Sweet Stamp Shop: Sweet Saturday Challenge 2

Happy Saturday!

I hope your weekend is starting out fabulous! Looking for something to do this weekend? Why not play along with our challenge :)

So let me first thank you all for being so patient with us. We try to inspire you all in so many different ways sometimes it is difficult to figure out how to get it all to you without overwhelming you! Originally the game plan was to have a Thursday Challenge. However, we really felt like the post was so long and maybe just a bit too much. Enter Saturday to save us! From here on out the challenge will start on Saturday and end on Thursday at midnight. We will also be announcing the winners with the new challenge.

Alright now let's get to this week's challenge!

Inspired by an Album Cover

If you remember from the first week I said we would be trying out all kinds of different challenges and this is one of them :) Ready for the inspiration parade?! I am!

Nicole using You Light Up My Life Digi

Anita using It's Raining

Jaime using Across the Miles

Ellen using It's a Man's World

Misty using You Light Up My Life Digi

Kelly using Scootin' By

Stephanie using God Bless America and Sweet Victoria

Aren't these girls just amazing?! I love how differently each of us was inspired. Now I can't wait to see how you'll be inspired!

Interested in another free digital stamp to play along with? Nicole drew up this uber-adorable image for you to get inky with, so fun! Please be respectful of Nicole's design and use this stamp to join in the challenge. Also please review the Terms and Conditions.
