changing it up...

Today's challenge is to create an altered project...anything goes.  I chose a home decor piece made with my daughter in mind.  I hope you decide to play along.  Please check the links to the other CHF designers to the right to see what they have created as well.  We would love it if you would upload to the CHF Gallery and share your projects with us.  

 

 

 

here's the top

 

 

I used a new polka dot stamp by CHF from the NEW SCRAPBLOCKS line.  Please visit Lisa Strahl's blog to learn more.   I also used silhouette blooms stamp sets by CHF.  EK Success home decor, Stazon ink.

*Tip use a backgrounder stamp multiple times with different colors to create a unique pattern*

*FF The most common speed limit sign in the US is 25mph* (vroom vroom people)

Happy Memorial Day.  Thank you to our past and present military for their dedication and protection.  What they do for us is truely priceless and greatly appreciated..

How about soem blog candy?  I have an "America The Beautiful" stamp set to give away.  Just link a card or project (old or new) using any 2 of these 3 colors (red, white and blue) and I will randomly choose a winner on Wed.  I will post the winner on Thursday of this week.  (knowing me, I may just have other fun things to give away also *wink* )

OMGosh, I just love this stamp set! I actually just placed my first order this past week from CHF for the store that I manage, and American the Beautiful was in my order! If I won this, I'd have an extra set to demo with! Here are cards I made recently with red, white and blue!
