I have this great group of sistas - the Sisterhood of Blogging Stampers #9 - and amongst us we have so much talent. Check out my sidebar for each of their blogs...
Anyway, we were kinda quiet over the holidays - you know - life takes over and so many commitments so little time. We have reconnected and I offered to host the challnge for February - so here it is!
Make a card, scrapbook layout, altered gift..whatever, but only use three of each element - all elements..three layers, three brads, three ribbons, three buttons - whatever you choose but three!
Here is mine! Three layers, three brads, three sparkles!
The stamps I used are from SU! Warm Words and Baroque Motifs. The embossing powder is Pearl Hematite from Stampendous!, the paer from Prism, Marcella by K Designs and Metallic Paper from Best Occasions.
Good luck with the challenge - until next time - God Bless!
Cool challenge, Debbie! But it will be hard to use 3 of everything. I'm in and hope to get playing soon! Haven't stamped in a while. So sad :(

This is a cool challenge, Debbie! Hopefully my head will not continue to feel like it is stuffed with fluff and I can think up something awesome for it! :)
Thanks for volunteering to do our first challenge of the year. I think it is what our group needs to get back on track!
Have a great day!

HI Deb! I did it! yeah me!
However, I think I got carried away with the layers. It was too hard to stop at 3 so I kept going to 6!
Thanks for a great challenge!

Just to make it official, I did a card for your challenge! I think I went overboard on the number of layers, though....does it still count?
