Fab Friday 15


Hi stampers!  Happy Good Friday!  We hope everyone has a wonderful Easter holiday and maybe you'll find some time to stamp!  If you do we hope you'll play along with our sketch this week!


Again, remember our sketches are only for inspiration and feel free to use any shapes you want as long as you can still see the general sketch!  You are also free to flip it should you choose as well!  We only want to spark your creativity!  Now let's see what the design team has come up with this time around!

Mindy Backes











Now it's your turn!  Here are some things to keep in mind when YOU play along:

1.  Enter your project in no more than two other challenges.
2.  Link back to the Fab Friday site in your post.
3.  Display our challenge logo on your post (this is the sketch or colors).

And although we are Stampin' Up demonstrators you may use any brand(s) of product you choose. 

The challenge will close at 8am on April 11thth.  Our Fab Faves will be announced on April 12th. 

Happy stamping!

Fab Friday 14

Hi stampers!  Happy Friday!  It's time for a color challenge here at Fab Friday and we have one that's perfect for spring!  But before that we have some bad news and some good news.  First, Jason Casper has had to step down from being a full time DT member but he will still join us as a contributor when he can!  He's got a lot going on right now so we wish him luck with everything else in his life!

And now for the good news!  Since we were losing our only guy...who are few and far between in the stampy world right.....it seemed only fitting to induct another gentleman into the club!  Please help us welcome Justin Krieger from JK Cards!  Justin has played in EVERY single challenge since we started this little blog and look forward to seeing his creations on the DT.  Here's a little bit about him:


My name is Justin Krieger and I’m techie that does computer consulting. I live in Long Island, NY and I have a wonderful daughter Taylor and Mini Schnauzer Winston. I have always done some kind of paper crafting ever since I was little when I made entire car dashboards out of oaktag. I discovered my love of card making in January of 2010 while watching a show on PBS. I saw them make a waterfall card and I thought I can do that so I went out and got some supplies and made one. My friend introduced me to Stampin’ Up! in August of that year and I became an Independent Demonstrator in September. I am completely hooked and take some time to make something every day. It relaxes me and is my wind down at the end of the day!

And now onto the challenge!  Here are your colors should you choose to accept them!



And don't fret if you don't have any Sahara Sand (or the other colors for that matter) because you are free to sub shades that are close if you need to!  I know my stash of Sahara Sand is running dangerously low!  And now for your viewing pleasure are the DT cards:















Now it's your turn!  Here are some things to keep in mind when YOU play along:

1.  Enter your project in no more than two other challenges.
2.  Link back to the Fab Friday site in your post.
3.  Display our challenge logo on your post (this is the sketch or colors).

And although we are Stampin' Up demonstrators you may use any brand(s) of product you choose. 

The challenge will close at 8am on March 28th.  Our Fab Faves will be announced on March 29th. 

Happy stamping!

Fab Fri 13

Hi stampers!  Happy Friday!  We have a fun, fresh, and springy sketch for you this week!

Now, please remember that while you can use the sketch just as it is you can also flip it and/or change out the elements so don't feel like you have to use a butterfly...it's only there for inspiration and we try to vary the sketches so they don't look like the same old same old every time!  You can see how our design team interpreted them right now!















Here are some things to keep in mind when YOU play along:

1.  Enter your project in no more than two other challenges.
2.  Link back to the Fab Friday site in your post.
3.  Display our challenge logo on your post (this is the sketch or colors).

And although we are Stampin' Up demonstrators you may use any brand(s) of product you choose. 

The challenge will close at 8am on March 14th.  Our Fab Faves will be announced on March 15th. 

Happy stamping!
