Challenge #1 for The Rubber Cafe design team call

I used this post Therubbercafe.com Design Team blog: With Sympathy as my inspiration for my first design team challenge. I liked the layout and I got to use my scallop punch and a couple of stamps actually purchased from The Rubber Cafe. (Passport & Suitcase)

With this card I used the masking technique to show the effect of the passport peeking up behind the suitcase, its a great way to have more than one stamped image without using up all your card space. I also popped up the image with foam tape but its difficult to see in the image.

Therubbercafe design team call

YAY I got accepted to participate in the challenges for the design team for therubbercafe.

They have 2 spots available and they picked 7 of us to participate.

First project is due next week so that means I've got some craft room organizing I've got to do ASAP!!!!... We just moved last week and although it's not TOO bad in my little room it's by no means ready to craft in.

Wish me luck and visit their blog often to see what's happening over the next
three weeks during the challenge process.

Stamping DesignTeam

Well my friend Melissa from The rubber cafe & Pugnacious Stamps and Designs has a casting call for new design team members. I asked her to consider me for one of the spots. I just read today that they're going to pick 5 people then give them challenges to do and then they'll pick 2 from them as the lucky winners.

I really hope I get picked, it would give me a reason to scrap (card make) every week and I think it'd be fun. We get to make stuff with her stamps and then post them on their blog and what not. :)

I'm in the process of moving so I think I'll have to make sure I unpack my scrap stuff 1st thing, so I can work on the challenges......assuming I get picked as one of the 5.

Wish me luck.
