New Challenge @ Shopping Our Stash #SOS583

Today begins a new challenge at...

Shopping Our Stash // #SOS583 ...A "shop your stash" challenge with a theme!!  CHICKEN is the theme for this current challenge!!  What do you have in your stash that would fit this theme??  We can't wait to see your creations in our gallery!!

For my take on this challenge I "shopped my stash" and used a retired bundle from Stampin Up called Hey, Chick.  I could resist this snarky sentiment on today's birthday card.

3 additional challenges inspired today's 1st card...

Cut It Up // #365 ...A "die cut" challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is ORANGE & BLACK.  I used Stampin Up's Basic Black & Pumpkin Pie for my colors and a die from Emma Moore Designs (the rectangle) and one from Stampin Up (the chicken).

AAA Birthday // #89 ...A "birthday" challenge with a theme!!  The theme for this current challenge is USE PATTERN PAPER!!  I used two different pieces, both from Stampin Up...one in Pumpkin Pie and one in Basic Black.

Sketch~N~Scrap // Throwback to #249 ...A monthly sketch challenge!!  I am playing along with their throwback challenge and using a past sketch for today's card.

4 challenges inspired 

today's 2nd card...

Inspired By Challenges // #IB407 ...A "visual prompt" challenge with an optional sketch!!  Inspired by ACORNS!!  I used both the photo and the sketch as inspiration for today's card.  My inspiration from the photo: the acorns and the fall colors.

Just Us Girls // #JUG841 ...A "mood board" challenge!!  My inspirations from this mood board: the girls, the fall colors, and the flowing hair.

Festive Friday // #FF0218 ...An "inspo list" challenge!!  From the inspo list honoring World Cardmaking Day, choose 3 of the 10 elements to include on your card.  My 3 elements are: a decorated envelope, stitching (hand stitched 4 Xs...one on each acorn and 2 and the background papers), and patterned paper.

Time Out Challenges // #TOC322 ...A theme challenge!!  The theme for this current challenge is SEASONAL COLORS WHERE YOU LIVE!!  Even here in Florida things are starting to take on the browns and yellows of Fall...the splash of blue represents all the water around us.
