My Own Craft Blog Challenges

I really want to start doing my own challenges. Don't get me wrong..i do enjoy the challenges that I participate in but there is still some challenges I would like to see presented. I know there are some things I need to do. Like for 1 I need to get better at blending. 2. I am kinda confused on digistamps. I get it some what. But all the best ones I want to do are not free. Although they aren't costly I am not willing to pay for every one that I like. So I use black/white images. I want to understand the downloading process and saving it. I haven't seen very many good free digistamps so I guess I will keep looking. Please anyone share if they know any good ones. 3 I have to build my tools a little more also because I want to be able to do anything when I present a challenge and 4 I know I need a better following. When I get these down I will start introducing my own challenges. Are there any tips that you can share with me?

HIMCR challenge-125 THANKGIVING


             This is my entry to HIMCR thanksgiving entry.
There was so much more I wanted to do with this card. But what was in my head didn't come out well on paper. I really wanted a plain pumpkin and corn but it didn't work out well for that. I may try again b4 the challenge is over..providing I get my other projects done. A little bummed but I still think it is a good entry.

Hey Fellow Crafters--Great finds At Meijer

Last week in the craft section Meijer's had a lot of empty space. This week there was still some emptiness. But they did fill some of it with a new craft line. Cute items. I was inspired. Everything that I saw was marked $!. I did grab a few things and a clearance item. YAY!! I will surely be going back to see if there is anything new in those empty spaces.
My clearance item was marked $1.99
but I scanned it at self scan and it came up $.89.
Good deals. Good stuff. Check it out!!!

HIMCR Challange-122 Fall colors

I love Winnie the Pooh. I grew up in love with him. My daughter's room was Winnie the pooh when she was a baby. She is totally not into Winnie the pooh but its ok. I still have enough love for him for the both of us. So here is my entry into the challenge. I wanted to do another 1 and have 2 entries but I was having so much difficulty and mistakes yesterday that I gave up. I decided yesterday was not a good craft day. I was wasting paper and I took a break and started fresh today. After a ruff day I Love the end result.  I really really need to get better at taking pictures.              As pooh would say...Oh bother!!
