basket?!  The darling punch art is beautifully accented by the dotted embossing on the basket and its handle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bronwyn Eastley.  This butterfly on the basket is a perfect ensemble for Easter, using some of the newest Stampin' Up! products!
